Club Hotel Alpino, Folgaria, Italy

· in Folgaria village, 5-6 minutes’ walk to the centre · 10-minute bus to the Costa chairlift, ski school meeting point and nursery slopes (buses run every hour) · 1 minutes’ walk to the ski bus stop

Set in the heart of Folgaria, the family-run Club Hotel Alpino makes a brilliant base for exploring both the ski area and the town. You’re in a historic, pedestrianised area here, with bars, shops and restaurants all right on your doorstep. And while the slopes are around 1.5km away, the ski bus stops just 50m from the hotel every hour – making it a doddle to reach the lifts each day.

Inside, the hotel has a warm, lived-in feel that reflects its long history, with traditional alpine touches throughout. After a day on the slopes, the wellness area is the star of the show – unwind in the saunas and steam rooms, stretch out in the relaxation area or enjoy a swim before heading out for the evening. And don't miss a soak in the outdoor hot tub, where you can relax in the crisp mountain air.

Food is generous and comforting, with a focus on classic Trentino flavours – think hearty buffet dinners that hit the spot after a day’s skiing. There’s also a well-curated wine selection, and if you’re looking to make an evening of it, the hotel’s historic cellar offers a more special experience with fine wines and local charcuterie (available at an extra cost).
