Hotel La Nigritella

La Nigritella is a cute, small hotel about ten mins walk away from the main ski lift at Campo Smith. It has room enough for 20 people, which worked perfectly as there were 20 of us on a recent ski trip to Bardo. It meant we were able to treat the hotel as a home away from home. The owner, Stefano, made sure we felt like we could treat the hotel as our own home and went above and beyond what could have been reasonably expected. For instance, on arrival, his dad gave one of party a lift into town to collect something. He sourced a cake for one of the kids when it was their birthday. He made sure breakfast was ready 30 mins earlier than billed so that we could get the kids to their lessons every day. The man is a superstar. In terms of rooms, they are small but very comfortable with nice bathrooms and plenty of storage. Nothing fancy, but this is a small family run hotel after all. The dining area is a nice size and was more than adequate for 20 of us. The walk is down hill in the morning and uphill in the evening. All I can say is it’s only ten mins and you definitely get to burn off all that cheese and bread from the mountain lunches! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend La Nigritella. It was homely, welcoming and extremely good value. Above all that though is the most amazingly helpful host in Bardo. Grazie Stefano. Jason
