Steep slopes, traditional Italian food and a good selection of fun bars for apres skiing. It can however get very busy during italian holiday periods. The off-piste options are ok but the groomed pistes are exceptional. Well connected runs, steep pistes and plenty of technical skiing, catering more to an intermediate or advanced skier

Great place to go if you are a beginner/ intermediate. Loved it this year. The ski school was okay. But big groups and not split in the best way for ability. Highly recommend

Unfortunately when I went to sestriere it was nearing the end of the season (we went in Easter) and so many of the runs were not open and the accommodation I stayed in was closing down so we were pretty much the only ones there. However this did mean the resort was incredibly quiet and so despite there only being a few runs open we had a blast without having to wait in queues at any of the lifts. The bars at the bottom of slopes were also a great atmosphere. I went here as a part of a family holiday with mine and another family and there was plenty to entertain us all.

Ski area and lift facilities felt very poorly thought out and dated. A lot of the lifts are very slow, if they were running at all. This led to serious bottle necks in certain areas of the ski area, where waits could reach up to 30 minutes at busy times (lunchtime/end of day commute)

Great area with accommodation right at the lifts. Vast terrain to explore with links to other resorts and you can even venture over to France. great value for money overall

A fantastic week away in Sestriere with a large snow fall when we arrived. Unfortunately due to amount of snow this closed several lifts but we had time to explore resort. We stayed at hotel which allowed us ski in ski out.

The pistes were perfectly groomed. The slopes were ideally suited for all levels of skier. The lift machinery was slightly dated. The use of a ski and boot room at the lift station is a great idea to allow you to enjoy apres ski and walking home in trainers instead of ski boots. Bars and restaurants are plentiful and staff friendly and helpful.

Great location for school ski trips, with lots of ski area and connection to other resorts. I really liked the small town but apres ski was limited.
