Hotel Melchiori in Andalo

Take a seat and maybe some popcorn....this is going to be a long review!
Just to make it easier, let's start saying that this hotel should deserve 6 stars!
I cannot compare it with the other hotels around because I've never been there buy I can tell you that here you will find a beautiful and lovely cosy place, all cladded in wood with a huge amount of details, plus vibrant colours in between. Just at the entrance (which is at the lower level), you feel very, very welcome.
The rooms are big enough to move around easily. They are very warm, but what I loved most was the views. My room was facing the centre so I could see the church tower, which was beautifully illuminated. Exactly on the opposite end of the corridor was the room of some other people in my group, and they had a beautiful view facing the mountains. I could spend right there hours just watching that picture!
The restaurant room is again with lots of details, paintings and photos. Most of the tables were occupied, however, even during the dinner it wasn't too noisy. What I really enjoyed here was the buffet with plenty of veg and their focaccia, which was realllly good! Even in the morning, the same area was offering plenty of cakes, yoghurt, croissants, and so on. Even eggs and bacon. I think I tried something different every morning.
One thing that I deeply appreciate was the kindness of all the personal in any moment of the day. Since the breakfast until the after dinner when I was getting back to the bar asking for some warm water for my kids, everyone was always there with a smile on their face, ready to help. They made me feel really like part of the family... not just a customer.
And there's still more. There's a very relaxing area with a swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, massage, steam baths and probably more. It's a beautiful space with glass panels beside the swimming pool facing the mountains. Really nice. The pool is not huge, so it could get a bit crowded, but there is so much to do that you will always have a choice.
Then, what about kids? Well, they have their own couple of guys who every day organise activities for the kids and every night play baby dance and games to keep them entertained. And my kids (with ages from 1 and half to 9 years) all loved that. At the very beginning, I thought this could be a bit overwhelming, but that's the grown-up point of view. In the eyes of a 8/9 years old kids, this was the best way to meet new friends and have fun! Thank you so much, guys, for all the energy that you put in this.
And to conclude, the location. 10 minutes walking to the ski area, 5 minutes to the bus, basically in the centre and with the mountains right at the back, separated only by the valley...it sounds like unbelievable but it's true. The first evening we arrived there was a wonderful sunset with every colour from yellow to pink just between the mountains in a perfect view from the hotel car park. I took it as a good sign and it really was.
Hotel Melchiori is perfect for a relaxing holiday between the Dolomites. Both for families and couples. I'm looking forward to spending some time there again!

Excellent hotel near the center of Andalo. Spacious and clean rooms. The swimming pool is the exceptional SPA and for those who want to be more independent they also have apartments always connected to the hotel. This year I went to Andalo three times in three different hotels and I think the best is this one. ADVISED. Despite being close to the center there is a beautiful view.

Great hotel. Good position for ski area. Very clean and comfortable. Owner and workers are very nice. Good for everyone that likes a cozy place. Great new SPA

I highly recommend this hotel: location near the center, excellent food and plenty of it, very clean, there is also the spa included in the price ... there is also the entertainment, never intrusive, in the morning organizes walks, afternoon and evening miniclub for children! Play it safe at the Melchiori hotel!

I stayed in this hotel from Friday to Monday at the end of August 2021. The structure is spotless, the staff very kind, the breakfast good (I would have preferred something more in the salty),
It is located near the center of Andalo (about 200mt) so with all services at hand.
They accept dogs without any problem and without supplement.
Wonderful experience.

A nice experience. Central hotel, panoramic and spacious room, great food and very kind staff. Excellent value for money.

Excellent structure, in particular we appreciated the courtesy and helpfulness of the owners. Large rooms and impeccable cleaning service. A note of merit also for the excellent quality cuisine and attentive to the needs of children.
