Where to Stay at Brixen-Plose Ski Resort
Brixen-Plose is blessed with more high-quality accommodation options than such a small ski resort has any right too! For those that simply must stay on the ski hill, a number of rifugi (alpine huts) provide comfortable lodging above 2,000m. Otherwise, two separate locations with a number of classy hotels & apartments near Plancios are served by ski lifts (including the Pfannspitze gondola) with direct access to the ski slopes. Alternatively, the village of San Andrea has some outstanding hotel options.
See the Plose Ski Resort Map for an indication as to where the various localities are in relation to the ski lifts.
If the snow is good, for a great Plose experience stay in one of the alpine huts at the top of the ski resort or at the Pfannspitze gondola base, otherwise, our pick is to stay in lovely Bressanone - Brixen. The city has all services, some great bars and entertainment plus a delightful historic centre to explore.

Plancios (Palmschoss) Accommodations
At a height of 1,700m, the small Plose resort base area at Plancios is located at the bottom of the old Palmschoss double chair lift. Accessible by car or via the public bus (number 321) from Bressanone, it is a convenient and quiet place to stay. All accommodation has ski-in convenience. For ultimate luxury at the ski resort, try the newly renovated, exceptional 5-star Hotel Forestis Dolomites or the more affordable Vista Hotel.
Pfannspitze Gondola Base Lodgings
Better than Plancios (but still referred to as Plancios!), 3 km up the road is the base of Brixen-Plose's new(ish) Pfannspitze gondola. The best lift access in the ski resort, several hotels and apartments are available right near the lift base. Try the expensive, but magnificent, Berghotel Schlemmer which is perfectly located in a ski-in position next to the gondola. otherwise try the reliable Plose Parkhotel Residence apartments.
San Andrea Accommodation
The village of St Andrea is the closest 'major' centre to the Brixen-Plose ski resort. A short distance below the base of the Plose gondola, San Andrea has several hotels plus a range of shops and services. Access to the resort is via ski bus. The best hotel is the exceptional (and quite new) Santre Dolomythic Home. Stunning views, hospitality and spa facilities set this apart from all the others. A close second is the beautiful Hotel Gasserhof. A more affordable option is the family-friendly Hotel Tyrol.
In a ski-in ski-out position along the Trametsch piste, the farm stay apartments at the Trametschhütte are wonderful but difficult to find a vacancy.
Plose Mountain Huts & Rifugi
At least 4 mountain huts are located on Plose. The highest is the Plosehutte (2447m), a rifugio with 60 beds and guaranteed first tracks! Another more refined option is the Rossalm (2200m) set in the middle of the resort. A seriously interesting option is the Schatzerhutte (2004m), a walk, snowshoe or skin up a path from the base of the Pfannspitze gondola. The Geisler Inn (2050m) near the top of the Plose gondola is another 'softer' option.
Bressanone (Brixen) Accommodation
The beautiful city of Bressanone is in the valley below Plose ski resort. A few excellent hotels near the historic city centre are delightful places to stay, all convenient to the local ski bus that goes to the ski resort. Amongst several great hotels, the Hotel Golden Krone is ever reliable.

Other Plose Accommodation Options
