Rifugio Cornisello In Pinzolo

04/03/2025: Hotel with typical skiing standards without fireworks but also without major reservations, completely sufficient for a ski trip. Pros: Clean rooms and cleaned daily. Buffet breakfasts. Three-course dinner menu, with three options to choose from in advance, additionally a buffet with salads, cakes, pizza. There is enough food and everyone will find something for themselves. The hotel has a small outdoor pool with a jacuzzi, a spa center in the hotel, access to the pool and sauna included in the price of the stay. The hotel is located close to the slope to the Costa lift, opposite the ski bus stop. Large parking lot. Ski room. Very friendly reception and hotel staff. Cons: The biggest problem is the ski bus, it is in the form of a train that pulls two carriages. The hotel is the third stop and this stop is often skipped because there is no more space. Sometimes, a more thoughtful Italian train operator drops people off at the lift and you return to the hotel, but there are few such operators and you have to wait another "x" amount of time. Italians are a lazy nation! Saunas are open until 19:30, but often at 17:00 there is a power cut. If you can come to the hotel with a dog, then allocate rooms in a separate part so as not to disturb the lives of others. The hotel itself is definitely too hot and the smog often does not allow you to open the window. There is no kettle or glasses in the rooms, and often after skiing, Polish tourists, of whom there are 90% there, love tea. Despite the minuses, I recommend this hotel for a family ski vacation.
