average hotel, long queue at check-in, good italian food, need to paid 100 euro deposit and remember to get this back, you need to clean your room and kitchen before check-out.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THAT YOU NEED TO WALK 20 MINUTES TO SKI SCHOOL MEETING POINT UP THE HILL - VERY DIFFICULT AND DISAPPOINTED. (specially with kids)
If you want to leave equipment where ski meeting point then it cost you extra 5 Euro per ski with boots per day.
Agent Thomson never said anything

Basic and a bit institutional, but met our needs. The rooms were very large (great for keeping all your ski gear in) and had been renovated to remove the kitchens that were there during the Olympics. As mentioned in other reviews, the space between the toilet and shower is small but was fine for us. The rooms can be difficult to find though because the numbering system is not how we expected. ie. room 299 is on the third floor and 337 is on the fifth floor. The wine bar in the basement was excellent value and a nice place to spend a few hours. The food in the canteen-style restaurant was sufficient, but not fancy. The Bellagio it is not.. but it is clean, modern and practical. We got it cheaply on a last minute deal and weren't expecting much.

The most important thing for us was that it is right next to the slopes. The bubble to Sauze D'Oulx and the chair up to Sestriere slopes are literally right in front of the hotel.

A wonderful hotel right next the pistes. I went with my family and we all ha d a blast. We would leave the kids at the kids club and we were free to ski all day. The staff is amazing!
The structure is huge and the rooms are more like mini apartments rather than the usual hotel rooms. I have already booked for the Easter break and I got a great advanced discount. I would advise it to everyone…you won’t be disappointed.

We stayed in this hotel in June and had fantastic weather which made our stay excellent.

The hotel is a big concrete block, the room/apartment was not bad but somehow without atmosphere. Absolutely not problem for us as it was summer and we spent most of the time outside but it wouldn't be my choice for a winter stay. It was clean, big balcony, beautiful view. The bathroom a bit small, when you sit on the toilet you touch the shower with your knees. can't imagine "big boys".
The hotel was almost empty but I'm afraid that it's noisy when there are many people as there is echo in the halls and you can hear everything.
tha staff was very friendly and helpful.
there is an awesome public swimming pool in Sestriere and many walking tracks, don't mention nature.
The disadvantage of the summer stay is that you can hardly find any restaurant open and it's quiet a long way from other big city/town.
I would recommend if for its location and as a base for tracking. but only in summer
