Hotel Monterosa is a 3-star hotel in Alagna Valsesia, in Valsesia, about 200 metres from the Monterosa Ski lifts. It occupies a historic building overlooking the town’s main square, in an alpine setting at the foot of the Monte Rosa massif.
The property is designed for guests visiting the valley to ski in winter or hike in summer: it offers a sauna, a ski pass sales point, bike rental and concierge service, as well as a terrace where guests can relax after their outings. The in-house restaurant serves traditional Valsesia dishes, while the common room provides an informal gathering point for guests.
The rooms, spread between the main building and an annex a few metres away, range from a classic double to independent apartments with a kitchen, also suitable for large families or small groups. All feature a TV and linen included, and many overlook the surrounding mountains. WiFi is free throughout the property, as is private parking, a notable advantage in a mountain town centre that is often busy during ski season. As there is no lift, the hotel is better suited to guests without mobility issues.
Hotel Monterosa’s accommodation includes five room types, from the classic double room to independent apartments designed for families and groups. All accommodations have heated floors, free WiFi and a TV, and many enjoy a direct view of the mountains surrounding Alagna. The Double Room/Twin Room, at 17 sqm, is the most compact and flexible option, with the choice between a double bed or two single beds.
Moving up in size, there is the Quadruple Room at 25 sqm with four single beds and the Studio with Mountain View, which combines single beds and bunk beds to accommodate up to five people in a space with a kitchenette. The largest options are the One-Bedroom Apartment in the separate building, with an independent entrance and a small kitchen, and the large 50 sqm Apartment with two bedrooms, a full kitchen and a bathtub, designed for large families or long stays in the mountains.
The most compact room in the property, on the first floor of the main building, with tiled floors and central heating. The bed configuration is flexible: double bed or two single beds, to be specified at the time of booking. Ideal for two people looking for an essential, no-frills option.

Hotel Monterosa is located in the heart of Alagna Valsesia, directly on the town’s main square, about 200 metres from the Monterosa Ski lifts. The village, at 1191 metres above sea level at the foot of the Piedmont side of Monte Rosa, retains typical Walser architecture with wood and stone houses, and is one of the historic gateways to Europe’s largest ski area.
A few steps from the property, within 50 metres, there are several places to eat, including La Stube and Caffe delle Guide, both about 30 metres away, and La Miacceria a little further on. For those travelling by car, Milan Malpensa Airport is about 64 km away, also reachable via a paid shuttle organised by the property; the nearest railway station useful for high-altitude connections is Gornergrat, about 18 km away, on the Swiss side of the massif.
Alagna is the gateway to the Monterosa Ski area, which in winter connects Alagna to Gressoney and Champoluc with over 180 km of slopes, while in summer the same lifts open up to hikers and mountain bikers exploring trails such as those to Rifugio Pastore or Cima Carnera, which at 2741 metres is just 2.6 km away in a straight line from the hotel. The village is also a starting point for trekking around Monte Rosa and for climbing enthusiasts, with cliffs and via ferratas nearby. In summer, guided walks to the historic Walser villages are organised, while in winter ski mountaineering finds ideal terrain on the slopes surrounding Alagna.
