QC Terme Grand Hotel Bagni Nuovi

The area is unbelievably scenic. The spa complex is huge and very good. However the hotel itself is pretty medicare, especially since it claims to have five stars. What makes a good five-star experience? Feeling special being their guest. It’s not at all the case with this hotel. The staff doesn't look particularly friendly or welcoming—not much smiling or nice words in general. We’ve heard “no” too many times from them: Can we sit there? No. Can we move our reservation to the restaurant? No. Can we eat now? No. Is the bar open? No. Does the bar have snacks? No. Etc., etc. The restaurant is a separate story: absolutely average food served in small portions, but enormously overpriced compared to what you can have in the neighbouring village for three times less money. If you stay there, save your money and don’t eat at the restaurant—it isn't worth it. The rooms are nice and have great views, but, c’mon, mould in the bathroom in such a place? Absolutely terrible bed making your back ache? On top of that, no fresh water in the rooms, all bar snacks are paid for, and toiletries are not replenished in time—we lived two days without shower gel. One more thing to consider: The area is absolutely not pedestrian-friendly. If you want to have dinner in the village, you can forget about your glass of wine, because you’ll need to drive there. All in all, if you’re a fan of the area (and believe me, you should be) and want to spend some time there, maybe a cheaper option won’t make you feel cheated. If you love QC spas (as my wife and I do), you can always drop by Bagni Nuovi’s spa without living in the hotel.

The hotel has beautiful grounds and is in a great location. That said, there were some significant problems with service. There was a conference during the same time we were staying. The hotel essentially compromised on service to non-participants in order to focus on the attendees. They didn't allow any room service or access to the restaurant while we were there. The breakfast was included, but the waitstaff never asked if we needed anything nor helped with coffee, etc. This wasn't unique to us, as we saw other guests having the same experience. When the conference attendees did depart, the service didn't improve much. Neither my wife nor I speak Italian. We weren't helped at breakfast, even though the waitress did approach two other tables with Italian-speaking guests. The grounds were really nice and the are plenty of options for soaking pools, saunas, etc., but the workout facility is spartan to say the least. While the staff was courteous and the location was OK, we wouldn't stay there again if in Bormio

Come regalo di compleanno per il mio ragazzo ho deciso di comprare un voucher (280 € circa) con annessa scatola, molto carina che comprendeva un pernotto presso le terme QC. Dopo un’attenta ricerca abbiamo deciso di provare l’hotel bagni nuovi. Una volta arrivati abbiamo fatto il check-in, la stanza era piccolina ma molto carina con una vista sulle piscine del parco e sulle montagne, paesaggio mozzafiato. In stanza abbiamo trovato i nostri accappatoi e un set da bagno ricco di creme QC terme, le ho trovate tutte ottime. Che dire il parco termale, bellissimo, pieno di attrazioni e di saune di ogni genere, possibilità di fare trattamenti, tantissime stanze in cui potersi rilassare, sorseggiando un te e guardando un panorama meraviglioso, verso le 19 siamo andati a fare l’aperitivo incluso nel nostro pacchetto che ci ha saziato anche per la cena. Cibo buono. Il nostro soggiorno è stato talmente piacevole che abbiamo optato per un late check out che ci ha premesso di stare un’altra giornata alle terme. Personale disponibile, ti cambiano l’accappatoio tutte le volte che serve. Esperienza ottima. Consigliatissimo
