I returned from the Dei Camosci on 29th Jan after a fabulous week staying here.
My room was a single, it was small but was very well equipped. The bed was very cumfy, always very cosy and had a fabulous view to the rear of the hotel of the mountains. There is a TV but only a couple of English channels but I wasn't there to watch telly. The batroom had a shower which always had hot water and was equipped with a hairdryer, clean towels whenever you wanted.
The food in the hotel was very good and very big portions, either 3 or 4 courses with at least 3 choices for each. My friends were staying in another hotel on Bed and Breakfast and they came and ate at the Camosci several times and the cost was 25 euros each, much cheaper than eating 3 courses in resort.
The hotel bar was very cosy and welcoming, most of the residents were with Crystal and we enjoyed chatting about our days over a few drinks in the evenings. The bars in resort were very quiet during the week and we found that our bar was better, probably because it was out of town a it we were all happy to stay in the cosy bar and chat.
The hotel is 15 mins walk to the resort center but it is an easy, wel lit road. The hotel mini bus was a great help, it takes you to Dolonne Gondola @ 8.30, 9.00, 9.30 and 10.00am and picks you up @ 3.30, 4.00.4.30 and 5.00pm but if you phone the hotel they will pick you up if you finish early or need picked up from the bus station as we did when we went to La Thuile for the day (recommended as it is a larger area and there is a free bus and all included on your lift pass). The bus was very useful (as my friend who stayed in a different hotel hurt her knee on the first day of out trip) I would come back to the hotel after skiing and get a quick shower then get on the bus and the driver would drop me off at her hotel, he was also kind enough to pick up and drop off my friend when she wanted to came to my hotel.
The staff are very helpfull, nothing is too much trouble, I would definately stay here again.
