Well hello there and welcome to the forum.

I was in Passo last year (March) snowboarding - cant remember the price of the lift passes so cant help out there unfortunately. I am sure you will be able to find it on t'interweb somewhere :wink:

I stayed in the hotel Eden which was an experience to say the least. The service was friendly beyond belief, the hotel manager was a great guy the hotel was always clean and nothing to complain about....However (there is always a however isnt there!)

The doors have carpet on the back of them - I know I drink a lot when I go out, but I have never felt the need to walk vertically up a door - maybe the italians are different?

The food? Well I am sorry to say that is it very average. Breakfast is what you would expect - continental with some odd cakes that actualy taste ok. But evening meal - that was awful. Cold meat (that is meant to be hot), cold veg, cold soup etc etc. I was forced to going to a local pizzeria at night - fantastic place and not that expensive (last year when teh Euro was more sensible). It is at the top of a short hill out of the main village - last year it was sheet ice which is great fun in shoes at the end of a drunkern night.

Me and my OH had a good time in Passo, the beer helped a lot.

The hotel might have changed now, but if not take your slippers for the carpeted doors :lol:

Have fun!

Welcome to the forum.

I was in Passo at Easter last year. Have to say that it isn't my favorite resort but a weeks skiing is a weeks skiing :lol: Its just not a very pretty or attractive resort and all the runs are short and not overly challenging.

I believe a 6 day lift pass costs in the region of 143euros.

I didn't stay in the Hotel Eden but judging by Icemans comments it sounds pretty typical of what we found in our Hotel. I have to say that we ended up eating out on a few nights as the food left so much to be desired. Found a fantastic pizzeria/restaurant up behind the lift pass office (can't remember the name I'm afraid)

I went DIY last year the Hotel Negrittella was great the offer was half board food was brilliant, choice of menu and you selected your choice of menu the night before which was no problem for us, the difference I think was it was not a package hotel the cliental was mainly Italian we were the only English staying there.
I'm trying to remember how much we paid it was about E260 that was for the two of us for four nights including Vino.
The resort was ok bars were friendly, but the slopes for me let the resort down, short runs, no difficult runs and you seem to spend too much time on the lifts. In fact we spent a lot more time on the slopes of Ponte Legno where the runs were more Red. If your wearing "L" plates it will be a great resort, for anybody above that give Passo a miss.

We stayed at the Hotel delle Alpi last year and the food was very good and the rooms very comfortable, we'd certainly go back.
