Hotel Grand Paradiso, Passo Tonale, Italy

· ski-in, ski-out via a flight of stairs · 1 minute's walk to the chairlift · 2 minutes' walk to the gondola · 10 minutes' walk to the resort centre · 1 minute's walk to the free shuttle bus stop · 10 minutes' walk to the ski school meeting point

This family-friendly pick pairs fab facilities with a prime piste-side spot. Each morning, simply climb the steps behind the hotel, click in and set off. Still learning? You’re just 10 minutes’ walk from the ski school meeting point.

Nothing says ski-holiday bliss like soaking in a sauna or hot tub, so pay a little extra to enjoy some after-ski R&R in the spa. There’s also padel ball (think tennis meets squash) and a games room chock-full of arcade-style machines, so active types are covered too. And if you're holidaying with kids, make the most of our Childcare clubs to keep the holiday feels flowing for your little ones.

There's a mix of rooms at the Paradiso, some with a modern look, decked out in creams and whites, and others that have a more traditional feel. And you can take your pick from loads of different types too – from simple singles and twins all the way up to suites with multiple bedrooms and balconies.

As for meals, there are big buffets served up every morning and evening, and as an extra perk, you’ll get free drinks included with dinner as well. Or you can shake things up by eating à la carte in the Pasta & Pizza restaurant if you fancy.
