I recently spent a few days at the Stella Alpina up in Ronco Bedretto, where I was most impressed by the cosy atmosphere and the warm welcome I received. Mauro Oliani and his team were ready to fulfil every wish and treated me with great respect and friendliness. I would warmly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to go skiing,... More

We booked a superior room with the smartbox, but we were given the smallest room of the hotel with two seprate beds and a broken shower. When we asked to change room the manager said that the hotel was fully booked that was a lie because I checked on Internet and some rooms were still available. When the manager checked... More

We booked the hotel via booking.com and received a request from the hotel to cancel the reservation. As far as I understand, it's not the first time they do that, so please be aware.

Staff seems to be very busy running the restaurant, bar, and hotel so you may need to be patient upon your arrival. The room we were in was very clean and nicely decorated. There were however no electric sockets to be used outside of... More

From the previous review and also the hotel website we were expecting a different stay to the one we got! We booked the hotel using the hotel website which states all rooms have w/c. They do not. We booked two "silver" rooms which we found were not en-suite. We were informed we would have to pay more for a "gold"... More

Stella Alpina is just about 10mn from Airolo, in a village of less than 20 houses in the most peaceful and serene setting. We live in Lugano and wanted to get away from the heat of the summer and found the perfect place! We got rooms number 5 and 6: each has a window and a balcony overlooking the valley... More
