The Sport Hotel ~ Arabba

4* Hotel Accommodation

The Sport Hotel is a delightful alpine hotel offering luxury in wonderful surroundings. It sits in a prime location just above the village centre, 30 metres from the main ski slopes and lift stations.

Inside, amidst its beautiful furnishings and ornately carved woodwork, you will feel relaxed and at home, whilst simultaneously enjoying the sensation of being somewhere special. Its hospitable owners, the Pra family, work hard to ensure their guests are comfortable here, whilst also providing a 'sense of occasion' and a healthy feeling of self-indulgence. In the beautiful bar and sitting areas, you can either perch on a bar stool with a beer or seek out a quiet corner and sink quietly into an armchair with a book.

The Sport Hotel comes with the services you expect from a four star hotel. The cuisine is excellent, as is the wine list. In the health spa, there is a fitness room, sauna, Turkish bath, splash pool, masseuse and more. For a relatively small supplement you can stay in one of their luxury suites. These are spacious and exquisite and amongst other luxuries, come with a hydro-massage bath, which will no doubt ease the aches and pains of a long walk!

Self Catering in Arabba & pedraces

The quality of our self catering is good. Some properties are newly built with most mod cons; others are more rustic in character. All are comfortable and spacious places to come back to after a day out in the mountains.

They are self-contained and usually situated in a chalet also housing two or three other apartments. In all cases, bedrooms are separate from the living/dining/kitchen area.

Chalet Andi
Self Catering ~ Pedraces

We also have a couple of self catering apartments in Chalet Andi (pictured right). It is about 300 yards from Haus Valentin down an attractive wooded lane, so it is easy to drop in for a drink and a chat with our resort-based staff and other guests. Naturally, people staying at Chalet Andi are welcome to join organised walks, snowshoeing excursions or ski days and this can be arranged simply by dropping in to Haus Valentin. Or they can use Haus Valentin to seek out itinerary ideas and suggestions should they wish to spend their days independently.

The apartments are ideal. They consist of a double bedroom, a bathroom (with shower, washbasin, WC) and a living room, which incorporates the kitchen and dining area. In the living room there is also a double sofa bed. See the bottom of the page for Chalet Tabia, self catering in Arabba.
