Hotel la Perla: the Leading Hotels of the World

This property may carry the Leading Hotels of the World label, but unfortunately, the experience fell far short of that standard. Setting and decor is old and rundown , the service philosophy seems to revolve around charging extra for absolutely everything — often without warning. From basic amenities to services you’d reasonably expect to be included in a hotel of this caliber, nearly everything comes with an unexpected fee. Instead of feeling pampered, you feel like you're being upsold at every turn. It’s disappointing and leaves a sour taste. Luxury isn’t just about the look — it’s about the guest experience. And here, that experience feels transactional, not hospitable. Definitely not the seamless, elevated stay one would expect from a member of LHW. Extremely underwhelming spa and massage experience. The massage was poorly executed, felt rushed, and completely lacked any professionalism or technique. The spa area itself is tiny and cramped, offering none of the comfort or luxury you would expect. The pool is small and uninviting, the showers are bare — no shampoo, conditioner, or body products provided. No brushes, no hair products, no amenities at all. Everything felt like an afterthought. This is not a relaxing or rejuvenating environment by any standard. Definitely not worth the cost or the time. Would not return or recommend. But the worse was interaction with few members of the staff that insisted on changing us the fee for spa entrance after we paid 150 euro for our poor massages for each and were planning to have dinner for 4 right after. When we called 4 to 5 days in advance, we were told by two staff members that there was no separate entrance fee if you’re having a spa treatment or dinner. We were planning to have both. On the way out of the spa we were asked to pay another 300 for entrance to the “ magnificent “ spa. They could not produce any email confirmation re those charges. We left the hotel very disappointed.

I describe this as an alpine retreat. The style is a little more German than Italian. Excellent service, fabulous spa, cool piano bar and the bartenders are very experienced. Breakfast is excellent and the resturant has a good variety of items on the menu. The pool is like a grotto and very fun to swim in. The spa has the usual services. The rooms are all wooden walls and ceilings so they have a log cabin feel. The rooms are large and the bed is super comfortable. You can walk a short distance to shops in the area.

What a lovely spot filled with charm. Our hosts were gracious and helpful when planning our daily hikes. There are so many options leaving straight from the hotel. No car required. Bikers seemed to be in heaven, too. Very nice spa with sauna, steam, pool, and treatments

Our 8 night stay at Hotel La Perla was a 60th birthday gift for my wife. Having stayed in a number of Hotels that put themselves up there as among the best in the world, we now know that La Perla is, indeed, one of the very best hotels in the world. It is simply 'understated magnificence'. We cannot single out any part of the experience because ALL elements of our stay were perfect! When was the last time you stayed in a hotel for over a week and NOTHING went wrong or needed attention? Thank-you to all the staff who looked after our every need and more. Do yourself a favor and experience La Perla at least once in your life!

We have visited La Perla twice now, and each time, it has exceeded our expectations! With its recent renovation, the spa features expanded facilities and relaxing areas after a full day of skiing. Additionally, the massage was incredible!! We stayed in a Romantica room, which offered gorgeous views of the slopes and the nearby church. Everything about this hotel feels magical. The La Perla team is gracious and welcoming; dining at the hotel is truly a culinary odyssey. Fabio’s cooking is award-winning.

I stayed in the hotel with my son for 3 nights and it was a great pleasure. Excelent breakfast and dinner, very friendly personal always glad to help, very clean rooms. The hotel is located in the village and on the slope and it's really ski in ski out. Each day there was live music in the bar. I would recommend this hotel without any doubt.
