crispy, this won't be of a lot of help, but I'll say it anyway. When we went there, I didn't rent but those in our party who did all used Sport Center and were very happy with them. They are a bit of a walk from the lifts though, and as no one used any of the others, I can't say they're any better. They also have no deposit place, either.

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

That's the one we used - and as I say, all were pleased. It's opposite the Jumeaux (that was the hotel we stayed in). I may have got the name wrong (it may not be the Sports Center), but teh picture on their page looks about right. Anyway, 4thefunofit's directions are correct.

David@traxvax,
No, but I didn't meet any British there - though there were plenty there.

It's been a while since I went to Cervinia, but I think there is a hire place with lockers at the mid station. Since there are a few steps to negotiate at the main lift station, as comparative beginners we were glad not to have to lug skis around town. On reflection, I'm not too sure about this! Matteo?????

Chris Bish, I think there is, yes. However I think that there are a few slots to leave your skis up there even if you've hired them from elsewhere. Also, if you're staying above the bottom station, or down the main road towards the tunnel, you don't need to use the steps and if you stay in certain hotels or complexes, they run mini-buses to the door. So the steps are avoided if you know where to book.
You can also avoid them (and the bottle-neck) by going up the drags, though this involves a short walk along the piste between lifts.
