The hotel was fine. The food was excellent – we were waited on in the evenings and there was also a packed lunch to take with us. It was only a little walk to the lift (you could actually see the lifts from the hotel). It’s a nice place for families, although for families with young children I would really recommend the Club Med in Cervinia (which we’ve also been to and we love it!), there’s more for young children to do there. There were activities at this hotel too though, like quiz nights and such like. The only thing we didn’t like at the hotel was that the staff were really just young kids and they weren’t very knowledgeable about what was on offer in resort and where things were. I wasn’t skiing so it would have been really helpful to know about extra activities and events. We went over New Years and there was a night ski procession in the village with fireworks, we actually missed this because we didn’t know it was on!

We liked that the hotel was all inclusive (breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks included) and our holiday work out a lot better value than our friends who were staying in Cervinia at the same time but on half board. The quality of everything was a lot higher than I thought it would be, considering the holiday wasn’t that expensive – we had a cooked breakfast every morning, you picked a sandwich that they made freshly for you to take out for lunch and for the evening meal you had a choice of 3 options. They also did an afternoon tea when you got in.
We didn’t really use the facilities other than the room which was quite big (considering there were only 2 of us) as well as very warm and clean.
I thought the location was perfect as you’re right opposite the lift and probably about a 5 minute walk from the town.
