First week of march 2011 we did spend a fantastic week in Hotel Lac Salin, we had a reservation in the also very nice Hotel Concordia but something went wrong with reservation/e-mail, small misunderstanding and so we got a room in Hotel Lac Salin.
The chakra suite,, heaven" that we had for this week was very nice, large room with nice sunny balcony that looks over the skipiste. The room is something you see in a magazine : Italian Design in optima forma; there is a modern bathtub in the middle of the room with a window above it that opens with a remote control. A big golden leather chair on a white fur carpet. The bed is made of white leather with crocoprint, realy very nice and different. The large bathroom has everything you need, even mouthwash and shaving cream, and the largesize shower has also a wooden floor, we travel a lot but this we had never seen before. The towels are changed several times a day, by the way those towels smell so nice and fresh, also heavenly.
There are fluffy nice bathrobes and slippers to go to the spa.The spa is spacious, with sauna, herbalbath, turkish bath, relaxing beds, very nice showers, large pool, whirlpool, training room, sunbanks, etc. etc. and you can have a lot of treatments in the spa, like massages and various treatments for heath and skin. There is a little ,,bar" for free softdrinks and warming tea's.
The meals are what you expect from a 4 1/2 star hotel, good quality Italian cuisine, specialy the antipasto buffet is everyday a suprise, it was difficult not to eat to much of it, because there is pasta ( choise of 4) and a maincourse ( also choise of 4) coming . The dessert buffet is also fantastic with a large variety of Italian dessert and pies. The winelist has a lot of choise of very good wines. Breakfast 5 stars, with fresh carrotjuice, eggs made at your choise and a lot of cheese and ham etc. The hotel was fully booked but all the items at the buffets at breakfast or diner were never empty and refilled constantly - perfection, the people that work in the restaurant are very professionel, nice and friendly, they see everything, so there is never an empty plate in the buffet.
For skiing the hotel has maybe the best position in Livigno, you step down from the terras and you walk 30 seconds to the first skilift that will take you to the best skiarea ever, wide pistes that are so huge that you are almost alone on the mountain, we never waited longer than a few minutes for any lift. On the mountain you can eat for a few euro's nice Italian dishes (not too much think of the buffet tonight!!!) After a superday you can ski all the way back to the hotel, step up the terras for a warm bombardillo.
Your car is in the garage that has a carwash and air for your tyres, how nice.
Is there nothing negative about this place? yes : AFTER YOUR HOLLIDAY YOU HAVE TO LEAVE .

A lovely modern hotel with fantastic features and facilities, right on the foot of one of the many slopes in Livignp and beginner runs. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. The hotel also has in-house ski-hire facilities which make renting equipment easy. The restaurant has a great selection in their breakfast buffet and a delicious 4 course dinner menu. Their indoor pool, herbal bath, sauna & steam room create a great relaxing facility after an active day on the slopes. Definately a hotel to enjoy your holiday at!

We spent eight glorious nights as a family in this beautifully located hotel.The rooms are exceptionally well appointed and comfortable, all with unbeleivable views of the area. Its proximity to the ski slopes is excellent, particularly for beginners, with the added advantage of its own ski rental facility.The staff are very efficient, cordial and go out of their way to make your stay memorable.An added delight was the very good and varied cuisine.

Prime location on the slopes, great facilities and great views. Stayed on a HB basis, well worth it as the food is excellent. Staff all very friendly. The spa was an added bonus after a day on the slopes. Would definately recommend this to anyone visiting Livigno.
