Hotel Cristallo in Canazei

Great stay, we had 2 rooms on the second floor which were both a good size, newly refurbished and very comfortable. All the hotel staff were lovely and friendly and the food was plentiful and on the whole tasty. The hotel was very close to the centre of the town so an easy walk back after enjoying some apres. We used the spa area a couple of times but found the chlorine levels were quite uncomfortable. The steam room and sauna were better. Canazei is a really pretty place with plenty of bars and restaurants to enjoy. Easy ski bus which takes you straight to belvedere gondola or Campitello for another fast gondola. I especially enjoyed the town swimming pool with a wonderful warm outside swimming area where you could enjoy watching the mountains and skiers whilst swimming in lovely warm water - I went twice! My only negative would be the man on reception - possibly the owner, not helpful or friendly. It doesnt hurt to smile occasionally.

A great newly refurbished hotel at the start of the village. Bus stop in either direction by the hotel The hotel is spotlessly clean and staff very friendly and helpful. We stayed as a group of 4 friends and found the food ample with plenty of choice (if you have dietary needs they will cater for you) I would recommend this hotel

First and foremost, the owner hostess, and her husband are extremely accommodating and helpful. The meal plan included with the room was excellent.. huge breakfast bar with à la carte eggs. Dinner is varied and very tasty. The rooms are comfortable, spotless, and quite large for European standards. Thank you, Dagma and Marco

We stayed here in January and were delighted by the Hotel and staff. Good accommodation, excellent food and very friendly staff. Second time in Canazei and first time at this Hotel. Would go back again without hesitation. Ski bus to the lift from just outside but we had a ski locker at the lift station and walked to the lift every morning in our normal shoes which was no problem.

This is the second visit to The Cristallo, my friends and I have taken a weeks skiing in both 2022 (9 of us) and 2023 (12 of us), and it is fabulous. The staff are great, friendly, and accommodating. The management team speak excellent English and understood the individual needs of the group. Just a few minutes walk from the Belvedere lift, the Hotel Cristallo is ideally situated for all your needs in Canazei. The food is great too! A good breakfast and evening menu option is available…and the wine! Great selection there also. Rooms are spacious, clean and very functional, and for that aprés relaxation the sauna/steam/pool area is excellent. We are already planning a third trip!

Booked as a ski holiday through Ingham's. Half board package. Had a spacious room alpine in style slightly dated but very comfortable. Bathroom had a good shower and the towels were changed everyday despite us not leaving them in the floor to be changed. The food was good. Self service breakfast was a bit intense as almost all guests for down for 7.30 so the queue for the 2 coffee machines was significant. Good spread of scrambled egg/bacon and continental options plus pastries fruit yogurt etc. Dinner was selected in the morning from 4 choices per course. Dinner then comprised of a self service salad bar (excellent) plus 3 courses ! Pasta starter was always on point. Good value house wine was on offer alongwith more expensive bottles wines. We never went hungry! The staff (a lot of Romanian) were always very friendly and helpful. Couldn't fault them. Hotel was a 10 minute walk from the main bubble 101. We bought the weekly bus pass from the hotel for €6 pp which made it bearable. The bus stop is right outside the hotel so very convenient in the morning. Since our week was in low season the frequency of the buses was poor. Either every half hour or once an hour - so timing was important. As a result we elected to walk back a couple of times at the end of the day when timing didn't work out. A bit of a pain but doable. As to the skiing, the Dolomites is a fun area. Pistes kept in good nick and well maintained despite lack of snow. Mainly reds with the odd black and blue. Mountain restaurants serve good food and wine at reasonable prices. Sella Ronda is easy to follow either way round and there are interesting spurs to go on from it i.e. Hidden Valley, Marmolada glacier, Ortisei etc. Italy and the Dolomites offer a nice change from the usual Austrian/French resorts which we have skied extensively.

Great hotel with nice employees...

Maniacal cleaning, very nice new rooms and attention to detail, the only flaw lack of a mini fridge ... very good kitchen and staff always available and ready to meet your needs .. finally a swimming pool with hot water and the possibility of sunbathing near the swimming pool… overall I highly recommend it !!! Thank you, see you soon!!
