Grand Hotel Savoia

Grand Hotel Savoia is a hotel in Cortina d'Ampezzo. It sits in the resort centre, which puts the shops, the bars and the Christmas market on the doorstep rather than at the end of a bus ride. Cots and family rooms are available, which is the detail that decides it for anyone travelling with small children. Skiworld class this one as a luxury property — their classification, not ours. It has a hot tub, a sauna and a swimming pool. In the last week of December the afternoons are short and everybody comes in cold, which is when an outdoor hot tub stops being a luxury and starts being the best thing in the resort.

Cortina d'Ampezzo scores 38 out of 100 on our Christmas Snow Score, with the village at 1224m. That makes it more weather-dependent than most in late December, which is worth weighing before you book.

Grand Hotel Savoia is a hotel rather than a chalet, so rooms are booked individually and there is no whole-property hire. That suits a couple, or a group happy to be under one roof without sharing a kitchen and a sitting room. Rooms sleep up to 4.

Bed configuration is the thing most worth checking directly with the operator — how a chalet divides its beds matters more at Christmas than the headline number.
