Garni Criss

Love, love, love! We are on a 4 month road trip across Europe, and we felt so comfortable and welcome here. I searched for hours trying to find the perfect place in this area, and we were not disappointed. Our room was cozy, spacious, and clean. We got lucky with a balcony room - I would highly recommend booking one ahead of time as the views are incredible. The hosts are so kind. The breakfast is great - tons of options. And you can pretty much walk out the front door and run right in to some incredible hiking trails. (Or take one of the many cable cars in the area.) There is free parking, and a sauna (sadly we didn't have time to use). They do not provide kettles in the room for coffee/tea. And just a small side note - breakfast starts at 730, so if you want to get out on to the trails earlier, plan accordingly.

The Garni Criss hotel is located in the Alta Badia village of Colfosco on the Dolomites Sellaronda. When looking for an appropiate place for my biking group, I was surprised by the high rating of this hotel. Almost half a year before the trip I phoned and on the other side of the line I was welcome by Annelies soft and calm voice. This family hotel is run by Annelies and Albert, and when we left after seven nights we felt part of the family. Annelies laugh fills the hotel space with good energy and this is all the secret. The breakfast is perfect and rich. After you ordered, Albert brings the scrambled eggs to your table and after 2 days, Annelies knows how you like your coffee and she prepares it for each guest. Only 2 nights we had dinner at the Garni Criss, and maybe these were the 2 best dinners of the week. Albert is a chef and the modest menu consists of typical ladin kitchen together with italian one. The vegetable soup reminded my mum soup. The handmade nioqui was the best nioqui in town. The fish plate and the mixed grill plate were huge and tasteful. The modest spa includes a sauna, a steam bath and a whirlpool. The spa mint flavour is smelled at the reception and helped my bikers relax after the long ride days. After one week at this family hotel, I understood the high rating: it is not because the facilities or the food (that were excellent) but because Annelies big heart. Highly recommended

Very nice hotel with big rooms. We had two double rooms that were interconnected. Close to the slopes, you need to walk 50 meters before putting the skiis on. Great breakfast and very nice staff. It is possible to order dinner in the hotel restaurant.

Hotel in posizione perfetta con vista magnifica sul sellaronda, perfetto in inverno per chi scia. Personale eccezionale gentile e disponibile per ogni esigenza del cliente. Ottima la colazione e la pulizia dei luoghi comuni e delle camere.

Siamo rientrati ieri dalla Val Badia dove abbiamo alloggiato a Colfosco presso il Garnì Criss. La struttura è accogliente e confortevole, dotata di camere arredate con gusto, nel tipico stile Tirolese. Il bagno dotato di doccia e vasca, entrambe con idromassaggio, e doppio lavabo. Il cambio della biancheria da bagno, morbida e profumata, viene effettuato non appena gli asciugamani vengono utilizzati. La pulizia è eccellente e la sensazione è quella di trovarsi a casa propria. Per chi non si accontenta, c'è una bellissima SPA con sauna a vapore, sauna finlandese e una enorme vasca idromassaggio dove trascorrere momenti di piacevole relax dopo aver sciato. La colazione è ricca e composta da una selezione di formaggi, affettati, frutta, dolci vari, tutti prodotti freschissimi. La cena è a richiesta e propone gustosi piatti tipici. La conduzione è famigliare e i titolari sono di una grandissima gentilezza e disponibilità. Insomma, di meglio non si può chiedere. Abbiamo vissuto una bellissima esperienza che ripeteremo anche l'anno prossimo!

Il Garni è in ottima posizione, alle porte del paese di Colfosco, la camera è spaziosa, pulita e silenziosa, la colazione è ricca e molto buona. La signora Annalise è un'ottima padrona di casa con una vera passione per il suo lavoro, bravi! 5 stelle
