Albergo Gran Paradiso - centro benessere - ristorante - Noasca

Basic room but spotlessly clean, with a super comfortable double bed and pillows for a great night’s sleep — all you need after a long day of trekking. The half-board option is incredibly generous: a hearty yummy dinner with three courses of your choice from several options — and they often offer seconds without even being asked! Breakfast is all you can eat, varied and high quality. All of this for only €75 — a price that’s nearly impossible to find in Italy for the quality and service you get. Definitely an amazing place you’ll want to come back to. Thank you.

This albergo was an unforgettable, even cinematic experience. We arrived from our GTA tour and entered into what for us was an eccentric, somewhat chaotic, but ultimately heartfelt, sincere and intense world. A group of 50 italian hikers were staying there too, feasting, making speeches, laughing, holding a banquet of dionysian proportions, for which the owner of the Albergo was responsible, and for which she received loud applause. She, a sovereign, brusque, but warm and genuine woman, works day and night and manages a motley troupe of young international workers. The food was of excellent quality, plentiful, surprising, and local. There was too much of everything, but nothing went to waste. This means that the variety one receives might sometimes seem unusual, but it's always delicious so I didn't care. Everything was done with generosity and care. The room was also very good. I would definitely recommend the place, but also advise travellers to be open to local and cultural differences. The customer is not king here, but he is also not neglected.

Great food and decent rooms, but the worst hospitality we’ve ever experienced. We had a misunderstanding about the price - we thought it was per room and not per head. No big deal from our side, we were a bit startled at first since we had expected another price but we were happy to pay per head, we didn’t make a fuss about it. But we were met with such hostility from the owner, saying it was outrageous that we would even suggest it would cost so little (“We’re not in the Republic of Congo here”) and that “everyone in the valley is stupid, you’re the only intelligent one” (direct quote from the owner). She started ridiculing us in front of other customers as we were still in the room and didn’t say goodbye or thank you whatsoever. Extremely humiliating experience especially considering we were kind and respectful throughout. We had enjoyed our stay here until that point, but meeting customers with an attitude like this is an absolute no-go. Never experienced something like this before.
