2 reviews of Hotel Orchidea in Passo Tonale, Italy.
Reviewed 27 Mar 2015
The hotel was extremely clean, to the point that it was a little OCD (they kept moving our personal items and mixing up our jewellery etc.). Staff were very friendly and accommodating.
The location was fine. My husband used a locker room near the shop that we got our skis from (it worked out at about 20€ for the week) because it was easier than walking with children in ski boots. It probably took about 10 minutes to walk each way.
The food was ok and the children were happy with it, though the vegetarian meals were slightly bland, not quite what you’d class as Italian vegetarian food.
They had a sauna and solarium but we didn’t end up using them.

They have a nice downstairs spa, sauna, jacuzzi and so forth and the food was usually a typical Italian 3 course meal including something like soup or antipasti for a starter (you chose your main meal the morning/day before so you didn’t have to wait for food in the evenings).
I shared a twin room with my daughter and we met another family out there (a couple with a daughter who was a similar age to mine) and they had a twin with another bed in the room.
Depending on which slopes you want, it’s a 10 minute walk to the nearest lift which took you on a nice long run or a 15-20 minute walk to the nursery slopes.
It’s a fairly small hotel – there’s no big hotel nightlife but if you want a quiet hotel to come back to, it’s perfect.
