“Hotel is overall good, Plus: you can eat well and diversified. For dinner Good salad buffet plus a menu. Multiples sauna option with wonderful relaxation chairs, good self-service tea corner with dried fruits u can enjoy while doing spa. Hotel organize nice free tours with professional guide . We enjoyed two withe guide Moris, it was really fun special the sun rise tour. Staff is discreet and polite. Minus: spa treatments are to avoid. I did facial cleaning and got immediately huge spots on my front head manicure pedicure and other treatments were not that good.”

“We loved our experience here. Room was comfortable, quiet and cozy, and also quite spacious (we took the Schlern room). Food was everyday amazing, from breakfast to dinner. The Sauna area was modern and really nice. We used it everyday. The convenience was outstanding. We went there by bus from Munich to Bozen and there we took the public transport, which stops literally at the hotel's door (station is called Erica), so you don't even need a car (unless you plan to be out in the wild after 18). To the skigebiet you just say what time you want to go and when to come back and the hotel shuttle (free) will take you there in 10 min. If you need equipment, you rent it in the store 5 min down the road and it will be available for you in the hotel's depot, right in front of the shuttle, so you don't even need to bring your own shoes to the lifts as it is really door to slopes and slopes to door. The ski passes were also provided by the hotel (of course you pay for it yourself). Super convenient and stress free! I would recommend it 100%!”

“Our stay at Wellness & Vital Hotel Erica was truly unforgettable this fall. From the moment we arrived, the service and staff were exceptional. Our rooms were tucked at the back of the resort in a peaceful, scenic setting that was wonderfully quiet at night. Everything was spotless and had the cozy charm of an Alpine villa, combined with all the modern comforts. Petra and the front desk team (Felix and Kathrin), Peter at the bar, and Simon in the dining room all went above and beyond to help our little group plan day trips and explore the region. The spa was absolutely spectacular. We loved moving between the different areas, from the refreshing ice room to the warm sun lamp room to the calm, tranquil spaces made for pure relaxation. Our treatments at the Wellness Spa were also outstanding, especially the care and expertise from JoHannah. Be sure to sign up for the inclusive package and take advantage of the breakfast and dinner, the menu is spectacular and tailored to every palate imaginable. The hotel’s location in the Dolomites is perfect for outdoor adventures year-round, whether you’re hiking in the summer, skiing in the winter, or enjoying everything in between. I’m already looking forward to returning, hopefully with another small group in tow. Until then – vielen Dank und bis später!”
