Hotel Grand Paradiso, Passo Tonale, Italy

Ski-in, ski-out (access to the slope is via a flight of stairs)

1 minute's walk to the chairlift

2 minutes' walk to the gondola

12 minutes' walk to the resort centre

1 minute's walk to the free shuttle bus stop

10 minutes' walk to the ski school meeting point

This family-friendly pick pairs fab facilities with a prime piste-side spot. Each morning, simply climb the steps behind the hotel, click in and set off. Still learning? You’re just 10 minutes’ walk from the ski school meeting point.

Nothing says ski-holiday bliss like soaking in a sauna or hot tub, so pay a little extra to enjoy some after-ski R&R in the spa. There’s also padel ball for an extra charge (think tennis meets squash) and a games room chock-full of arcade-style machines, so active types are covered too. And if you're holidaying with kids, make the most of our Childcare clubs to keep the holiday feels flowing for your little ones.

There's a mix of rooms at the Paradiso, some with a modern look, decked out in creams and whites, and others that have a more traditional feel. And you can take your pick from loads of different types too – from simple singles and twins all the way up to suites with multiple bedrooms and balconies. As for the rest of the hotel, there's a simple, neutral style from top to bottom.

Food-wise, there are big buffets served up every morning and evening, and as an extra perk, you’ll get free drinks included with dinner as well. Plus, you'll have one complimentary evening meal with drinks at the Vinae Pasta & Pizza restaurant to shake things up a bit.

Childcare

From snowman building to story time, our Childcare team know how to make sure your little ones have the best ski holiday ever. Stay at the Hotel Grand Paradiso to add Pepi Penguin Nursery (6 months-4 years) and Beanie Bear Club (4-8 years) to your holiday. All childcare is an extra charge and must be pre-booked to guarantee a place. Places are subject to availability. Visit our Childcare page to find out more.

Pepi Penguin Nursery (6 months - 4 years)

Pepi Penguin Nursery is run by our team of English-speaking Childcare professionals. And we have our own dedicated space inside the hotel with toys and games that are just right for this age group.

There’s plenty of time for free play, as well as stories, singing and arts and crafts. And we always try to include some outdoor time as well – whether that’s a gondola ride or a spot of snow painting. And if your child normally has a nap, we’ll factor that in too.

Beanie Bear Club (4-8 years)

Beanie Bear Club is all about fun and games – and our English-speaking Childcare professionals always have a song or story up their sleeve. We have our own dedicated club room in the hotel, where kids can play with toys, get stuck into crafts or settle down with stories. Plus, when the weather’s nice, there are plenty of snowy activities on the cards too.

Please note: Ski school isn’t included with Beanie Bear Club, so you’ll need to add this separately when making your booking. Ski school collection is only included if you book your child’s lessons through us and you’ll still need to drop off your child yourself at ski school every morning.

Good to know

Both Pepi Penguin Nursery and Beanie Bear Club run for either 3, 5 or 6 days and must be pre-booked to guarantee a place.

All our childcare teams are English-speaking and have been reference checked, and care is taken to keep groups sizes small.

Please note, Childcare is at an extra charge, and in some instances does not extend the full length of the ski season. Give us a call to chat through your options.

Please note: Hotel Grand Paradiso has a mix of refurbished and traditional rooms. This means the room you're allocated may look slightly different from the photos shown.

When you arrive in the resort, the coach isn’t able to take you right up to the entrance of the Hotel Grand Paradiso, so you’ll be dropped off at the bottom of the driveway. From there, it’ll be a 1-minute walk.
