- The main issue with this hotel is the location from the Sestriere ski slopes. We had to walk for about 15mins to get to our ski hire place but this wasn't really a problem for us as everyone is healthy and those that struggled a bit with it (were lazy!!) got the bus that picked up from outside.
The staff in the hotel were very friendly, the reception staff were good speakers of English but appreciated us giving the Italian a go!! The bar staff (one in particular) were incredibly funny and quite entertaining.
They could do with some different types of nightlife entertainment. The resort as a whole lacked in that respect. The part of our party who were in our 20s could have done with something to do in the evenings other than sit in the hotel bar. « less

- Having read trip advisor we feared the worst. However, a pleasant surprise awaited.
having arrived at 1 am we were pleased to find that the hotel had laid on a large plate of antipasta for each of us.
The check in was fast, rooms very spacious and staff very helpful.
There was plenty of food with large antipasta starter followed by several course main meal in the evening and a good buffet breakfast in the morning. The standard was good and the fare filling.
Some great characters in the staff all of whom were exteremely friendly and helpful. Most of the other guests were Italian and there was a pretty good atmosphere especially during the football and olympics when on TV in the bar area. Rooms were very large with plenty of storage and beds nice and firm. Rooms were well cleaned daily.
The location isn't perfect as its a short 10 minute walk up hill to the center of town, but if you leave your skis up there its not a problem. The ski bus isn't worth bothering with.
Overall a good budget hotel. « less

- We ( my spouse and I ) stayed in this hotel for a week in half board paying a small price thanks to a cinema promotion. The people working in the hotel were eager to help in any occasion all the guest, trying to fix all of hotel trouble, as the food.
The food was not very satisfying, because quality was really poor, and waiter suggested every evening what to avoid not to be disgusted.
Apart from food the hotel is in Sestriere outskirt, so it will take 10 minutes to reach city center, but it is very confortable for skiers, because ski-lift are just 5 minutes to walk.
Rooms are very spacious, because it usually works as a residence, and we were given a quad room for two, with a small living room, a kitchen, a baby room, and a quite large bathroom. The only trouble was the light which was not shaded, and all the rooms - which has a splendid mountan view - have east exposition, so when sun comes up we were fully woken. « less

Cant really fault the hotel staff, they did their best with raw chicken. If its a cheap lads ski holday to sestriere youre after and you dont mind a walk into town then this place is fine; basic, not the cleanest but otherwise tolerable and somewhere to sleep. Bit of a stroll to the lift though.
Top tip - fill up on the buffet starter, the main course aint worth looking at!
For those with families, look elsewhere for your own sake please « less

- We have just returned from our stay here and I personally wouldn't stay here again or recommend it to anyone I know.
We booked through Crystal, and it was advertised as being family friendly, which is was most certainly not. Though some of the problems could have been aleviated if we ever saw a rep. Therefore we would also recommend that people do not book through Crystal as the rep didn't show, we only saw he on the airport pickups and dropoffs and then they were different people!
The rooms were spacious but basic in need so some modernisation. The travel cot we were provided was filthy and upon complaint they brought us another, which was just as bad saying thats all we have.
The hotels food was ok, but they would not provide me with a small childs meal, and not anything before 7.30pm in the evening which is too late for a baby under 12 months. Therefore my child hardly ate all week, as she was unable/refused to eat the food that I could offer her.
There was also an incident mid week where some people in our party were presented with chicken which was still raw.
The hotels's situation is not ideal as it is a 10 minute walk at least to the lifts, and the bus service is a little unpredictable.
If booking to go to sestriere I would advise travellers to look for a hotel up the hill into the resort nearer to all the main amenities. « less
