Hotel Lo Scoiattolo

“Excellent bed and pillow, very conveniently situated at the central point of the town but quiet still”

- situated in a convenient location, within 5-10 mins walking distance from the bus terminal (though a bit of up slope walking, but that applies to every hotel here as the bus terminal is at the bottom of courmayeur valley) - the proximity of town centre from the hotel - yet is relative quiet - cr… more

- situated in a convenient location, within 5-10 mins walking distance from the bus terminal (though a bit of up slope walking, but that applies to every hotel here as the bus terminal is at the bottom of courmayeur valley) - the proximity of town centre from the hotel - yet is relative quiet - crucial for me as a solo traveller depending on public transport - a quaint hotel, size not big but the owners and staff tried the best to provide a comfortable stay - had stayed in a single room, and the size is adequate, with a spacious bathroom and a nice balcony (facing the road, and also the snow mountain, sound of birds in early morning, sound of cars i day time, ) - i particularly like the adjustable room temperature, and no carpet in the room - the bed and the duvet are very comfy, and the pillow is made of memory foam and latex, a welcoming and essential arrangement for people having problems on the neck and spine. (my deepest appreciation! my first time having such a hearty arrangement ) - the ventilation fan in the bathroom run very quietly - the deco of the room is practical, partly modern and retaining antique taste (that met my preference) - water boiler available in the room - a nice touch with a little piece of valrhona chocolate as the welcome gift - the wellness centre is an absolute treat. booking of private sessions, and so nice that it can be booked all day long, unlike most other hotels. there is a sauna and a very special jacuzzi with multiple functions (i really love it and wish to hang out in the little pool all day long!) - breakfast with reasonable variety, and eating in the restaurant facing scenic view from large glass window - no luck to try the dinner as the restaurant was closed for dinner due to the end of the season - the staff are extremely helpful and attentive, providing much information even before arrival. - e.g. One day, I had booked the wellness centre at 1400 hours then went skiing. When driving me to the gondola, the driver (I suspected he is the manager or the owner) reminded me of no shuttle bus during 1245-1400 hours, and asked if I have to change the wellness booking time. (I told him I had planned to walk back - its around 15mins without ski boots to all hotels - I brought my shoes to be placed at either the ski shop or the mountain station). - The attentiveness and hospitality of the staff (including but not only him) is very much appreciated. thank you so much! - had enjoyed the stay very much and would like to stay again on the next visit.

“It’s Great!”

We took the bus into Courmayeur and the hotel was just a short (uphill) walk from the bus stop. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful.

We took the bus into Courmayeur and the hotel was just a short (uphill) walk from the bus stop. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. We had an extra day with nothing planned so the front desk helped us with information about the area (we ended up taking the bus to a nearby town, Pre Saint Didier for a hike and the hot springs). We were there a little early in the season so the hotel restaurant wasn’t open for dinner yet but the breakfast was amazing. We also used the hotel spa which was relaxing. Rooms were bright and clean. Really enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend.

“Charming, close to centro storico and hiking trails, lovely staff, excellent breakfast.”

Wonderful locally-owned charming hotel. Small but comfortable and well-appointed room with balcony and lovely view. Karl had loads of information and was so helpful.

Wonderful locally-owned charming hotel. Small but comfortable and well-appointed room with balcony and lovely view. Karl had loads of information and was so helpful. Unknown name, but woman at front desk in the morning knew exactly how to advise us to find the best way up to the TMB trail, walking right from the hotel through the upper town. She also advised us how to take the bus back from Refugio Bonatti (via trail down into the valley near La Vachey) at the end of the day. Breakfast was amazing too, with local typical food and as much espresso as desired! Highly recommended.
