Overview
Set in the peaceful hamlet of Orsia near Gressoney, the Locanda del Lysjoch offers a traditional alpine retreat at the foot of Monte Rosa. Surrounded by mountain scenery, it combines a quiet location with convenient access to the ski area, thanks to a ski bus stop just a minute’s walk away and a short ride to the lifts.
The hotel has a classic mountain character, with wood and stone interiors, warm lighting, and a cosy atmosphere throughout. Rooms are simple, comfortable, and traditionally styled, featuring inviting colours and authentic alpine touches that reflect the local setting.
Breakfast is served buffet-style with a selection of hot and cold options, including regional cheeses, cold cuts, fruit, and freshly prepared omelettes. Guests can choose to upgrade to half board, which includes hearty three-course evening meals, or dine from the à la carte menu, showcasing regional specialities from the Aosta Valley and Piedmont. Traditional dishes such as carbonade, ravioli, soups, game, local desserts, and regional wines feature prominently, with some recipes still prepared on a wood-burning stove for added authenticity.
After a day on the slopes, the hotel’s welcoming pub provides a relaxed setting to enjoy a drink and unwind in a friendly, informal atmosphere.

About Gressoney
Right in the heart of the Monte Rosa ski area, Gressoney is an ideal base for exploring one of Italy’s quieter ski regions. Towering peaks surround the valley, with long red and black runs perfect for fast carving, plus some of the country’s best off-piste terrain. Hiring a guide opens up huge 1,000m descents across wide snowfields and challenging gullies, with consistently uncrowded slopes and excellent powder conditions.
Gressoney has a relaxed, authentic alpine feel, with accommodation spread across a string of sleepy villages. Staffal offers the best piste access, with many properties just steps from the lifts, while Gressoney La Trinité and Gressoney St Jean sit further down the valley, both reachable by free ski bus. These villages are especially picturesque, with cobbled streets, wooden buildings and cosy bars and restaurants for low-key evenings.
Nightlife is limited, so the focus here is firmly on skiing by day and unwinding at your hotel in the evening.
