Has anyone stayed in this hotel ?
How accessible are the slopes from the hotel ?
Any information would be welcome.
Thanks

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

Good reports from trip advisor, and a shuttle mini bus from the hotel to lifts.

Thanks .
Hopefully the shuttle is frequent and doesn't take too long as we are likely to be a group of 20.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Check with the hotel. Normally the shuttle bus will be a minivan and they'll run whenever someone needs transporting and will give you a number to call if you need picking up.
Or as Luigi suggests, the ski school rental shop next to the Boe gondola has heated lockers in its basement room where you can leave your ski gear and then walk back in your snow boots. That's what we do but we stay in a closer hotel and the Greif is up the hill a bit.

We too are a family group of 20. Tried to book through Crystal as the hotel suited all our needs but they did not have enough rooms for our size.

for 2024! Thanks to all.

Now that’s a good plan. Let’s hope we don’t want the same week

Last March, we stayed on the street across the intersection (Strada Sassongher) from the Greif on Strada Aga. There's a ski bus stop there and its a fairly big bus which seems to run all the time. They charged through our hotel but a week's pass was minimal (10 euro?). We never showed the bus pass to the driver... Would be a 5 minute hike from your hotel I'd guess.
If you don't take the bus, its about a 20 minute hike to the Boe lift and mostly downhill. Or a three minute bus ride. On the way back, we usually skied the strip of snow under the bridge to get closer to the main street into the neighborhood (Morin), then just walked uphill for a few minutes. Really not that far to hike. We were too impatient to wait for the bus.
I dimly recall that the bus stopped to either pick people up or drop them off at the main intersection (Sassongher and Aga/Parus). I'm sure your hotel will give you a few options...
Cheers!
