Albugnano Holidays from £167

It’s an old and quiet basic property for 4 stars hotel. The breakfast was ok, but didn’t have much variety.

The staff were very courteous and friendly, and the location of the hotel is very convenient within walking distance of the centre of Turin and all of the public transport network.The room was clean and spacious, and the breakfast had a varied choice of continental/cereals/ tea/ coffee /fruit juice, and served in a very elegant dining room. The hotel features many historical and attractive architectural rooms and furnishings.

From the moment we arrived the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. We arrived late but the receptionist took time to show local sites and amenities on the map and recommended things to do. The room was clean and large, the bed comfy and there was a little balcony for a morning coffee or after dinner drink. Breakfast was good and pretty reasonable - a few days we skipped it to explore local options instead. The hotel has a pleasant outdoor terrace where you can take breakfast, chill in the afternoon or have pre-dinner drinks. A shame it closed at 8pm along with the bar but there are no plenty of local spots for a later drink, including down by the river and in one of the several buzzing squares. All in all a great base for exploring Turin, the historic sites in the area, and day trips to other towns/cities. We made the most of fast train to Milan and had a great day.

I have stayed in many 5 star properties, but have not received the level of attentiveness nor service as we have experienced at the Mont Blanc Hotel Village. The staff are truly experts at performing their respective jobs. I am literally the pickiest person when it comes to customer service and not only could I not find fault with anything here, it all exceeded my very high expectations. I am truly impressed. The accommodations are lovely in their traditional vibe, but with all of the necessary amenities (modern bathroom features, etc.). The chef is obviously skilled and the menu is very northern Italy. We have not explored the little village of La Salle as we have driven to Courmayeur to skate and ski during the day. Courmayeur is lovely and I can’t say enough about the Courmayeur Sport Complex ice rink and coaches. It was amazing being able to travel to Europe and continue my training by working with Marika Poli as my “on the road” figure skating coach. We will certainly return and bring the kids next time!

Excellent position, good kitchenette facilities , staff service is by internet of phone but return calls were always handled ptomptly.
