  1. Grual

    Contemporary Alpine

    Save to a list Write a review On the Way Around

    The Grual mountain that rises behind the hotel gives this Michelin-starred fine dining room its name and its organizing logic. Chef Matteo Maezza structures his tasting menus around the altitude where each ingredient was sourced, valley floor to high peak, so the meal traces a kind of vertical map of the surrounding Dolomites. Candlelight, a serious wine list, and guests in their resort best complete the picture.

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
