Unbelievable Views! Hotel Cima Rosetta: My Italian Dream (and a Few Little Headaches)

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I'm about to spill everything on my recent trip to Unbelievable Views! Hotel Cima Rosetta. Let me tell you, the name? Not an exaggeration. But also, prepare for a review that's less "perfectly polished travel brochure" and more "honest, slightly frazzled tourist who just loves Italian food."

The Good, the Gorgeous, and the Gasp-Worthy (Views!)

Seriously, the views. They are the entire reason to go. Mountains that pierce the sky? Check. Valleys that stretch forever? Double check. I spent, like, a whole afternoon just staring out my window, practically drooling. They got the name right.

Now, for those with mobility issues, this place is a mixed bag. Accessibility is a thing, and they do have some features. They've got an elevator, which is a lifesaver, and they advertise facilities for disabled guests. BUT, and this is a big but, navigating around the place feels a little… labyrinthine. I'm not in a wheelchair myself, but I could see it being tricky in some areas. I do have to give kudos for the car park, it's got a car power charging station, and the car park [free of charge] is a brilliant option.

Once you're in your room, well, it's mostly wonderful. The Wi-Fi is free in all rooms! (Hallelujah! And the internet access – wireless works like a charm). My free Wi-Fi, however, wasn't the only thing I found in my room. So, let me tell you about the Air conditioning, it was a Godsend. The Air conditioning in public area felt like the second coming. I also enjoyed free bottled water and daily housekeeping. Then there's the in-room safe box, the hair dryer, the slippers and the bathrobes. I, unfortunately, didn't have the pleasure of using any interconnecting rooms.

My biggest love was the window that opens, but the blackout curtains were an absolute necessity to block out the strong sunlight. The desk, the laptop workspace, the mirror, and the reading light were a bit less exciting, but necessary.

The bathroom? Well, it was adequate. Towels were fluffy, and there was a shower, a separate shower/bathtub combo. The additional toilet was nice though! Toiletries were provided, but they were the generic kind, not the luxurious ones you dream of.

Food, Glorious Food (Mostly)

Let's talk about sustenance, shall we? This is where the real magic happens in Italy, and Cima Rosetta mostly delivers. They've got a whole host of dining, drinking, and snacking options. The breakfast [buffet] was a solid start to each day. The Western breakfast was actually quite delightful! Honestly, the coffee/tea in restaurant was divine. I even tried the Asian breakfast once, just for the novelty, but I'm a Western gal at heart. It seemed like a lot of options, however, I was looking for some desserts in restaurant, and I couldn't find them, what a shame!

The restaurants themselves were generally good, though I'd have to say the salad in restaurant was a bit… meh. The bar’s happy hour was great. A poolside bar is, of course, a must, and it was pretty decent.

I didn’t get to try the room service [24-hour] as I was already full, but the restaurant options were varied, with quite a few restaurants to choose from, and a vegetarian restaurant. I'm a big fan of soup in restaurant, and I tried it multiple times!

Wellness Woes and Spa Sparks

Okay, so I'm a sucker for a spa day. And, the Hotel Cima Rosetta promises. They have a Spa/Sauna. They have a steamroom, swimming pool and a Swimming pool [outdoor]. I wanted to experience it all, but I was only able to experience the sauna, which was nice and hot.

Cleanliness & Safety: A COVID-Era Reality

Let's get practical – the Cleanliness and safety situation was pretty good. They had a lot of precautions in place. They were using Anti-viral cleaning products, and they were doing Daily disinfection in common areas. I was glad to see Hand sanitizer everywhere. I noted there were individually-wrapped food options at the ready. The staff were wearing masks and seemed genuinely concerned about safety. I felt reasonably secure, which is a huge plus these days.

Services and Conveniences: The Little Things

They offered a lot of services! Contactless check-in/out was super efficient. The Concierge was pretty helpful, directing me to the cash withdrawal and helping me with currency exchange, which was a huge lifesaver. I also appreciated the dry cleaning service. Laundry service was done, but it didn't feel as safe as they claimed.

I also used the luggage storage as my checkin and checkout were very early!

Now, for the Quirks (and the Slightly Frustrating Bits)

No hotel is perfect, folks. And Cima Rosetta had its fair share of imperfections. The pool? Gorgeous. But the sunbeds? A bit… worn. And the service? Mostly friendly, but sometimes a little… slow. It was a small price to pay for the views, though.

Final Verdict: Book It (But Manage Your Expectations)

Do I recommend Unbelievable Views! Hotel Cima Rosetta? ABSOLUTELY (with a few caveats!). The views alone are worth the trip. The facilities are generally good. The food is tasty. And the staff are friendly.

However, if you're expecting perfection, you might be disappointed. Embrace the quirks, the occasional slow service, and just soak up the breathtaking scenery.

Hotel Cima Rosetta - BW Signature Collection San Martino di Castrozza Italy

Alright, buckle up, buttercups! This isn't your glossy, Instagram-perfect travel itinerary. This is real life, happening in the shadow of those ridiculously majestic Dolomites. We're heading to Hotel Cima Rosetta - BW Signature Collection in San Martino di Castrozza, Italy. And frankly? I have opinions. Let's see if this place can live up to the hype, yeah?

Day 1: Arrival and the "Oh My God, Those Mountains!" Surprise

  • Morning (Because who really gets up early on vacation?): We land in Venice. Ugh, Venice. Beautiful, yes, but also a chaotic mob scene. Finding the rental car was an adventure in itself. Think sweating, shouting ineffectually at GPS, and nearly running over a gaggle of pigeons. Don't let anyone tell you driving in Italy is easy, unless they're lying.
  • Afternoon (The Mountains Hit You Like a Ton of Bricks): The drive to San Martino. Honestly? About an hour of sheer, unadulterated wow. We're talking jaw-dropping scenery. I mean, pictures do not do these mountains justice. I swear I almost cried. Like, ugly-cried. The sheer scale of them is just… it’s overwhelming. We're talking serious "pinch me, I'm dreaming" territory.
  • Late Afternoon/Early Evening: Hotel Check-in and Immediate Disappointment (Followed by Slight Redemption): Arrive at Hotel Cima Rosetta. The facade looked promising, all charming "traditional" architecture. But the lobby? A bit… sterile? A tad too business-y for my taste. The check-in was efficient, which is fine, but the lady behind the desk seemed busy. The room? Decent. Clean. Small. A tiny balcony. Sigh. Did I mention the view? Spectacular. Okay, I'll give them that. It's a redeeming quality.
  • Evening: First Pizza. And a Moment of Zen (Sort Of): Finding a restaurant. The hotel restaurant was booked solid, so we wandered down to the town. I swear, I was hangry! Found a cute place. The pizza? Divine. Absolutely simple. Pure. Perfection. I may have eaten an entire one myself. We finished our food. Outside. The air was crisp. The stars were, well, stellar. Feeling that perfect mountain air combined with the best pizza made me consider staying here for the rest of my life, and that is saying something.

Day 2: Hiking, Hamstrings, and Existential Dread (Maybe)

  • Morning (The Hike From Hell… Almost): Ambitious plan: a hike! We'd seen the trails, so we grabbed a trail map and set off, all optimistic and fit. Famous last words. The altitude? A beast. My legs? Twinging. My lungs? Gasping. My partner, bless his heart, kept encouraging me, but I may have uttered some very un-family-friendly words under my breath. We didn’t give up, and it was glorious at the top. The views, again, were indescribable. I felt a sense of accomplishment. (And I still feel it, even if my muscles are screaming two days later.)
  • Afternoon (The Gelato Incident): Post-hike reward: gelato. Because, Italy. We found a tiny gelateria, the kind that looked like it had been there since the dawn of time. I’m not even going to begin to list all the flavors. I ordered something fruity and refreshing, but maybe I should have gone for the chocolate, which was really what I was craving. It was fine, but I was distracted by someone else's gelato -- the perfect shade of pink raspberry.
  • Late Afternoon (Spa Time… Sort Of): Back at the hotel, there was a spa. It was a "small" spa, and it felt more like a glorified basement. The jacuzzi was lukewarm. The sauna was okay, but nothing special. I'm sorry. This wasn't what I expected. I really needed a massage, and for whatever reason, I just wasn't in the right mood. That being said, the staff was nice.
  • Evening (Restaurant Roulette): Dinner. We went to the hotel restaurant. It was booked, so we searched. We ended up somewhere completely different. A little too rustic, with questionable lighting. My steak was undercooked (a cardinal sin in my book). My partner's pasta was a bit bland. Service was slow. I'm not saying I threw a fit, but let's just say I politely but pointedly requested the bill.

Day 3: Nature, Coffee, and a Moment of Peace (Finally!)

  • Morning (The Waterfall, the Butterflies, and a Surprisingly Good Coffee): I demanded we find a waterfall! I had seen several waterfalls earlier in the trip. Driving in the mountains, we found a waterfall. The spray. The mist. The cool air. It was pure bliss. Afterwards, we stumbled upon the tiniest, most charming cafĂ© EVER. The coffee? The best I'd had so far. And the croissants? Flaky, buttery perfection. We sat outside, just enjoying the morning sun and watching the world go by. I felt a genuine sense of peace, which, frankly, was long overdue.
  • Afternoon (The Gondola Fiasco): The gondola was a huge win. We’d planned to go to the top of a mountain. I assumed it would be an easy ride. I was wrong. This one was old and rickety. It swung around. There was a bit of a line to get on. And the views? Again? Amazing. You can see pretty much the whole valley.
  • Late Afternoon (Packing Up): The last thing I wanted to do was pack, but it was necessary. I packed up my bag, trying to keep myself in the present: the sights, the smells, the sounds.
  • Evening (Goodbye, San Martino, and a Hopeful Future): One more, final pizza. Another gelato. A last sunset over the mountains. The food was great! I'm sad to leave but, I'm also ready for whatever comes next. We'll see.

Final Thoughts:

Hotel Cima Rosetta? It has its charms. But maybe it isn't perfect. Still, the mountains… those magnificent, soul-stirring mountains… they've healed me, and I'm a better person. And those views? Always and forever.

So. Would I recommend it? Yes, with caveats. But mostly? YES. Just go. Prepare to be utterly blown away. And bring your hiking boots. And maybe a good book. Because let's be honest, you'll need something to zone out with while you're waiting for that lukewarm jacuzzi to heat up.

Unbelievable Views! Hotel Cima Rosetta: Your Dream Italian Escape? (Maybe...)

Okay, seriously, what's the view like? Is it *that* amazing?

Alright, buckle up, buttercup. The view… is… look, I'm trying to be objective here, but it's a *problem*. A glorious, soul-crushing, make-you-want-to-weep-with-awe problem. When they say "Unbelievable Views!" they aren't kidding. I'm talking, *jaw on the floor* levels of beautiful. Mountains stabbing the sky, fluffy clouds doing their best to photo-bomb every vista, and that crisp, *mountain* air… It's worth the price of admission, the grumpy desk clerk, and the questionable coffee, *just for the view*. Seriously, I spent like, a solid hour just staring out the window the first day. I almost forgot to eat my breakfast; that's how mesmerizing it was! I swear, I felt like I was *in* a painting. Now, that said… it IS a bit… *much*. Constant beauty overload! You’ve been warned.

Is the hotel itself actually *nice*? Or is it all just for the view? (Be brutally honest!)

Okay, confession time. The hotel… is… well, it's got a certain… *charm*. Let's go with charm. It's older. Let's go with older. And by older, I mean, possibly from the 1970s. The elevator? Sounds like a dying robot. The hallways could use a fresh coat of paint (and maybe exorcism). My room? Slightly… *lived in*. The bed sagged a bit, and the shower pressure was… optimistic (think a particularly enthusiastic garden hose). But BUT! That’s where the big BUT comes in… it’s clean. It’s *generally* well-maintained. And honestly, the staff, despite the grumpy desk clerk, were lovely. And that view… well it overshadows a multitude of sins. Think of it as an old, beloved aunt who smells vaguely of mothballs, but who gives the *best* hugs.

Let’s talk about the food. Don't sugarcoat it.

The food... Ah, the food. Okay, let's be real. It's not Michelin-star quality. It's solid, hearty, Italian home cooking. Breakfast was your standard continental fare - croissants, some questionable (but edible) coffee, and a selection of meats and cheeses of varying quality. Dinner? Expect lots of pasta, sauces that might be a little too tomato-y (or not tomato-y enough depending on the day), and meat that, let's just say, isn't the *star* of the show. BUT, and this is important... when you're staring out at that view, a mediocre plate of pasta suddenly tastes like *heaven*. And after a day hiking in the mountains, honestly, anything warm and filling hits the spot. There was one night, though… they served this... "special" goulash. Let's just say it was… an *experience*. My stomach and I had a *very* long conversation the next morning. Still, the red wine? Always a win.

The Staff: What's the deal? Are they friendly? Do they speak English? (Specifically, the grumpy one!)

Alright, let's dissect the staff... It's a mixed bag, honestly. The younger ones? Super friendly, helpful, and spoke pretty good English. They were always smiling, offering advice on hikes, and generally making you feel welcome. Then there's… *the grumpy desk clerk*. Oh, him. He's basically a mountain of silent judgment wrapped in a tweed jacket. I'm pretty sure he speaks *some* English, maybe, but he prefers to communicate via raised eyebrows and a pointed finger. I almost thought he hated me, but I think that's just his *thing*. Still, he was efficient, and he got the job done. And by the end of the week, I think I saw a *tiny* hint of a smile. Maybe. Or maybe I was hallucinating from the altitude and the questionable goulash.

What's there to *do* besides stare at the view? (Because, let’s be real, you can't *just* stare.)

Okay, so you've got the view covered. But seriously, you can't *just* sit there and gawk. There are things to do, unless you're me, and then you *totally* will just sit and gawk. The hotel is a great base for hiking. Trails galore! Varying difficulty levels, from "strolling through a meadow" to "hugging a cliff face for dear life." Prepare your legs (and maybe your will to live). They have info at the front desk, and the friendly staff are super helpful with maps and recommendations. There's also skiing in winter, but I went in the summer. There are some tiny, charming villages nearby. You can explore, eat gelato (essential!), and pretend you’re in an Italian movie. There are also a few (very few) shops in the area. Don't expect much, or you'll destroy your vacation. But, you know, exploring the little towns is cute. But don't come here for a shopping experience.

This goulash keeps coming up. What *exactly* happened?!

Okay, fine. Deep breath. The goulash. It was advertised as a "special." It looked… alright, I guess, like a big, brown stew. The first bite… well, the texture was… *unusual*. Think… slightly gritty… possibly containing ingredients I couldn’t identify (I'm still not entirely sure what those black bits were). The taste? A symphony of… *uncertainty*. It was simultaneously bland and intensely… *something*. I suspect a large quantity of paprika was involved. My stomach and I waged war for the next 12 hours. Let's put it this way: I spent a *significant* portion of the night acquainted with the hotel bathroom. I barely made it, I'm not going to lie. Don't let this scare you off, though! It's just one dish. And the rest of the food was fine!! Just... maybe avoid the "specials."

Is it a good place for kids?

Honestly? Probably not the *best* place for little kids. The hiking trails, depending on the route, can be pretty challenging. The hotel doesn't have a ton of amenities geared towards children, like a pool or playgrounds. And, well, the whole "quiet mountain retreat" vibe might not be the best fit for a gaggle of screaming toddlers. That said, teenagers who enjoy the outdoors would probably have a blast. There's plenty to explore, and the views alone might be enough to keep them off their phones (a parent can dream, right?). But, if you have small kids who might be difficult with the quieter environment, maybe consider a different place. Or, prepare for a very, very long trip.
