FORESTIS is located in a densely wooded area, 1,800 m above sea-level, with a view of the Dolomites. The area’s unique and outstanding natural character had already prompted the Austrian monarchy to establish a tuberculosis sanatorium at precisely this special site. FORESTIS lies in a sheltered sunny location on the southern slope of the Plose mountain in the South Tyrolean Alps, directly opposite the impressive massifs of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Site. The extraordinarily pure Plose spring water, fresh mountain air, many sunny days and mild climate, where Adriatic currents meet air masses from the North, have a favourable effect upon the health and well-being.

From the moment we arrived at FORESTIS, it was clear we were in a very special place. Located high in the Dolomites above the town of Brixen (about a 30-minute drive), this design-forward wellness retreat offers a rare mix of tranquility and nature immersion. Hiking trails start right at the hotel’s doorstep, winding through forests and into the mountains. We had no need for a car or guide. DESIGN & ROOM: The architecture is stunning in its simplicity — natural wood, clean lines, and floor-to-ceiling windows that allow the mountain landscape to pour into every space. Our room was minimalistic with an incredible view. There’s no air conditioning, but with windows open, the fresh alpine air made for restful, cool nights. However, I wonder how this is during the summer months or if the weather is bad. SPA was a true highlight with multiple saunas of different types and temperatures (including a panoramic sauna with Dolomite views), steam rooms, and cold plunges. RESTAURANT: The dining room has theatre-style seating facing the Dolomites — a natural backdrop where you can enjoy the sunset. We had a our own assigned table for the duration of our stay for every meal, adding consistency and personalized service. Dinner was a creative multi-course tasting menu at Michelin-level. There’s also a daily detoxification tasting menu. The bar features a curated list of craft cocktails, including excellent alcohol-free options and is a great place to start the evening. SERVICE: Friendly and attentive. Loved it and can't wait to return!

There is only one word to discribe my experience with Forestis : WONDERFUL. From check in to check out , we felt like we are treated like a family member of the hotels. Everybody is warn and friendly. It's the place I felt like I am back home. I would recommend to stay at the tower suite as it offers the best view you can have on the dolemite. It is a resort full of activities for guest. And if you choose to clear your mind, you could always spent your time in the spa or the swimming pool. Do recommend to go for Half board option as the dinner provided is truly magnificent. And it's fine dining experience. I would like to shout out to, Enrico, Audrey and burno for their fantastic service. They are warn, knowledgeable and funny. 10 out 10 experience indeed.

Ah, where to begin with this perfect, beautiful hotel. Everything in here is incredible. The architecture, the service, the people. Everyone was so kind. We went for our honeymoon and were welcomed with champagne and snacks in the room. Everyone in the staff is so helpful and kind; and the skiing was great. The spa is also amazing with 5 saunas. Dinners are 7 courses which we didn’t skip any because the cuisine here is magnificent. Truly the best hotel we have ever stayed at, we can’t wait to come back. Thanks to everyone in the staff that made this stay so special!

Top notch hotel with breathtaking views from the room and dining venues, high level of privacy across hotel, excellent service, on of the best spas I have seen in my life (and I have been to a lot). In addition, very good staff, attentive but not too present. Highly recommended
