Our take
Parkhotel Schachen is a practical base in San Giovanni in Val Aurina for families without a car, since free shuttle buses run to the Klausberg and Speikboden ski areas. The wellness centre with indoor pool and sauna is free for guests, ski rental is on site, guided mountain excursions are offered, and the grounds include large gardens. Most rooms have balconies. A 7.2 from 53 guests suggests a stay that is fair rather than polished. Travellers wanting ski-in access or a more refined hotel should compare higher-rated options in the valley.
- Make use of the free shuttle to Klausberg and Speikboden for hassle-free ski access.
- Take advantage of the wellness centre's indoor pool and sauna after a day on the slopes.
- Consider a room with a balcony to fully appreciate the striking Dolomite views.
