Luxury dog-friendly hotels in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy

A popular Dolomite playground for Milanese millionaires, Cortina d’Ampezzo is a snow-capped comune in the Veneto, near the Austrian border, for skiing, strolling (technically scaling) and, er, shopping. It may be a small town, but it has big brands, second homes and several celebrated restaurants, from farmhouses in larch forests to family-run trattorias and fine-dining with altitude. Along with the Ladin culture, visitors can enjoy the majestic Alpine backdrop, with turquoise lakes, waterfalls and canyons worth trekking for.
