Jolly Resort & Spa — Hotel in Comunità montana della valle Camonica

After two weeks in Tuscany and Italian seaside, we finished our holiday with a week in Italian Alps. We were so lucky to choose Jolly Resort out of all possible solutions. It is located at the edge of Bonte di Legno, just at the foot of the mountain and very close to the cable car taking you to up in the hill, and to the ski slopes. Ponte di Legno is a great point for exploring the surrounding, and we visited a lot of smaller villages, mountain peaks, Presena glacier, during our stay.The apartment was very spaciuos, modern, with large kitchen, comfortable bathroom.

Only use it to 'top up' on your stock.||There are numerous restaurants in the town, but many were closed over lunch. Not sure if they open for dinner. Larger hotels had bars / pubs and restaurants that were open.||This is a ski resort that has expanded to mountain biking and hiking trails out of ski season. Streets are narrow, and parking in season will be a nightmare.||Took a quick cable car ride before they closed. Heavenly quiet and...

Located in the beautifull village of Ponte di Legno, Jolly Resort proved a nice base for exploring the area and the quite distant Lakes.||An impressive building, friendly but limited English speaking staff efficiently booked us in.||Our apartment was quite small but adequate for our needs. The resort and area information contained therein was very limited amounting to a page or 2 of contact numbers and the recommendation not to use the lifts at night - however this meant using the stairs for which the lights were controlled by motion activated switches and the lights lasted about 5 seconds leaving you plunged into darkness on the stairs.||The restaurant, not run by the hotel itself, was managed by some very friendly people and the food...
