Booked this trip back at the start of 2023 after looking at a number of hotels in and around the Courmayeur area and knowing the area pretty well from a few trips there before, I wanted something that covered a fair few boxes. We booked a Bed, Breakfast and Dinner offering for 5 nights. First thing I will say from other reviews I saw is that this is not technically Courmayeur (and I do agree with that) but this is offset but the fact it is 300m from the Val Veny lift to the ski area and they do now have a free shuttle that runs in the day between the two locations so if you are not up for walking, its there for you. Its a 3 minute drive into town where all the other restaurants, bars and shops are, so unless all you want to do is go out and drink then consider this. If you are wanting late entertainment , its 400m from Shatush which is one of the better late spots anyway so to be fair it was convenient for this. Our room was a double with a large bed, newly decorated and a view of Mont Blanc from the balcony. The room temp took a bit of getting used to but wasn't a massive issue as it was -10/14 whilst we were there. The bathroom and shower area were clean, well presented and modern and the shower was great. The only thing I would say is a negative on the bedroom is that there wasn't an Iron or Ironing board and I would expect this. With both breakfast and dinner included, it helped keep our spend down and to add dinner wasn't majorly expensive so I would say it was worth it. It was a different menu every evening and you received a choice of buffet starters and one choice from the first and then second courses, and a desert menu also. The food was a real mix and showed a number of speciality dishes from the region. For included food on a B.B,D menu, the dinner was good and we were happy with it. The breakfast is a standard hotel buffet so whilst I wasn't blown away, it was good enough. It doesnt start until 0730 though so for some , this might be a little late. The wait staff in the restaurant spoke great English to offset my lack of Italian and were friendly. A good point from the experience was the Spa Area. A really nice outdoor pool and second indoor pool alongside a great spa with large sauna and 2 different style steam rooms, with a number of relaxation areas, were great after a day on the piste. All booked via the hotels app made it easier also. One slight negative is that the ski boot room didn't open until 0830 each day so if you wanted to get on the first lifts etc, you were a bit tight for time. But you got a fully locked storage area for each room, rather than a communal space for equipment. If you are going for skiing, download the Courmayeur app as its great for checking the piste status, has some good challenges on there and you can use it for GPS to track your ski/board session if you don't have strava etc. Other things like Wifi were good, and parking if you use the underground parking, is 16 euros per day, but when
