This was my second time here, the first being in 2016 and it was just as fantastic as the first time. The rooms are spacious, exceptionally clean and best of all, warm all day! Located right next to the slopes, all you have to do is go out, put on your ski equipment and take either the chair lift or car lift which connects you to all the slopes around Roccaraso. You also get discounts on renting gear and a courtesy coupon to the spa for you and your partner, for an hour.
The entertainment in the evenings were fun (if you understand some Italian) and the staff are always on hand to tend to your requests with a warm smile on their faces.
Best of all is the food and the service of the Maite’d and his team. Absolutely divine, delicious and plentiful original Italian cuisine. The waiter assigned to our table, Alessandro, was really attentive to our preferences and so also were the others.
A truly awesome experience. Highly recommended!

We loved the warm welcome from reception. The rooms are very clean and tidy and comfortable. Food is plentiful and amazing quality. It is like staying with your Italian family! Particular call out for a very attentive waiter Giovanni who took very good care of us all week. We will definitely return!

We stayed for 5 days in February. The hotel is perfectly situated right on the slopes, with super easy access to all amenities inc ski hire & passes. ski schools & most importantly to the ski lifts which take you up to the slopes. The hotel itself is warm and inviting if a little dated. The staff were all extremely welcoming, friendly & helpful throughout our stay. We were half board and the food was for the most part good with lots of variation to the menu. The 'Abruzzo' night (typical dishes from region) was excellent. The staff in the restaurant were also great, no request was too much. We had wine (extra) that they kept for us over a few evenings rather than having to drink all in one sitting. Bacon & eggs freshly cooked for us each morning. The 'cons' to the hotel & area were that drinks in the bar were so expensive @10€ a pint!! There were 4 of us & a few pints after the slopes are always a must for us, but just too expensive on this trip! We would have frequented the bar more often if the prices were more reasonable. We ended up driving down to Roccaraso and buying beers, soft drinks & snacks there, but this also meant we spent a lot more time in our room than we would have liked. There are activities daily run by the hotel but there aren't any bars, restaurants nearby in the evening. I would say that this hotel is perfect for families with young kids, people with older kids or groups looking for 'apres ski' & night life might get bored especially if here without a car.
