Hotel Oswald, Selva, Italy

Dating back to 1986, the Oswald was once considered to be the best hotel in the Dolomites, and remains as one of Selvas most historic hotels.

With elegant alpine interiors, a gourmet style restaurant, and a great location this property is a great choice for your next break.

Free shuttle to the lifts

The Ciampinoi gondola is only 350 metres from the door and there's a free shuttle to get you there in the morning. Additionally the bus stop is nearby so you can easily make your way between the different areas of the Val Gardena - beginners will enjoy the sunny slopes of Alpe di Siusi or Plan de Gralba, while the more advanced skiers will enjoy one of the longest slopes in the Dolomites, La Longia in Seceda.

Cosy and traditional

The Oswald retains its charm, the cosy rooms are spacious, and furnished with warm wood throughout and many of them have lovely views of the resort and surrounding mountains. The elegant public areas are ideal for catching up with friends and family, head up to the lounge and enjoy the mountain views from the conservatory or enjoy a drink in the cosy bar area.

Alpine specialities

You can enjoy delicious dishes at the Restaurant Oswald. Start your day off at the breakfast buffet which includes local breads, typical alpine cheeses and cold cuts, pastries and otherseasonal produce. Look forward to a delicious evening meal in the elegant dining area, the seasonal four course menu is inspired by the local Ladino flavours and tastes of the Mediterranean. Once a week there is a Tyrolean theme night, so you can taste some of the regions specialities. There is an excellent wine menu too, be sure to ask the staff for their recommendation.

Wellness Area

When you get back, try and get some time in the spa - there's nothing better than soothing tired legs in the whirlpool or steam room. The wellness area also features a sauna, solebath and whirlpool. Give your achy ski legs a break and book a massage or treatment with the masseur, its a little extra cost but well worth it.
