They also use the Sporthotel Royer in Schladming, but thats expensive, so it might be that I use the Rossl. It looks a damned site better than the clubhotel in Serre Che I used.

Tony whats a clubhotel? never heard that expression before and what was wrong with it?

Theres tons of clubhotels around. They are basically hotels, but the chef gets a night off so you have to go out and eat. I thought it was going to be like chalet board, but its half board in essence.
You can get posh ones but the ones I have seen are usually 2 star or 3 star, and offer reasonable god value.
The one I stopped in was like the Luftwaffe head quarters - more akin to a military barracks than a hotel, but it had 2 bars, 2 restaurants, and bedrooms with ensuite facilities, and for what we paid it was ok. I just wouldnt choose to go back to it again.

Take a look at Equity Ski's website and see what Clubhotels they use.

I had a look, they dont seem to show pics of accomodation just descriptions that sound ok. I will remember now what clubhotel means :lol:

Thats a chalet hotel, not a clubhotel. Big difference, especially on price.

Not sure about the other Italian resorts that Equity/Rocketski do that are not in the Milky Way, but I've been to Andalo and it's really nice.
Great place for kids and early skiers. Won't suit people who want miles of piste, but recommended all the same.
