Hotel Dufour, near Aosta

Near to the lovely mountain town of Aosta, the three-star Hotel Dufour is located in Gressoney La Trinite, in the heart of the Monterosa ski resort. Encircled by the Alps and with easy access to the Parco Nazionale del Gran Paradiso and the ski resorts of Mont Blanc, this is the perfect holiday destination. For some of Valle d'Aosta's most beautiful mountains and valleys you need to make for the south of the region, down to the Parco Nazionale del Gran Paradiso - Italy's first national park. Here you might be lucky enough to see ibex, chamois and golden eagles, circling the craggy mountain tops. Although it is primarily a summer resort, the cross country skiing here is good too and is accessed by frequent buses.

Built in 1959, this cosy and informal hotel offers a unique atmosphere, combining quiet relaxation with all the home comforts. Each of the double and triple rooms come equipped with TV, telephone, bathroom and in-room safe, with the added extra of unparallelled views of the rugged scenery. There is a great restaurant providing local and regional food and a bar serving fine wines, beer and warming apres-ski hot chocolate. For aching muscles there is a sauna and for full wallets there is a casino. Hiking and rambling can be enjoyed by all as can the nine-hole golf course, massage and cross country skiing, all of which can be arranged through the friendly concierge desk.

With luggage storage, internet access, express check-out and laundry services also available, this traditional Alpine hotel offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere in a beautiful and convenient location - a real gem!
