Hotel Lysjoch

Went here for a long weekend skiing. We had notified in advance we would be late arriving as we were flying to Milan after work from the uk. We turned out to be even later than anticipated due to our flight being delayed. We told the owner Gigi when we landed and he was up to let us in at nearly 2 in the morning, no issues, showed us our room, sort the details in the morning. Really good of him. The breakfast was a very good selection of cheese, hams, a good croissant, nice cake. Really enjoyable. They also had no issues providing Gluten free for the friend I was with. We ate there one night, and the food was really decent, small menu, but enough choice, I had a lovely stew, prices seemed reasonable to me. Good wine selections. The hotel has a small bar, really useful once I realised that ringing the bell for service was not a problem and I shouldn't feel bad about using the bell. The restaurant and bar are useful because it is a bit out on a limb, inbetween Gressoney and Staffal. However, there is an off road nice path along the river into Gressoney that only actually takes about 20 minutes, so we did that one night. Gressoney is not exactly buzzing, but it's very attractive town with a copuple of decent restaurants and wine bars, so quiet but good rather than raucous. There is a restaurant on the slopes above the hotel called Morgenrot which was excellent, and you can walk up to it |(we did, short but sharp) or they pick you up in a little ski cat (we got dropped down in this), so the location was fine for us, just to be aware that it is in a very quiet little hamlet. The location was great for skiing, skibus stop almost outside (googlemaps shows a lift up from next to the hotel but that no longer exists in reality, you can see where it used to be). Not an issue, because the bus to staffal with lifts in two directions takes 5 minutes. You could also walk up to the slopes, we saw some people do this, however I found it hard enough up to the restaurant in shoes, I didn't fancy it in ski boots! Coming home though you can ski to the back of the hotel almost, just a few metres walk, which is great at the end of a day. The room itself had a balcony with a nice view, was a good size with a decent table as well as the twin beds. The shower was powerful with plenty of warm water. There were a few little niggles, nothing that bothered me, one wall socket was a bit loose, ditto a wardrobe handle, and the drainage on the shower was a bit slow. I didn't mind any of this, but mention it to give a full picture. It's a great value ski-in Italian 3*, so providing your not expecting the Ritz it's great. As well as staying up for our ridiculous late arrival, Gigi and all the staff were always friendly and helpful. We were offered a late checkout so that we could have had our room all day on our last day and had a post ski shower. That didn't actually work for us as we decided to park up by the lift and our ski rental shop in Gressoney to maximise ski time,

Proprietari e personale gentilissimi, disponibili e prodighi di consigli. Posizione non eccezionale su strada trafficata, ma vicina ai vari punti di partenza per le escursioni. Spazio esterno poco godibile. Camere piccole ma dotate di tutto il necessario. Poca insonorizzazione. Colazione discreta.

Bellissima esperienza vengono personale gentilissimo e disponibile, posto bellissimo e cibo eccellente. L'hotel molto accogliente che riprende tantissimo l'idea di casa in montagna. La pulizia è il massimo . Suggerisco moltissimo questo hotel è il posto. Gigi e tutto il personale sono il 🔝 Ci rivediamo in estate!!
