The 7 Deadly Sins of Booking Ski Apartments Livigno

So you’re getting yourself geared up for your skiing trip to Livigno, the itinerary is planned, the flights are booked and you’ve kind of forgotten about accommodation as you’re wrapped up in the excitement of that awesome holiday.

Your accommodation when it comes to a holiday is actually one of the most important factors, as you don’t want to be staying somewhere that’s uncomfortable, doesn’t suit your needs as it can actually ruin your holiday. Here are some mistakes to avoid when booking ski apartments Livigno.

There is no doubt about it, there are absolutely loads of options to choose from when it comes to Ski Apartments Livigno, so we’re going to guide you on how to avoid some common mistakes that people make when booking their accommodation.

1.Do your Research

If you’ve found a ski apartment that looks like just the right choice for you, do some research on the internet and look for some reviews to see what other people have to say about the accommodation. This will give you a good indication of what you can expect. This takes time, and as we said before make sure you don’t wait right until the end before doing this.

2.Don’t Leave it to the Last Minute

One of the biggest mistakes people make is that they leave booking their accommodation to the last minute. What happens here is that you land up having to ‘take what you get’ as chalets in Livigno get booked up way in advance. Leaving it too late could leave you in a crummy, uncomfortable chalet that certainly won’t make for a memorable holiday. Always leave plenty of time to book your accommodation and you’ll get exactly what you want.

3.Don’t Pick on a Whim

You’ve probably travelled before, so you’ll know what you’re actually after. Knowing exactly what you’re looking for will help make that search much easier. As we’ve said book early. This obviously helps give you time to do that research you need to do. Don’t fall for the trap of ‘photo fakeouts’! This is a killer. You might look on a website, see awesome pictures, and there you go job done. Nope, not quite. Remember, photos can be touched up and when you get there you could be walking into something that looks absolutely nothing like you’ve seen.

4.Know your Rates
Make sure you know exactly what you’re being charged for. Sometimes unscrupulous establishments give you a rate, but when it comes to settling the bill at the end of holiday you’re all of a sudden slapped with a massive amount of extras that you had no idea were coming. One of the most trusted hotels that have ski apartments is Charme Hotel Alexander, and they are known for their honesty and great value for money. They’ve also got fantastic ski apartments available that cater to every need.

5.Where do you want to be?

Make sure you know where the ski apartment is situated. Is it suitable for what you want? Do you want to be right in the hub of the activity or do you want an apartment that is slightly further out to give you a bit of peace and quiet. The Charme Hotel Alexander chalets have got various ski apartments in different locations across Livigno, and you can choose what suits you best.

6.Ambience

Think about the type of ambience you’re looking for. If you’re heading to a charming village like Livigno, you’ll probably want a modern ski chalet, but that is nicely decorated comfortable and charming too. Charme Hotel Alexander has 3 different ski chalets, and each one has been decorated in a warm Alpine style to give the same charm that the village has.

7.What do you need from the apartment?

Do you want to do your own cooking? Are you prepared to live in an apartment that you’ll be sharing with other guests? Do you want to be on your own as a group, couple or family? Think about all these things, and you can choose the right ski apartment that suits your needs perfectly.

Follow this advice, and you’ll be heading on a special holiday with the right accommodation to match!

How badly do you need a Holiday?

Let’s face it, we live in an ‘always on’ world, we never switch off from work, we head home and there’s a mountain of stuff to do, the weekends are jam-packed while that tablet or iPad is sitting right next to you all the time, checking up on work. It never ends. We’re not actually stressed out; we’re more than likely burned out.

Did you know that we are taking less vacation days per year? Americans only take 10 out of 14 given; the Japanese take 7 out of 18 and the South Koreans only 7 out of 10.5. That’s a lot of vacation days missing to rejuvenate our souls and when you have one precious week of vacation, you want to make sure it matters.

Livigno Hotel Wellness at the Alexander Charme Hotel might just be the answer for you. Take our quiz and see how badly you really need a rejuvenating holiday to get you firing on all cylinders again.

1.How many days leave have you taken over an annual period?

If its 10 days or less you need some time out to relax, rejuvenate and be kind to yourself. The best type of vacation you can take is somewhere that will invigorate and relax you at the same time. Livigno Hotel Wellness has absolutely everything you need, set in the Italian Alps with amazing views and a spa to pamper you.

2.How many hours do you work per week?

Our bodies aren’t made for the constant pressure of working over 40 hours a week, which is an increasing trend. This kind of pressure that you put on yourself can take its toll on your body, and not in a good way. So you might leave the office after an 8 hour day, but you are always switched on, checking that everything is okay at work, answering emails and phone calls. If you add those hours in, it’s likely to be a whole lot more. We sometimes forget that we need to take care of ourselves. If you’re working a long week, it’s time for a holiday and make sure you throw a spa in there too, just like Livigno Hotel Wellness.

3.What is your mood like?

Are you irritable, moody, maybe even feeling a bit down and you might even be exhausted. If you don’t take a well-deserved break, you can land up with more serious health issues. You definitely need to book that time off, and get yourself on holiday. The Italian Alps will most certainly make sure that you get that much needed rest, relaxation and pampering.

4.Do you take a break during your working day?

You cannot just sit at your computer like a robot each and every day without taking a single break. And by the way surfing the internet doesn’t count as a break. You will burn out, and quickly. You need to get outside and take a breather. Again, if you keep working solidly through the day, that body of yours is going to be crying out for some help and that help is in the form of a holiday, where you are completely switched off, no emails or phone calls allowed, just a relaxing break to clear your mind.




5.Do you work with ‘workaholics’?

Most people work in offices where people are complete and utter workaholics, never taking a break, and seemingly on super drive. If you work in an office with workaholics you’re going to feel compelled to work in the same way too. Warning bells…your body won’t be happy! A break at the Alexander Charme Hotel will refocus your mind and allow you the time and space to work out your priorities, and of course allow for some pampering.

The bottom line is that most people are working like crazy and are not taking care of themselves, which can mean getting sick, being irritable and feeling tired and run down. If any of this seems like you, then you really need a break. The Alexander Charme Hotel is the ideal Wellness hotel Livigno which has an amazing spa to take care of all your needs. The spa has been completely renovated and the amenities include Comfort Zone products, massages, a sauna to relax in, a fully-equipped gym, two Jacuzzis, a luxury sauna and a Turkish bath with an adjoining massage room. It is the ultimate gift you can give yourself or your family.

Why a Hotel with a Spa is perfect for your Wellness

When you’re booking a hotel, have you ever considered a hotel that has spa facilities? Well you definitely should, as it can have a huge impact on your overall well-being.

But why should you book a hotel with a spa? Well, think about it this way – you’ll be on vacation, which allows you to relax and you can benefit from spa treatments every day which will kick-start the rejuvenation process from a hectic life. The Livigno hotel spa is situated in the Italian Alps, and is just 150m from the Teola ski lift. You can get in some skiing in during the day, and then relax in the spa after some healthy exercising. In summer, there are other activities to do, which will give all the fresh air you need, working those muscles and then its relaxation time. Here we’re going to show you why a hotel with a spa, like the Livigno hotel spa is perfect for your overall wellness.



1.The Spa is Right within Reach

You can walk a couple of metres from your hotel room and you’re right there. There’s no need to travel, plus there are amazing amenities on site at the Livigno hotel spa. Think heated swimming pools, saunas, massages and other treatments, Jacuzzi’s, cold water diving well and a Turkish bath. Sounds quite tempting doesn’t it?

2.Spas are not Extravagant

Some people believe that spas are extravagant, cost too much money and are a waste of time. We live in a highly stressed world, where our health tends to be pushed down the list to take care of more pressing things. But our health should be our number one priority and a spa helps you take care of you. Having a spa in your hotel is cost-effective, and you might even get a few specials thrown in when you book.

3.You will De-Stress Quickly

As mentioned earlier, a hotel with a spa is ideal for that much needed vacation, and having a spa right at your fingertips will de-stress you far quicker than a hotel without a spa. You can relax and soothe yourself with massages, saunas, Jacuzzi’s and treatments and more. You can allow yourself to be cut off from the world for a while and your vacation will be made even more special.

4.You can improve your Health

When you’re dealing with a massage therapist, they can give you ideas on how to improve your health and tell you where your body is carrying the most stress. You can then work on this at the spa and when you get home too.

5.Mental Benefits

Believe it or not, but there are amazing mental benefits when you attend a Livigno hotel spa. When you arrive on holiday you’re probably run-down, stressed to the max and need to unwind fast. You could possibly even be on edge worried about work. We know spa treatments will relax you, right at your hotel, but they can also stimulate you mentally and physically giving you a boost in self-confidence and self-esteem. But if you’re stressed out, imagine having to still travel to another place to enjoy the benefits of a spa? The Alexander Charme Hotel has brilliant facilities right on site, which have been newly renovated, so take a look at their website to see what’s on offer.

6.Feel and Look Young

Therapeutic massages can relax you, which of course lead to less stress and facial or other skin care treatments can leave you feeling and looking young. If you have to still make your way from A to B, as opposed to just walking to the spa in your hotel, you’ll add that extra element of stress…not a good idea when you’re in relaxation mode!

7.Sleep Better

A relaxed body and mind leads to peaceful sleep. Head to the spa for a treatment, head to your hotel room and have a good rest that is well deserved!

The Alexander Charme Hotel in Livigno, Italy, has a fantastic spa on site, which has everything you could ever dream of. It’s a four star hotel and their spa has been recently renovated so you’ll know you’re in for a treat. Check out their website to see what’s on offer.

Why not Stay at a Wellness Hotel in Livigno?

It's not at all difficult to find a wellness hotel in Livigno since there are a number of them that have having good wellness or fitness facilities. If you choose, you can book a wellness hotel away from the hustle and bustle of the town. There are a number of those as well, but since distances are rather small in the area, there is not a great deal of difference between being near the town and being in it. If you want to be somewhat removed from the hustle and bustle you'll find in the center of town, there is an excellent wellness hotel located just a stone's throw from Livigno. You'll find this hotel in Teola, a small village just across the river from Livigno, but still in the heart of the resort area. The hotel is the Charme Hotel Alexander, an establishment in which you will definitely experience the feeling of staying in a mountain retreat.

Livigno does experience its share of hustle and bustle, even though it is a rather small town. Duty-free shopping is one reason. Another is that a number of lift lines are within walking distance of the city center. You won't feel completely isolated though. Downtown Livigno is only a short distance away and chair lifts and cable cars are close by in Teola as well..



Charme Hotel Alexander

This attractive, Tyrolean-style hotel looks from the outside as if it had been transported part and parcel from Austria or Bavaria. Its architectural style is not all that uncommon in this part of Italy however, since it lies in what is also known by some as the South Tyrol, a region that was, up to the end of World War I, a part of the Austria-Hungarian empire. You are more likely interested in the facilities available in the interior of the building if wellness is on your mind. The Charme Alexander features an excellent wellness facility as compared to most other hotels in and around Livigno.  A free shuttle service departs every 5 minute to take you to Livigno and/or the cable car lifts in the resort area. Every room features a heated room in which to check your ski gear at the end of the day. The Charme Alexander has  received many excellent reviews, so when you feel it's about time to plan a visit to the Livigno ski resort area it's worth placing high on your list. You won't be disappointed.

Compare before You Decide


It's all right if you want to compare the Charme Hotel Alexander to other wellness hotels in Livigno before you book a room. There aren't all that many that can live up to the claim of being a true wellness hotel, as the health and fitness and spa facilities in most of these hotels is modest at most. You really want to look at the entire package, which of course include the rooms, the meals, other features, and customer satisfaction. You will find what you want in the Charme Alexander as far as satisfying the needs of your body and your mind is concerned. When you're not attending to the health and well-being of your body, you can focus on hitting the slopes, venturing into town for some duty-free shopping, or just enjoying the coziness and comfort of your room.

Other Features of the Charme Alexander

Yes, this is indeed an excellent place to spend your time while skiing in the Livigno resort are, or hiking, trekking, or mountain biking during the summer season. The rooms are well-appointed, the beds are super-comfortable, and the food is excellent. The breakfasts can be summed up in two words – super amazing!

Are You Looking for a Livigno Hotel with Wellness Facilities?

If, in your search for accommodations, you happen to be looking for a Livigno hotel with wellness facilities, you'll find a fairly large number of these hotels to choose from in the ski resort area. There are at least 20 hotels in the area, and possibly more, that feature a wellness facility or center of one type or another. Not every Livigno hotel with a wellness center will have a full set of wellness features; in fact the majority of them do not. Nevertheless you'll find pools, saunas or steam rooms to be fairly common. 

                              

Charme Hotel Alexander

Given there are a number of hotels to choose from, although that number is not large, there is one Livigno hotel with wellness facilities that has a great deal to offer, the Charme Hotel Alexander. In addition to its wellness facilities, this hotel, which is located in Teola, just a few minutes by shuttle from Livigno, has the reputation of being an excellent place to stay during ski season and during the summer season as well.

If you search for the Charme  Alexander on the web you are likely to find it listed as the Charme Hotel Alexander Livigno. That's not a mistake. Distances are small in the Livigno area. If you want to do some duty-free shopping in the town, or take one of the chairlifts or cable cars on the other side of the valley, it's only a short distance away.

Wellness Facilities

The Charme Alexander  is a 4-star hotel ( a 5-star hotel according to some guests who have provided reviews to several of the online hotel booking agencies).  As far as wellness facilities are concerned this hotel features a fully-equipped Techo gym, a spa with two heated indoor pools (one of the pools is for children), and Jacuzzis as well. A luxury sauna is yours to enjoy, and if the warmth of the sauna makes you feel sleepy, in addition to feeling completely relaxed, a cold water shock treatment will bring you back to the real world, which is nevertheless a pleasant one. The Charme  Alexander also has a Turkish bath and a massage room.

Staying in a mountain resort is in itself a wonderful experience, but staying in a mountain resort that has all the features you would normally expect in a wellness facility makes that experience even more wonderful. You can spend the day skiing your heart out or shopping your heart out – Livigno is located in a duty-free zone --  and look forward to rewarding your now somewhat tired body in the heated pool, the steam room, or subjecting it to the pleasures of a good massage.

It should be noted that various therapeutic services are also available in the spa area. Not only will the staff in the Wellness hotel Livigno area welcome your visits, they will do their best to pamper you as well. Even the most hale and hearty individuals will profit from being pampered from time to time.

                                 
 
Aqua Grande Wellness Park

There is also a wellness park in the Livigno resort area. It's called the Aquagranda, and as it has hotel facilities it is worth mentioning here. If the focus of your trip is on health and wellness, it may be worth your while to see what the park has to offer, as it claims to be the largest wellness center of its kind in Europe. If you've come to ski, or do some hiking, trekking or mountain biking during the summer season and perhaps do some shopping and partying on the side, staying in a hotel would be your best bet since it's unlikely you've come all the way to Livigno to spend most of your time on a treadmill or sit in a steam room. In that case, the Charme Hotel Alexander has all the spa and wellness facilities you will need.
