Hotel Du Col - Sestriere

Hi All, we've booked a week's skiing in Sestriere at the Hotel Du Col in January. Just wondered if anyone has stayed there and if so what did you think of the hotel? I've read somewhere that they have ski hire in the hotel? However, I don't really want to wait til we get there to find that they're selection isn't very good. Anyone have any discount codes to pre-book online? Cheers

We had a week there in March. I'm certain there was no ski hire in the hotel but there are several hire places in the parade in which the hotel is located. The hotel was good value for money with very friendly staff and a nice owner. Everybody rushes to the buffet at the start of meal times but be patient 'cos there's plenty for everybody. Also straight out of the boot room and you're on the snow.
