Where to stay at Lake Misurina: hotels by area

Lake Misurina hotels sit in four areas, and the right one depends on why you are coming. Sleep on the lake at Misurina if you want to step out of the door onto the 2.6 km shore path. Pick Lago d’Antorno or a hut on the Tre Cime road if the trip is about an early start at the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Choose Auronzo di Cadore, 24 km down the valley, for a town with restaurants around you. Choose Cortina d’Ampezzo, 14 km over Passo Tre Croci, for evenings out and for winter.

Misurina is a hamlet of Auronzo, not a town: a road along the west shore, a handful of hotels, and not much else once the day visitors leave. Its tourist office was closed in October 2026.

Lake Misurina hotels by area

Area	Distance to the lake	Parking	Restaurants nearby	Who it suits
On the lake at Misurina	On the shore, or a few minutes’ walk	Hotel car parks; public lakeside parking is paid in summer	Hotel restaurants, little else	Lake views, walkers, families
Lago d’Antorno and the Tre Cime road	Antorno is about 1.9 km by road; Rifugio Auronzo about 6 km past the toll barrier	Chalet car park; Rifugio Auronzo needs two toll slots (€80 for a car in 2026)	Dinner at the chalet or the hut	Sunrise at the Tre Cime, photographers, hikers
Auronzo di Cadore	24 km by road, 25 to 35 minutes	Ask the hotel when booking	Many in the town centre	A town base, summer bus users
Cortina d’Ampezzo	14 km over Passo Tre Croci, 20 to 30 minutes	Hotel car parks; free but limited in the historic centre	The town centre	Evenings out, winter, trips without a car

Two things narrow the choice quickly. Of the nine places below, only three publish prices on their own websites, and only the Grand Hotel Misurina gives exact winter dates. And no scheduled bus has reached the lake since 5 October 2026, so outside summer a hotel at Misurina means arriving by car.

Hotels on the lake at Misurina

These five hotels are on the lakeside road or a short walk from it. All five are on Booking.com.

Grand Hotel Misurina

The biggest name at the lake is also the most confusing. The Grand Hotel Misurina you can book today stands at Via Monte Piana 21 on the north-west shore, directly on the water, and Blu Hotels runs it. It is not the historic Grand Hotel. That building, on the south shore, opened in 1899, stopped working as a hotel in 1940 and later became the Istituto Pio XII, a children’s health centre that has been closed since the end of 2022. Its story is in our history of Misurina.

The newer hotel is open from 7 May to 20 October 2026 and again from 4 December 2026 to 14 March 2027. No other Misurina hotel publishes exact winter dates. Outdoor parking is free and the garage costs extra; you cannot reserve either. There is a paid spa for guests aged 16 and over, and up to two small dogs are allowed at €30 per dog per day. The hotel publishes no prices. It suits a lake-view stay, a winter trip or a holiday with the dog: see the Grand Hotel Misurina on Booking.com.

Hotel Lavaredo

Hotel Lavaredo is at Via Monte Piana 11 on the west shore, and the Regione Veneto tourism portal lists it as right on the lake. It has a spa and a car park. Guests get 10% off snowmobile trips towards the Tre Cime, and the hotel arranges ski, e-bike, mountain bike and boat hire. Its website has summer and winter pages but no opening dates and no prices, so ask before you plan around it. Couples who want the spa after a day’s hiking are the natural fit. Hotel Lavaredo on Booking.com

Hotel Sorapiss

Further along the west shore at Via Monte Piana 15, Hotel Sorapiss is a three-star hotel that the regional portal also lists as right on the lake. It has rooms and apartments, takes small pets on request, and serves lunch from 12:30 to 13:30 and dinner from 19:30 to 20:30. Parking is free in its own outdoor car park, first come, first served. The site shows no opening dates and, in October 2026, “no offers at the moment”. The apartments make it the lake hotel for families who need more than one room, and it suits hikers too. Hotel Sorapiss on Booking.com

Hotel Miralago

Hotel Miralago is at Via Guide Alpine 3, at the north end, on a short road that ends in the hotel’s own car park. The hotel says it stands in front of the lake; the regional portal measures it further out. Call it a short walk from the north shore. Being off the lakeside road makes it the quieter choice, and it suits hikers. It publishes no season dates and no prices. Hotel Miralago on Booking.com

Hotel Dolomiti des Alpes

This 17-room hotel at Via Monte Piana 26, at the north end, puts Lake Misurina a 3-minute walk away and Lago d’Antorno 20 minutes. Parking is free for cars and motorbikes, with an unpaved overflow area nearby. It is the only lake hotel that shows room rates on its own site. In October 2026 they ran from €140 for a triple with a forest view to €336 for a family room facing the Tre Cime, with a usual minimum stay of three nights. The page attaches no dates or season to those prices and does not say whether they are per night, so treat €140 as a starting point and check your dates. Families, and anyone who wants the Tre Cime from the window, should look here first. Hotel Dolomiti des Alpes on Booking.com

Lago d’Antorno and the Tre Cime road

These two suit a trip built around the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Both serve dinner, and there is little else nearby in the evening.

Albergo Chalet Lago Antorno

The chalet faces Lago d’Antorno at Via Monte Piana 33, about 1.9 km by road north of Lake Misurina. The toll barrier for the Tre Cime road is about 500 m further up, and the summer shuttle stops outside. The regional portal lists a car park.

It is also one of the few hotels here with a price list, though the page shows no year. Checked in October 2026, a standard double cost from €150 between 10 January and 20 June and from 14 September to 24 October, and from €200 between 24 December and 9 January and from 21 June to 13 September. Suites started at €250 and €300 in the same two bands. Prices are per room with two buffet breakfasts; an extra bed is €30 and dinner €30 per person. The list has no prices from 25 October to 23 December, which suggests the hotel closes then, but it does not say so. Ask.

Early starters and photographers chasing the Tre Cime reflected in the small lake at dawn will like it, and so will couples. Albergo Chalet Lago Antorno on Booking.com

Rifugio Auronzo

Rifugio Auronzo is the Italian Alpine Club (CAI) hut at the end of the toll road, at about 2,320 m (some sources say 2,333 m), right under the Tre Cime. It has 25 rooms and 99 beds, from doubles to six-bunk dorms. Its booking page says it opens from 27 May to 31 October without printing a year, and the Comune lists it as open to the end of October 2026, weather permitting.

The hut is not on Booking.com, so you book it direct on the Rifugio Auronzo website. Half board, with drinks extra, checked in October 2026:

Month	Dorm bed, per person
May, June, October	€90
July, September	€95
August	€100

Doubles cost €220 to €240 and triples €330 to €360, depending on the month. The page does not say whether those are per room; read them that way. Showers cost €8. The online form sends a request, not a confirmed booking.

Driving up has a catch. A night at the hut means more than 12 hours in the car park, which needs two 12-hour toll slots: €80 for a car at 2026 prices. We found no discount for hut guests. In summer the shuttle bus from Misurina avoids the problem. Our Rifugio Auronzo guide covers the toll booking rules.

Auronzo di Cadore

Hotel Auronzo Dolomites, Affiliated by Meliá

Auronzo is the town Misurina belongs to, 24 km down the Ansiei valley, 25 to 35 minutes by car. The historic Hotel Auronzo there reopened in 2026 under Meliá’s “Affiliated by Meliá” label, with 53 rooms, run by Gruppo Stay. Winter dates and parking were not confirmed when we checked, so ask when you book. Restaurants are in the town centre.

In summer, line 50 runs from Auronzo up to Misurina and on to the Tre Cime, and the official tourism site advises boarding in Auronzo in July and August rather than queueing at Misurina. Our Auronzo di Cadore guide covers the town and another hotel on the bus route. Hotel Auronzo Dolomites on Booking.com

Cortina d’Ampezzo

Hotel Montana

Cortina is the bigger resort, with the town centre and the 1956 and 2026 Olympic venues. Hotel Montana is a two-star hotel at Corso Italia 94 in the centre, with bus and ski-bus stops a short walk away. Regione Veneto lists a private car park, and notes that parking in the historic centre is free but limited. It publishes no season dates. It suits a budget stay and a trip without a car, as long as you accept there is no bus to the lake outside summer. Hotel Montana on Booking.com. For the town itself, see things to do in Cortina d’Ampezzo.

Parking, buses and winter

Hotel car parks are for guests. Public parking along the lake is pay-and-display from 08:00 to 20:00 between 15 May and 31 October under the published municipal tariff, which had no 2026 update. Our Lake Misurina parking guide lists every car park and fee.

Buses reach the lake only in summer, plus a possible Christmas service from Auronzo with no timetable yet. Our guide on how to get to Lake Misurina has the routes.

In winter the Tre Cime toll road is closed and the ski area at the lake is small. The Grand Hotel Misurina reopens on 4 December 2026, and the Antorno chalet lists prices from 24 December.

Which Lake Misurina hotel to book

• Families: Hotel Dolomiti des Alpes. Family rooms with a Tre Cime view, free parking, the lake 3 minutes away and the only published room rates on the lake. If you need two rooms, take an apartment at Hotel Sorapiss.
• Hikers chasing an early Tre Cime start: Rifugio Auronzo, so you wake up at the trailhead. If you have a car and do not want to pay for two toll slots, stay at Albergo Chalet Lago Antorno, 500 m below the barrier.
• Couples: Hotel Lavaredo, for the spa and the lake across the road. Antorno is the alternative if you would rather be away from the main road.
• Budget: a dorm bed at Rifugio Auronzo, €90 to €100 a night with half board. With a car, Dolomiti des Alpes from about €140. In Cortina, the two-star Hotel Montana.
• No car: in summer, any lake hotel works with the line 50 bus from Auronzo and the Tre Cime shuttle. Outside summer, stay in Cortina at Hotel Montana, which buses and coaches reach all year, and accept that the lake itself then needs a car.
• Winter: the Grand Hotel Misurina, open from 4 December 2026 to 14 March 2027. For more to do in the evening, stay in Cortina instead.
