Hotel Dama Bianca

Colazione non inclusa (8 euro a testa al giorno). L’Hotel è molto carino però purtroppo eravamo soli perché essendo un periodo di bassa stagione il paese era deserto.

Il personale gentilissimo e la struttura in generale fatta eccezione per il ristorante.

In relazione al prezzo pagato mi sarei aspettato un menu più ricco, sia al mattino che alla sera.

It's clean, and comfortable. The staff is very nice,

It's at the edge of the ski resort, so you need a car.

- free ski bus from/to the hotel with a great (and very helpful) driver - food was excellent (simple, but tasty) - clean rooms - cosy, family own hotel - good location for ski, especially coupled with the ski bus

Did not like: - the room was cold when we arrived (the heaters were turned off and remained chilly for the entire stay (even with the heater on, we still had to use 2 blankets) – maybe other rooms did not have this problem but ours did Neuter: - although we had half-board, we had to pay extra for the water at dinner - due to a strike in Italy, we we were forced to arrive one day later (but paid for the entire stay); when we arrived (at around noon, next day), I asked the lady from the reception if it is possible they prepare us some sandwiches, since we missed the first dinner and breakfast (which we still paid), but she said no. I know that it wasn’t their fault for the strike in Italy (as it wasn’t ours ), and they were not obliged to, but it would have been a nice gesture, which would have softened a little bit the situation;

Breakfast was pretty boring with the same items every morning. Also, some items will run out of stock if you weren't there when it open. Dinner was hit or miss. We didn't like the food 3 nights out of 6, and the other 3 it was just OK. They don't have a ski boots dryer room. Beds were supper uncomfortable. They overcharged out bill claiming confusion between what we order at the restaurant and at the bar, but they weren't able to provide an itemized receipt. So, if you order anything from the bar or in the restaurant and you don't pay immediately you should track your consummation because they will mess it up.

Some of the staff was super friendly and helpful.

Hotel Dama Bianca was for us a jewel of a find. Far enough to escape the half-term chaos of the slopes, but close enough to Cervinia to enjoy the mountain drive there and back every day. The view from the hotel rooms were stunning and the general attention to detail outstanding. Every little thing has been thought about, the hotel is spotlessly clean, and the family's hospitality will forever warm our hearts . The breakfast was perfect, dinner an institution!; an authentic Italian 4 course meal every night.... that we started talking about at breakfast! What a week. We felt blessed to have found this unique, family-run Italian hotel. It just has that special something that is rare to find and made our holiday. Do not get us started on the Torta Della Nonna !!!...

Nothing. Everything was perfect. We will be back!
