Stay by the Faloria cable car

Faloria's valley station is the lift you can walk to from the centre. These are the beds that treat that walk as the point.

The valley station, not the summit

Staying 'at Faloria' can mean two different things. The useful one for a week in town is the valley station, on the edge of the centre. Hotel Serena's official listing puts it at Via Faloria 8, a short distance from the Faloria lifts and 500 metres from Corso Italia, with 52 rooms. Ambra is the boutique Alps by Design places a few steps from those lifts.

The other meaning is up the mountain: Rifugio Faloria, and the spa hotels at Zuel di Sopra on the south side, which look at Monte Faloria but are not the valley station. Those are on the south page.

This lift does not deliver the Tofane

Faloria and the Tofane side are joined by the ski bus, not by a piste you can ski from the bedroom. Line S34 on the tourism ski-bus sheet runs Piazza Roma, Funivia Faloria and Funivia Freccia nel Cielo every 15 minutes in the published window 08:30–17:30, for skipass holders. That sheet lives in a February 2025 path. Check dolomitibus.it for the winter you book.

For what the lifts and the ski school actually are, use Ski Cortina. This page is only about where to sleep.

Questions

Is Via Faloria in the centre?

It is the edge of it. Hotel Serena's listing says 500 metres to Corso Italia, which is a short walk, not a hamlet stay.

Can I ski to Faloria from Pocol?

Do not plan on it. Pocol is the Tofane side. The ski bus or a shuttle joins the two. Piste maps are on skicortina.org.
