Set to debut in late 2026 as part of Accor’s Emblems Collection, Hotel Bellevue Cortina d’Ampezzo will offer a refined take on luxury in the Italian Dolomites.
Alpine-inspired design at Hotel Bellevue Cortina d’Ampezzo
Envisioned by Tihany Design, the hotel’s interiors draw from the drama of Cortina’s mountain landscape and the convivial spirit of après-ski culture.
Nods to the town’s time as host of the 1956 Winter Olympics are woven throughout, with sculptural lighting, tailored upholstery, and elegant materials referencing the sophistication of midcentury Italian design.
A palette of earthy neutrals, mineral tones, and rich woods reflects the ever-changing hues of the surrounding peaks, while locally sourced Bianco Antico stone, warm oak, and handcrafted textiles add tactile richness. Custom furnishings echo the contours of the Dolomites to reinforce the property’s sense of place.
“We wanted to create an interior that feels both deeply rooted in place and elevated in experience—a design that evokes nostalgia for Cortina’s golden age while embracing modern luxury,” says Alessia Genova, principal at Tihany Design, who is originally from Italy. “By working with local artisans and materials native to the region, we sought to craft a space that reflects the textures, warmth, and spirit of the Dolomites.”
