ITALIA

So This Is
Summer.

The old money guide to the Italian Dolomites. Cortina to Corvara, first lifts to last spritz.

THEY SAID THE ALPS WERE FOR SLEEPING. WE SAID OTHERWISE. SWITCH TO WINTER

THE HOUSE VIEW

Eight towns. Two seasons.
One standard.

The Dolomites are the most beautiful mountains in the world, and the best addresses among them have been perfecting the art of the season for a century. We cover the towns that matter, the hotels with history, the tables worth a detour and the slopes and passes in between. Edited, opinionated, unbothered.

WINTER, WORN WELL

Two seasons,
equally dressed.

Winter is the society season: pistes, furs, long lunches at altitude. Summer is the connoisseur\'s secret: passes for the drive, meadows for the walk, terraces for everything else.
