We spent five (3) nights in the historic Hotel Bagni Vecchi di Bormio during our trip to Bormio. The rooms are well-appointed with an array of amenities and several types of robes and slippers. After a day of hiking, sightseeing, or biking, the hotel offers a first-class spa offering an array of services including a wonderful steam room, outdoor pool, roman baths and much more! During our entire stay the service was 5 stars. Many thanks to everyone at Hotel Bagni Vecchi for helping us with our laundry and other needs!! We will be back. The Team at Jetsetz.com

“Heaven on Earth”

Great hotel and the hotel staff were excellent and accommodating in every regard! The restaurant was exceptional and the breakfast had everything imaginable to start your day! Thank you again for a great stay and I’ll be back,

“Too good to be true!”

A dream come true, warm thermal water amidst the most captivatingly beautiful surroundings, snow-capped mountains and old buildings taking you back hundreds of years! I couldn't ask for more!

This was one of the most relaxing holidays ever! A dream come true, warm thermal water amidst the most captivatingly beautiful surroundings, snow-capped mountains and old buildings taking you back hundreds of years! I couldn't ask for more! And the luxury of lounging about in towelling robes and having nothing to do except soak in the beauty and the warmth around you. We stayed for four nights and it was a great break. We had dinner every day at the restaurant Antica Osteria Belvedere because we wanted to stay in the infinity pool till late. It was a pleasant surprise - there was enough to choose from for four nights and it was very good especially for the price. Breakfast is excellent and a lovely way to start the day. Comfy in swimsuit and robe, a vast choice of items, then straight to the outdoor pool! We were booked on half board basis, so with breakfast and dinner. We then decided to have lunch too, and it was lovely! So out of the water, again in towelling robe, to lunch! All the food on offer, be it breakfast, lunch or dinner, was very tasty and very fresh. Pastries, cakes and focaccias were pleasantly light, pastas excellent! Also one of the best foie gras terrines I've had. The hotel itself is spic and span, extremely clean. Bed linen white and crisp, lovely white towels, thoughtful provision of towels to dry hair separately. Great toiletries bag of QC TERME products, very good quality indeed. The bathroom heater was marvellous at drying our swimsuit quickly to be used again soon, same day. The heating in the hotel is truly efficient - you come out of the warm thermal water, instantly freeze, put on robe and rush into the hotel building - heavenly! So the robe can be worn at all times, including breakfast and lunch, but not to dinner, understandably, as it is the time to change and enjoy a nice meal with a good bottle of wine. We used most the outdoor pool as we loved the panorama - I constantly dream of going again. But we also enjoyed the ancient indoor Roman baths, the outdoor archduchess tub and the indoor 'cascata', which is a forceful hot waterfall that makes your back and shoulders feel so good! There are other features such as a sauna too. As for me, I used to spend an entire morning in the outdoor pool, then after lunch and a nap, back into the outdoor pool to watch the scenery change at sunset and then when the night takes over - pure bliss in the warm water. It tends to get busier on weekends, with people who come for the thermal baths for the day, but we always managed to do what we wanted, somehow guests spread out over the place. Staff are excellent. Suffice to say that on Saturday morning we wanted to go to Bormio historic centre because it's enchanting, we had gone before. However no taxis were available because it was a busy weekend. The manager, Signor Alberto, took us himself in his own car! He didn't want payment and even gave us his mobile number in case we wouldn't find a taxi back! We were astounded at this gesture. For information, we landed at Bergamo and took a prebooked taxi straight from airport to hotel, three hours, but it went very smoothly. It was a marvellous experience and we honestly look forward to do it again, can't wait!!

The place is undeniably beautiful, stunning views, historic buildings, and a unique atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re stepping into another era. That’s exactly why this stay ended up feeling bittersweet: a place like this deserves much more care from the people managing it. I understand the business model relies heavily on day visitors, and of course profit matters. But right now it feels like the balance is off. It’s simply overcrowded. They could likely make the same (or better) revenue by increasing prices slightly while reducing the number of people allowed in, because the current volume is hurting both the experience and the condition of the facilities. As a hotel guest paying a lot to stay on-site, you don’t feel particularly looked after or “privileged” in any meaningful way. An example: all lockers are reserved for day users, so as guests we were basically forced to leave our belongings in the room. That’s the kind of detail that really highlights how the priorities are set. The day visitors tend to concentrate around the big pool for photos, so you can sometimes find the Roman baths and the smaller round pools a bit quieter—but they were consistently dirty, and overall the entire place could use much more attention, especially when it comes to cleaning and maintenance. For the price, this is not acceptable. One final note: the “romantic” room under the roof is not worth it and feels a bit like an upsell trap. Because of the low ceiling, it’s effectively no larger than the other rooms (if anything, it feels smaller and oddly empty). If you’re booking, I’d strongly recommend choosing a normal room instead. In short: spectacular location and potential, but right now it feels overcrowded, under-maintained, and not aligned with what hotel guests are paying for.
