Poster: A snowHead
|
I felt I should give a heads up to Madonna di Campiglio winter sport enthusiasts.
We have been told that from November 2015, an accommodation tax comes into force.
We are expecting this to be between 0.70 Euros and 1.70 Euros per guest per night in all forms of accommodation, including self catered apartments.
This will be payable at check out, with your final bill.
Until now, this tax has only applied to accommodation in cities such as Venice and Rome, but it now looks like it is to be rolled out everywhere

@Campiglio, thanks for the heads up. We're booked for half term again, so I'm keen to know if there any lift or piste developments in the pipeline?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

To the best of my knowledge, the only project under discussion is the removal of the old Belvedere drag lift station and a new gondola station taking it's place, but this is a long way off.

@Campiglio, thanks for the info. It's a bit of an eyesore now the old Belvedere drag, why have they stopped using it?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

The Belvedere was closed purely because of it's age.

Going off subject for a minute, we have started an appeal in partnership with Rotary International and the resort lift company for aid in the fight against polio.
Please take a look at the following link http://www.enchantedholidays.co.uk/polio-appeal/
Please tell anybody you know who is going to Madonna di Campiglio, and, of course, anybody they know.

Especially the one that links from MdC to Folgarida.

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

I'm sure the lift companies would like to do a lot more, including a more expansive connection to Folgarida.
The problem is that there are 5 separate communes governing Madonna di Campiglio alone and each of these levies taxes one way or the other on the resort.
MdC is seen as a cash cow by the main governing commune in Pinzolo and the lift company operates purely as a franchise
It seems to all intents and purposes that this lift company is making a fortune, but this is far from the truth.
Any new lifts or pistes are financed by the lift company at their own risk
