Hotel Savoia Debili Reviews

Flight from Manchester good, breakfast onboard. Turin airport reasonably efficient, reps on hand and helpful. Short coach transfer to resort. Taxing walk up the hill to hotel from coach drop off point, arrived around noon. Hotel not ready for us until 13.30 so dropped bags off and went to hire shop and for walk around town. Welcome meeting informative and helpful. Arranged private lessons with friendly local school Ski Instructor 'Davide'. Hotel ideally located for Clotes lift, ski hire shop, mini supermarket and town centre. Hotel staff very friendly. Accommodation very basic but efficient, retro 70s style. Food in hotel plentiful but sometimes a bit plain for evening meal. Breakfast was basic DIY buffet. Fresh cappuccino's made by friendly waitress excellent. Very friendly helpful young English barman. Location possibly a bit noisy late at night if you are a light sleeper or sleep with windows open like us. Neilson welcome meeting informative and helpful. Arranged private lessons with friendly local school Ski Instructor 'Davide'. Ski runs and snow conditions throughout week were excellent, 2 days of spring skiing, two days of partial whiteout and brilliant powder, last two days fabulous sun and great snow. Sauze very good, Sansicario also v good, Sestriere busy - advanced skiers must do the drag lift up to the top of the Olympic black. 3 days of private Ski lessons excellent and with very good communication, in English - well worth it. Only concern is the chair lifts and attendants nowhere near as efficient or safety conscious as in Austria or even France - watch those beginners and children! Mountain huts and restaurants all very good quality food, good value and friendly staff. Apres ski in town pubs and bars friendly and lively. Good restaurants especially spaghetti house in old town area. All in all great week enjoyed by me and my partner. Would definitely do it again.

Resort - Brilliant. Pretty village, cheap food and drink. Only one board-specific shop but it was good - 360. Conditions - Outstanding. Some of best snow & powder we've ever had. Slopes - Great. Lots of tree runs, big area if you made the effort to travel but a lot of the best runs were near Sauze anyway. Hotel - Decent. Good sized rooms, modern en suite bathroom. Very close to lifts - 1-2 mins walk. Food - Decent. Not the best we've had in Italy but still way better than you get in Austria etc.

What a great hotel at a bargain price. Rally felt looked after here, especially at dinner time - wow what a lovely load of food! Rally friendly staff in this hotel and couldn’t help us enough. One evening we decided to pay and make use of the wellness area and pamper ourselves - we had the place to ourselves! We keep coming back to Sauze and haven’t chosen this place this year just as we wanted a change, fingers crossed it matches the lovely Savoia. Book it, you won’t be dissolved.

We loved Sauze, 3 of our party of 4 were beginners so we all had lessons which was great and a good bonding experience with other skiers. Overall everyone came away happy and loving the experience. Hotel had a comfortable, relaxed feel, good friendly service and lovely plentiful food (choice from daily set menus, great risottos). Lounge / games room was good fun for family entertainment. Heated boot room was good and wifi was free. Only downside was the noise from the bar to the rear which stays open late, take ear plugs, still a great hotel anyway.

Late season holiday and snow conditions were good. Snowed while we were there, so good skiing on well-pisted runs. Resort quiet and friendly and the ski reps were efficient and informative. Some long button tows, which could prove difficult for inexperienced skiers and the runs were mostly red, some black, so not a place for beginners, I would say. Hotel was pleasant, staff accommodating and the food was really good.
