BormioBormio could be defined as a hidden gem of a place.
We can't take the credit, this ancient Alpine town is founded on eco-friendly sustainability and offers unforgettable memories to all.
Thanks to its strategic location in the heart of the Alps in Valtellina, Bormio combines the beauty of nature with intricate architecture, offering a wonderful contrast and colours that will take your breath away.
The historic town centre is a mix of alleys and winding streets where you can still breathe in the atmosphere of medieval Bormio: beautiful old palazzi, churches, houses...every corner of this town emanates history and tradition. The local folklore is alive and unchanged by time. Every year local traditions are revived so that those who are passing through experience a little of that mystery that both invites curiosity and beguiles the visitor.
The taste buds are also enlivened by a local culinary tradition rich in incredible flavours. Pizzoccheri, polenta and cheese are just some of the Valtellinese dishes that you can try while getting lost wandering among the streets of the town. All simple peasant dishes that keep alive the aromas and flavours of old Bormio.
We arrived here after a hair raising ride over the Passo di Gavia, and were greeted warmly by the front desk receptionist who took us to our beautiful room. These rooms are lovely, with a small dining area, and couch...we discovered a small kitchenette in the room which would have been great if we were staying longer. The breakfast was good, and we ate a small lunch in the cafe on site which serves some of the best hot chocolate I've ever had. Highly recommend this place.

Wonderful luxury suites, tastefully appointed with all you'll need. Big walk in shower, luxury bed linen, balcony from the bedroom with views to the mountains. Hotel has it's own patisserie and coffee shop and is a very short walk from good restaurants and gelato. Best of all it is 15 mins from the start of the Stelvio Pass which means you can drive it more than once with an overnight stay here. Highly recommended as each suite comes with secure underground parking and the hotel staff couldn't be more helpful.

Beautiful hotel and spa. Very central location so the hotel doesn't have a huge garden and is very close to other buildings but it's not noisy or loud. Staff were brilliant and very helpful with our toddler. I would definitely recommend and hope to be back there myself soon.
