About Grand Hotel Sestriere

Staying at the Grand Hotel Sestriere puts you right in the middle of the resort. The Cit Roc chairlift is a short walk away, so catching the first chairlift is easy. If you don't fancy walking in your ski boots, the hotel runs a free ski shuttle bus to and from the lifts - keeping things simple and stress-free so you can focus on maximising your time on the slopes. 

The perfect ski day doesn't end when the lifts close - it ends at the spa. Give your muscles time to relax and recharge in the hotel's wellness area after a day on the mountain. Sink into the bubbling warmth of the hot tub, or sweat it out in the steam room and sauna. If you're feeling brave, boost your circulation with a quick cold plunge before winding down with a herbal tea in the quiet relaxation zone. You'll wake up the next morning feeling refreshed and ready to conquer the mountain all over again. 

Start your evening in the cosy bar, where you'll browse an impressive wine list of over 1,500 labels. When you're ready for dinner, there is nothing better than a hearty meal. Stick to the classics at the Central Restaurant for traditional Italian favourites like pizza and pasta. If you're in the mood for something a bit more exclusive, treat yourself to an upgrade at La Vineria del Colle. This à la carte restaurant serves up incredible Piedmontese dishes and expert wine pairings.
