Three-star hotels that vary greatly in degree of comfort make up the bulk of the accommodation in Passo Tonale, and there are a few four-stars. Most hotels are located on the main road through the resort, and quite convenient for the lifts, however some are quite a way from most of the shops and bars. Apartments are available too, on a road that runs parallel to the main road.
The other option is to stay in the more traditional resort of Ponte di Legno, which shares the Ponte di Legno-Tonale ski area with Passo Tonale.
Few UK tour operators serve either Passo Tonale and Ponte di Legno, but packages are also available through ski specialist agents.

Hotels
La Mirandola
A former monastery now beautifully converted into a three-star hotel, La Mirandola has kept lots of its original features, from the original chapel to the vaulted ceilings in the dining room and in the piano bar. It’s out of town on the slopes and an easy walk or slide to and from a piste – or there’s a mini-bus service to and from town and lifts. The food has a good reputation and there’s a smart spa with sauna, steam room and hot tub.

Albergo Eden
This modest three-star is central and about a five-minute walk to the lifts. Albergo Eden has been run by the same family for 40 years and the rooms are good value for money and comfortable. A first-floor TV room adds to the comforts and good wholesome home cooking is served in the cosy dining room.

This has a sauna, steam room, Roman bath (cooler than a sauna and less humid than a steam room), ice cave and an outdoor sauna, along with a salt cave.
