I disagree with another Reviewer, the hotel staff DO replenish the buffet breakfast.

Breakfast was well stocked and good every morning.

The spa and delicious complimentary breakfasts are nice touches, too.

Natale and the hotel staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean and breakfast was yummy.

The free breakfast was good and just what was needed before a day of yomping up hills.

We had a superior room with two large terraces and fantastic mountain views; really cosy room and comfy bed; lovely breakfast; and the staff are wonderful, especially Stefano on the front desk.

Rooms were great, beautiful woodwork, clean, well appointed, excellent breakfast daily.

A beautiful fresh breakfast is also included every morning.

The views were fabulous, the location is great, the room was quite large (the balcony gigantic); the staff so warm, welcoming, and helpful,  a bountiful breakfast, and great parking right on site .

Breakfast was included in the room rate and was a buffet with a good range of food.

Lovely breakfast and super nice friendly helpful staff ..

She made breakfast all the more enjoyable.

I can’t say enough good things about the buffet breakfast with meat and cheese variety, eggs, lots of pastry, yogurt and fruit salads.

Breakfasts were ample and a good selection.

It's a well run hotel, with good breakfast.

Breakfast is healthy, delicious, and plentiful.

There was some construction outside the hotel as Cortina is preparing for the Winter Olympics

Recent reviews had said there was construction on either side and while the sites were visible, I must have gotten lucky with timing because there was no active construction going on during my visit.

The hotel is wedged between 2 buildings under construction.

There is some road noise and there is currently construction ongoing around the hotel.

however due to such a noisy room and the fact that breakfast wasn't topped up once it had ran out (even with an hour remaining), I must rate this hotel as poor.

Thought the breakfast was quite poor and rooms lacked air-conditioning, I will recommend this hotel.

Our only complaints would be the poor WIFI reception and noisiness in 1st and 3rd floor rooms (we ended up moving rooms in the middle of our stay).

Only one thing, wifi in the room was poor, so I had to go to the lobby or a breakfast room to use internet fast.

Staff was friendly and watched our suitcases while we we went hiking after checkout

The only too things that bothered us (other than bathroom quickness, see title) is a faint wooden odor, and poor sound insulation (we could hear people in the corridor, as well as our neighbors).

The breakfast was quite poor and rather tired looking.

Breakfast is a bit poor and could be improved.

The hotel is in a great location for skiing (the ski bus stops directly at the hotel) and is only a 5-minute walk from the city center.

We recently stayed at Hotel Natale for two wonderful weeks on a family skiing holiday.

Rooms are very cozy and we had the luxury of having two balconies -  luxury to sit in the balcony after skiing and enjoy the sunshine.

As we were skiing every day the most important thing was the breakfast and the shower.

Yes we would stay there again if we returned to Cortina perhaps get a bigger room if you intend skiing and have lots of gear.

Everyone was so helpful with tips on where the best skiing and hikes were,they also made us up a sandwich boxes for the bus back to Venice,which was really good,as we had to leave before 8am.

We used the spa for one evening, it's a worthwhile extra expenditure (only 14 euro each) to relax after skiing, especially given that you have the area to yourselves for two hours.

All up, a wonderful week's holiday, skiing prang notwithstanding!

The lovely restaurant area is available to be used by guests who wish to bring their own food to the hotel, which is a great facility to have after a tiring day of skiing with children.

Very friendly & helpful staff with some great skiing & restaurant recommendations from Stefano.

We stayed at the Hotel Natale on a short skiing break and it was perfect for our needs.

If you are in Cortina for skiing, it is highly recommended to bring/rent a car!

If you want to go skiing outside Cortina (ie.

We stayed in Cortina for a week of skiing and loved our stay at Natale.

I highly recommend this city, I'm sure coming back for a skiing vacation soon.

Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, giving us detailed directions for skiing, restaurants, etc.

but the snow was best at Cortina since the slopes on top are so high (early April skiing with NO crowds).

One day we returned from skiing at 14h and we wanted to go to wellness

The staff were lovely and welcoming, they even left us a very thoughtful honeymoon gift.

Staff was very friendly and helpful with all questions. Room itself (bed, bathroom, etc.)

The building is beautiful, staff is friendly, and amenities are excellent.

The staff were very helpful and if you needed something such as extra tissue all you had to do was ask.

But the staff there was very kind and nice.

From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with friendly and welcoming staff who were eager to help me settle in and make the most of my stay.

Great service, welcoming staff, clean rooms & comfortable bed kept us happy all the stay.

The staff is very friendly, helpful and professional.

The guys at the front desk were exceptionally helpful for suggestions on activities, restaurants, and locations in the area which made our stay here so much better!

The staff were fantastic - so pleasant and helpful, and they spoke brilliant English!

The staff were warm, friendly, and helpful.

The only issue for us was the road noise which, of course, the hotel can do nothing about!

It's on the main road so during the day there is a bit of road noise

Considerable Road Noise; Had to upgrade to a superior room for an extra €25, just to reduce noise levels.

Could not hear what we said due to the heavy traffic on the road outside.

It is on the main road and therefore we heard the noise from the road

Yes, the street noise can be distracting.

The hotel is on a main road so there is constant car noise.. if this annoys you then you better ask for a room with mountain view and in the middle (with not sides to the main street).

There was a balcony on each of our rooms and we could look out upon the beautiful church/bell tower with the mountains behind.

Possible to sit on the balcony for breakfast and watch the square right in the centre of Cortina.

We had a room with a balcony which is very nice when you want to catch some rays away from the crowd.

Beautiful rooms and each with its own balcony.

I had a single room with balcony, facing the ally and the church's bell tower.

Breakfast was a nice spread, and we had a balcony with a view of the bell tower and the mountains.

- good beds
- spacious rooms
- very friendly staff, they even bought a baby chair as they didn’t have one in the beginning of the week
- The hotel is perfectly located in the center, with possibility for parking
- big balcony

Two rooms had balconies which overlooked part of Cortina, and the other room had a great view of the mountains.

On the superior room there was also a balcony included.

Both rooms we stayed in had lovely balconies with views of different areas.

We had a great room with a balcony and the staff were terrific.

View from the balcony of Socrepes and it’s wonderful slopes (as they prepare for the women’s World Cup downhill next week).

We stayed on the very top floor and had a balcony.

Beautiful view of the church from the balcony.

We had two adjacent rooms with a connecting door on the top floor with a balcony overlooking part of the city and the mountains.

Balcony overlooking the church a lovely surprise.

We loved sitting out on the balcony for breakfast.

The interior of the room and balcony were all wood.

It was just as great as the fist stay, with the bonus that our room, on the top floor, had a balcony with amazing views of Cortina and the Dolomites. It's hard to believe that this hotel is not more expensive than it is; the location is literally steps from the heart of Cortina, the family who runs it are incredibly friendly and laid-back (told us to just wheel our dirty bikes through the lobby to the bike storage room!)

It's a very well-run family hotel - very clean and comfortable, and the breakfasts were excellent.

Breakfast was good and and we especially appreciated the visible efforts to minimize the usage of single use plastic amenities and waste.

As soon as you get there, they fill you in on the process: wifi, complimentary breakfast in the morning, and a room off the lobby to store skis and other equipment.

Room was large with a great shower, breakfast was fine - cereals, croissants, ham, cheese etc.

Delicious breakfast, really good coffee from the espresso machine and above all homemade crostata made by our charming hostess.

Hotel Montana is perfect little family managed hotel with very friendly and welcoming staff, spotlessly clean rooms, good breakfast and fantastic location.

They serve a very European style Breakfast which is included.

The breakfast were excellent and very substantial; with every choice you could possibly want to start your morning right!

For the fair price per night, Hotel Montana provides you with a great breakfast spread.

Hotel is located in the city center, very kind and helpfull staff, nice rooms and good breakfast.

The breakfast was typical Italian, more than enough to fill you up.

Also walking distance from the bus and delicious restaurants!

Great location, great breakfast, friendly staff, good value.

Now I've got to take action through my credit card to get my money back.

He told us we could not charge our phone here.

Wifi: small charge of 2 euros for our 3 day stay.

Traveled with my little dog, no charge for her.

Only downside was that the wifi had a small charge (which was per-device as well), from memory I think it was E2 for the stay.

Pity they charge a small fee for internet access

Breakfast is sufficient, one of the weakest we have come across and none has ever charged extra for a carton of yogurt!

but once keeping the balcony door closed during the first hours it keeps the disturbances out very effectively so we really do not understand what other guests have bern complaining about in previous reviews.

Because it is an old building, the walls are not insulated well to prevent noise from others.

Only con's were the breakfast room could not seat everyone at once which was odd, and our room had a locked door to the next room (I imagine it converts to a larger family room if unlocked) which didn't provide much sound proofing.

While the location in the center of town is very convenient, one night there was a bit of noise.

The street noise level was also rather high because you needed to keep the windows open and there was quite a bit of traffic noise already at 5am.

The sound proofing could have been better, as the noises from other rooms could be disturbing if people are being loud, or yelling in the hallways.

Don't ask for the balcony if you are noise sensitive, this did not bother us at all because we were up early everyday to get to the mountains anyway.

although driving around the village is a nightmare  We stayed there out of season so it was quite quiet

A church is close by so do expect to hear the bells ringing in the morning.

To be able to wake up to the beautiful sound of the bells.

However you can hear EVERY sound from the surrounding rooms, walls are thin.

Yes, the hotel is old & the rooms are small,

Our room was rather small, hot (no air-conditioning which was a problem during the heat wave) and had a very uncomfortable bed, not very long - which would be a problem for those over 6 foot.

Brakfast room is quite small and can be crowded at times,

I spend whole 2 weeks here at single room. First I was given a very small room with no balcony ( there was a bath which I did miss at new room ! )

The room was really small and old-style-chlalet

The owner Adriano is a legend,a wealth of local knowledge and knows a thing or two about Curling too!

I asked for him to ring the owner so I could speak to him and he refused.

As ever the staff are super friendly, the location in the centre of town is incredible and the prices very reasonable.

Everyone at the front desk was also super helpful!

Ran by a friendly family who were very helpful.

Staff were all very helpful and friendly except for one very arrogant, uncompassionate old man at reception.

The owners and the staff always helpfull and friendly.

The Catholic Church is located right across the street and they ring the bells all day at specific times.

There is always someone at the front desk with a smile on their face, ready to assist you in anyway!

The front desk staff is very friendly and helpful.

The owners are usually around depending on the time of day you check-in and the staff is warm and welcoming.

But what makes it stand out is the friendly welcome from the Hotel team.

The hotel is excellent choice and warmly recommend it to the future visitors.

There is a cute dog named Penny (I think she is the owner's dog) and we loved seeing her in the lobby.

Outstanding family run hotel in the centre of town.

Right in the heart of town, amazing views, and great amenities/service!

I visited because my Grandparents came from this town.

The location is right in the center of town -- in front of the bell tower.

Hotel has a great location in the heart of the town and is a very good value for your money.

Hotel Montana was our first choice in accommodation, as it is situated right in the middle of the town.

Five minutes walk from bus station, opposite the church bell tower in the Center of town.

Perfect location in the walking district of town.

It is in the middle of the main walking street with all the shops and entertainment, and opposite the church and square in the middle of the town adjacent to the bus stop to go to the ski slopes.

Informal and very cosy ambiance in hotel and the location cannot be beaten - smack in the middle of this posh jet-setter town.

We started and ended a 7 day hiking trip here and found the hotel to be very comfortable and in the town center, pedestrian area.

We had a great stay in this cozy little hotel located in the town center.

The hotel is in a good location in the town, close to restaurants and shops, with free parking nearby.

Plus, it is located right in the center of town on the pedestrian zone and has free parking right outside the hotel.

There actually are a series of very good directional signs as you drive into the town, and Hotel Montana was one them.

Hotel Montana is located at the center of the town and easy to find.

We thought the town would be full of all the cyclists we'd competed for space with on the z bends of the road

We rented a car in Venice for a one day trip to Cortina and was fortunate enough to find the best hotel in town.

but I was told the only rooms left were these two identical rooms sharing a wall with the lift - one of the rooms I'd been offered previously.

The art on the walls is the owner's personal collection from over 25 years of gifts from artists who have stayed at Hotel Montana.

The walls were very thin, so we heard our neighbors comings and goings and conversations all night long (well past 3 am).

but for many of the buildings down town, examine the dolomite quarried from around town, the rock sometimes contains small fossils in the building's walls.

The linens were dirty, the toilet and bathroom were not clean (hairs) and the ceiling and walls had mold stains.

The continental breakfast buffet is varied and delicious and both restaurants were great.

Breakfast everyday started with a tower of sweets (I called it carb-loading) and even one morning it may have started with a chocolate torte for my birthday!

The food at the restaurant was great and the breakfast was fast and easy.

Breakfast is ordinary something you find in any 3 star hotel..

The rooms, the mountain views, the breakfast, the spa and the service are some of the best we have ever experienced.

Champagne for breakfast Food quite good, except hamburger.

I want to give a special thank you to Fabio and Ilaria who made my dinner and breakfast special!

The spa facilities were utterly beautiful and the breakfast included a large array of choices and was served in an elegant setting.

The breakfast is excellent, loads of choice and delicious.

It's on a hill at the edge of the center of town with spectacular views from the rooms, the breakfast room and the deck for having an afternoon cocktail.

Special mention for Giovanni at the reception, Artjom at the breakfast, Diana at the reception and all the other staff are super courteous.

the food at the restaurant was good both for breakfast and dinner.

Breakfast was outstanding with a wide selection of a la carte items to choose from.

The breakfasts were just fantastic - I am not sure I have eaten a better morning meal in my life.

The breakfast buffet is very versatile and meets every wish.

I did not eat at the hotel other than breakfast which was in a lovely setting overlooking the garden and the mountains.

The all inclusive breakfast is extensive and more than we expected.

The restaurant had a nice breakfast buffet and we also had dinner, which was very gourmet.

but bar & lounge a bit pricey and empty … that is the only downside.

You have to pay for parking (€20 outside, €40 inside per day).

As others have mentioned, the only thing I can fault the hotel on is the 20 euro/night parking fee for outdoor parking.

A free shuttle takes you into the town of Cortina whenever you like ( except at lunch and dinner for 45 minute break time) till 10 pm. My only gripe was the need to pay €20/day for parking ( and €40 for undercover parking!)

but there are other hotels closer to town and half the cost that are almost as nice.

Having to pay 30% deposit four months in advance, I always find this annoying

The food is overpriced and not as stellar as the rest of the experience,

The wine list - short, mostly sold out and incredibly expensive.

I felt this was quite mean for the price paid.

Certainly not at that price and not even at half the price.

though their prices are 5* Deluxe the service is grossly subpar for such place.

however make sure you save some cash for a taxi to get back as they are very expensive - less than 1km was €20!

The House keepers have stolen a very expensive crocodile belt, first day of my arrival.

one might overlook the hotel's weaker points were it not for the hugely and over-the-top expensive room rates - in short a very good option for cortina, and hopefully management is contemplating an upgrade, at least to bring hotel into the 21st century.
