FORESTIS DOLOMITES * * * * *
62 suites with breathtaking views of the Dolomites, plus a 2,000 m² wellness area.
The Forestis can boast of being an exceptional place. With 62 suites and a breathtaking view of the Dolomites, a Unesco World Heritage Site, the building is a dream come true. After a day of skiing, let yourself be tempted by their 2,000m2 dedicated to well-being. Outdoor hot tubs to enjoy the landscape, organic herbal sauna and hammam, impossible not to be relaxed at the end of your stay. The restaurant offers refined dishes cooked with local ingredients. The bar's cocktails are inspired by the forest.

5 nights
Tower suite room with half board (breakfast and dinner)
I am a bit torned to give this place a 3-star rating.
But, after a few months of digesting our experience and our stay there, I feel its time to give my review and my thoughts about Forestis.
+ DOG FRIENDLY!!!!! And adults only!
+ Checking in was really pleasant, nothing special, but it went fast and we felt welcomed.
+The room was AMAZING with an amazing view. We loved everything about the room. The balcony, the bed and the little couch area. Its also super nice that they have the outside "bed" for you to also relax in.
+ Spa was really good! Big space with sun beds (inside) with a connecting indoor pool to the outdoor pool. Saunas and relax rooms were amazing. I loved the forest sauna, which was outside! It looked and felt clean.
+ Food was really really good, we got a dedicated table (same table) that were used every breakfast and dinner.
+ Signed up 5 minutes before the hiking trip that is offered from the hotel and it was amazing. Big shoutout to the tour guide Herbert!!!! He was amazing and really cool. I brought our two dogs with us on this hike. I think hike in overall took around 3 hours.
(+-)Something worth mentioning is that the first 5 or so hours, the shower did smell like sewer, but it eventually went away, so we didnt felt the need to raise our concerns.
- Gym was so small with so few equipments. Too many people in there that were waiting to use the machines. I decided to just not go there the next days.
- So one of the biggest reason that made us give 3 star is actually regarding dinner service. We had a great server, but I think there was some miscommunication. The first night we had the set menu, which took 2-3 hours to complete. It is totally fine and we understand that. But the second day, we asked if it was possible to order from the á la carte, because we didnt wanna spend 3 hours on dinner. We were told that it wasnt possible, and that we could only switch out the food from the set menu. If we would do á la carte, it wasnt included in our half board package that we paid for.
This really gave us anxiety the next days for our dinner service. We actually thought about not even going to dinner, scared to be sitting there for 3 hours each dinner, but after getting so fed up with the set menu, we decided to call directly to the reception and ask if á la carte is actually included in our half board plan, WHICH IT WAS. I think this was also forwarded to the restaurant after our call and it was no problem for us to order á la carte onwwards.
I just think that a 5-star hotel would be more clearer about this. It is not fun to be paying this much of a money and feel bad before going to the restaurant.
Overall - I do believe that this hotel is worth staying at. It is worth the money to stay at this location with a room directly to this beautiful view. And they also have great tasting food. Hopefully no one else will have this experience with the dinner as us.
Wir kommen definitiv wieder und freuen uns jetzt schon darauf!
Mais plusieurs expériences sont venus gâchées cela, commençons avec le dîner où ils oublient de vous apporter le vin avant de vous ramener les entrées, on a dû redemander au serveur pour avoir notre bouteille commandée avant le repas.
J'ai commandé des fleurs pour ma copine car comme écrit plus haut c'était son anniversaire, ils ont oublié de mettre de l'eau dans le vase, après 2 jours les fleurs sont mortes, ils m'ont remboursé le prix des fleurs mais je tiens quand même à rappeler que nous sommes dans un hôtel 5 étoiles à 1000 euros la nuit. Ce genre de détail montre que Forestis n'est pas digne de leur étoile. Car oublier de mettre un peu d'eau dans des fleurs c'est d'avoir aucun respect pour le client.
Cette dernière expérience est l'un des plus graves, pendant ma baignade dans leur somptueuse piscine j'ai remarqué un Rat mort à l'intérieur de la piscine, je me suis empressé de prendre une photo et d'avertir le staff qui à immédiatement retirer le rat. Je leur ai demandé de faire un nettoyage, on m'a assuré que la piscine était filtrée tous les jours, dégoûté par ce que je venais de voir, je ne souhaitais plus mettre un pied dans cette piscine car à la vue de ce rat rempli de germes, en parlant avec le manager il m'affirme que cette situation était toute à fait normal car nous sommes en pleine nature, alors si c'était un renard, un loup ou un ours, je comprendrai vraiment MAIS un rat ne peut pas venir de cette forêt car rempli de neige et une température très basse, il ne peut pas vivre dans ce genre de conditions, du coup le rat vient de l'hôtel, quand je disais ça le manager adjoint ma souris et m'a dit « on ne sait pas, il n'y a pas de preuve ». Ils ont laissé leurs clients nagés dans la piscine même juste après avoir enlevé le rat, sans attendre le cycle de nettoyage. (Vous pouvez admirer le rat en photo si dessous).
Ma pire expérience d'hôtel 5 étoiles de ma vie, que le manager vous dise que c'est normal de retrouver un rat mort dans la piscine car vous êtes en plein milieu d'une forêt enneigée et des températures négatives, que je répète ne sont pas des conditions où un rat peut survivre.
Bref à fuir
