Dolomites family lodging

Hello! We are looking at a summer trip to the Dolomites, likely staying in Ortisei or surrounding areas. I'd love suggestions for affordable accommodations for a family of 4. I'm hoping to find something under $400 per night ($300 would be better!). Not looking for a resort or wellness retreat, and we don't need anything fancy. In an ideal world it would be an apartment-style place, but a hotel/B&B is fine too.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Hi,

Our trip is in August 2026, a peak season. I contacted a few places, most said they have minimum required stay for a week or Sunday arrival. Bnb Villa Angelino is okay with less than a week, but you have to arrive on Sunday.

We'll stay for 5 nights in Ortisei. I booked Garni Snaltnerhof at the center for Ortisei. I think it was a little over EUR300/night This is for a double room.
Someone from Tripadvisor suggested this garni to me.
We will not have a car, so central location is a must. If you have a car, there will be more options outside Ortisei.

There is another thread under Italy that I posted the place we stayed while in Ortisei this year. Several others posted as well. My place is a two star hotel where we rented a small apartment. There is a larger one with two bedrooms there as well. We liked it a lot.

The Dolomites isn't known for being a budget destination. By family of four, do you mean 2 adults + 2 young kids or 4 adults? If it's the latter, then a room for less than $400/night is not easy. Also, I strongly suggest you pin down your lodging choice before the end of 2025 or by Jan 2026. Europeans often book their summer vacations one full year in advance. In addition, many hotels or apartments keep their rooms available for their regulars.

My family of 3 stayed in one Triple Room
at Hotel Antares in Selva for around $350 per night. It was more affordable than other options in the area and it didn’t have a 5-night minimum stay requirement. We enjoyed our stay there. It has family rooms .
