Where to Stay
The 3* Tschurtschenthaler Hotel in the middle of Dobbiaco provides a perfect location. It is a short walk to the bus station and has a supermarket nearby. There are many other options in that area including self catering, and a youth hostel. A couple of others worth mentioning are - Hotel Laurin, close to the ski stadium. It is a bit pricey but well worth it. Hotel Nocker, Dolomitenstrasse 21 is virtually. next to the station and very near the level crossing so quite convenient if travelling by trail. It is more economical than the Laurin. And there is also a very good youth hostel with good facilities at a reasonable price.
