A practical base for exploring Sestriere: we bought ski passes at the hotel and stored skis downstairs, so mornings ran smoothly. Our room had a private bathroom and was comfortable after long days on the slopes. The 24-hour front desk was reassuring with children, especially on our late arrival. Dinners at the Italian restaurant were easy and tasty, and the bar was nice for a quiet drink once the kids were asleep.

Skiing right to the door was a big win for our family, and our family room had a balcony with mountain views where we dried gloves in the afternoon sun. Sestriere Colle is a short walk away. The traditional Italian restaurant was a highlight: proper pasta and polenta that the kids devoured after skiing. The terrace and bar were nice for an evening drink, and the minimarket was handy for snacks.

The wellness area has a pool and jacuzzi, and the garden with an outdoor fireplace and the sun terrace work well after the slopes. A continental buffet breakfast is served daily. My advice: book early for school holidays. Guests rate it 8.5 across 76 reviews.

Skiing right to the door was a joy with the kids, and our family room had mountain views they loved.

Half board with Italian cooking took all the dinner decisions off our plate, which is gold with tired kids. Our family room had a balcony with mountain views, and the slopes were within easy reach. After skiing the children headed for the pool and jacuzzi while we used the spa. I even joined a yoga class one morning, and the fitness room was there too. Ski storage kept everything in order.

In central Sestriere, Grand Hotel Sestriere is a family-run hotel that suits families thanks to its easy ski school access. Rooms have mountain views, and ski storage keeps boots and skis out of the way. After skiing, children can use the pool and jacuzzi in the spa and wellness area, and I would keep the spa time for parents in the late afternoon. It also works well for a romantic getaway.

The panoramic Alpine views from the hotel were lovely, and the nearest ski lift is just 200 metres away, so the kids could walk there in their boots.

My advice: its 7.6 score from 415 reviews is below many neighbours, so read recent comments before committing to a family week.
