Hotel St. Veit in Sexten in the Dolomites

Our 4-⁠star wellness hotel lies on the quiet edge of Sexten, in the heart of the Dolomites of the Upper Puster Valley. Opposite stand the five peaks of the Sexten Sundial. In winter the slope begins just beyond the garden.

We are the Karadar family and run the hotel in the third generation. Over the welcome cocktail we raise a glass to your holiday together and get to know each other in person. From then on, we and our whole team are there for you, from the first coffee in the morning to the last glass in the evening.

The Sexten Sundial

Neuner, Zehner, Elfer, Zwölfer and Einser are the names of the five Dolomite peaks opposite our hotel. Together they form the Sexten Sundial, because between nine and one o’clock the sun moves from one peak to the next. From the south-facing balconies of the St. Veit, you can watch it on its way.

Alpine-Mediterranean cuisine with regional produce

Our kitchen combines hearty Alpine recipes with Mediterranean lightness. What comes to the table is fresh and seasonal, and most of it comes from the surrounding area. Gourmets eat just as well with us as guests who prefer something lighter. Anyone who cannot tolerate gluten or lactose is served dishes prepared especially for them.

With dessert, we recommend a glass of our own Passito. Its grapes ripen at over 1,300 metres.

Wellness hotel in Sexten, right on the slopes

Sexten lies in the heart of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, among mountain lakes, forests and meadows. In summer, hikers, mountaineers, mountain bikers and families set off on their tours right from our front door. In winter you stay with us right on the slope, and the valley station of the Mount Helm cable car is only a few metres away.

In spring 2025, we carried out a major renovation. Since then, the garden has had an outdoor pool and a whirlpool with a view of the Dolomites, and the indoor pool has been freshly renovated. Also new are a wine cellar and a large seminar room. The rustic mountain village sauna and our gourmet cuisine have remained.
