The fantastic Living bar below the main reception area is a great place to relax after a hard days skiing. What could be better than returning to a tasty snack at the hotel after a long day in the mountains? Every day delicacies prepared by the pastry chef, as well as hot chocolate, herbal teas and many other hot drinks. For the evening, aperitifs, with a wide selection of cocktails and tasty finger food prior to going down to dinner.




The Spa is awesome with heated indoor pool, outdoor hot tub and sauna. Fresh fruit and iced drinks are in the relaxation area, and there is a lovely play area for children.

The food is fine dining and yet substantial, as there are anti pasta, starters, main and then gorgeous desserts. All courses have choices so there will be something on the menu to please everyone. The dining room also has a self-service food area with salads, kids menu and fresh vegetables and fruit. Breakfasts are superb too, with a large buffet selection and cooked to order egg options.








I must comment on the staff who were fantastic, friendly and very professional. They looked after myself and two boys so well and became friends, greeting us by name.

We are going back next year and hopefully for many more years to come.

So I say Ciao and Graze, Guido, Danielle, Paulo, Vincenzo and all the staff
