Hotel was high quality staff were friendly. Best food I’ve had at a ski resort. Wine on table, quality of service was brilliant. But there was an outbreak of norovirus and 1 adult, 1 child got sick. Ruined 1 day. Walk up a steep hill to access slopes, 30m from ski lift. Crystal reps were not helpful though. Snow was great! Would suggest going in high season for best snow conditions. Short ski runs, but good for beginners. 3.5/5

We had a really nice week and the hotel was good. They sort of upgraded us to a private dining area which was nice but a bit weird in that it was very quiet! The whole hotel was pretty quiet – there are a couple of nice bars there but one night we were the only 2 people in the whole bar! The staff were very nice and we’re going to keep in touch with the waitress as we got on so well with her. The food was great, it wasn’t overly Italian but more of an Italian take on different dishes. We especially enjoyed the wines. Our bedroom was ok, quite small but on a ski holiday you don’t need much. I think all the rooms have nice views, ours was looking out towards the glacier. The spa and pool facilities were really good!
We could get to the slopes really quickly (we just had to go up some stairs and out) and at different times of year you would have been able to literally ski all the way back. It seemed like a really good hotel for families overall but the closeness to the slopes would be another reason I’d recommend it if you have children - it would make everything much easier. If you were more interested in the nightlife you would probably want to stay somewhere more in the centre of Tonale (although it was only a short walk anyway).
