Hotel Rive, Bardonecchia

The Hotel Rive is well placed in the Campo Smith Village. This puts you right near the lifts and slopes which is ideal for getting straight out onto the mountain. In fact the nearest lift is just 50 metres walk and you can ski right back to the hotel. The hotel itself is quite modern, but has features typical of the alpine style, like the wood panelling. The bedrooms are the same and if you upgrade to the Superior Room you'll also have a balcony to enjoy the views from.

They have a really great food offering here to keep you going out on the slopes. For breakfast there's a buffet with hot options. Then the restaurant serves a lovely selection of typical local and international dishes. You can try some great wines here too. We loved the local wines from the Susa Valley.

For an afternoon stroll we enjoyed the 15 minute walk into Bardonecchia town, or take the free resort bus if you prefer. The wellness area here is superb and perfect for that after ski muscle relaxation in the sauna, steam room or a swim in the indoor pool. As you're on holiday you might want to treat yourself to a beauty treatment or massage, which you can book and pay for locally.
