The charming 3* Hotel St Nicolas surely has to claim the prize for the most stunning and picturesque location, situated at an altitude of 1,200m, just 15kms from Aosta and overlooking the mountain range of the Gran Paradiso National Park.High on the valley side in the small, but well-catered for, village of St Nicolas, you can see for miles and look down on the valley below. The Pila gondola is approximately 35 minutes by coach.

The hotel is warm and cosy, traditional and welcoming and is perfect for school groups with its huge meeting room ideal for karaoke evenings, quiz nights or your own discothèque. There's even a stage if you fancy putting on a performance!

The rooms are mostly for 3, with a few for 4, and are very nicely appointed. All have private facilities. The hotel has a pleasant bar with lounge area and a large, spacious restaurant. The Hotel St Nicolas usually accommodates groups of up to 49 passengers, although additional beds may be available on request (up to a maximum of 75).
