Bottom Line
Hotel Bellevue attracts travelers looking for a historic, mountain-style hotel. The hotel's collection of historic artifacts makes it feel a bit like a museum, but it also manages to be both romantic and family-friendly (even offering a kids' room with activities to occupy the little ones). Highlights include a charming spa and an indoor pool, as well as gorgeous mountain views of the Alps from nearly every vantage point. It's not the kind of place those with a long agenda of sightseeing come to spend much time. Instead, this hotel -- in a quiet mountain village -- is primed for relaxation and getting in touch with nature, whether it be skiing in the winter or hiking the mountains in the warmer months.

Scene
Traditional Alps hotel from the outside, but totally unique on the inside
It doesn't look much different than a typical Alps hotel from the outside, but step inside and the Bellevue's uniqueness shines through. Handed down through four generations of the same family, the Hotel Bellevue stays true to its historic roots as an elegant mountain residence. In many ways, the hotel is like a museum, with period furniture, fireplaces, four-poster beds, an antique clock, and paintings by 19th-century artists. A sense of tradition permeates the entire property, with a genuine effort made to stay true to the Cogne Valley, even while offering more modern services. For example, a 15th-century statue of the town's patron saint sits in an alcove above a staircase landing, as though standing watch over those little visitors heading to the adjacent children's play area strewn with a mix of contemporary and old-school toys.
Location
In the center of Cogne, in front of the famous Meadows Ursus and adjacent to the Gran Paradiso National Park
Its location is what sets the Hotel Bellevue apart from others. While today's law doesn't allow new buildings to be constructed so close to the Gran Paradiso National Park (Italy's oldest national park) and the Meadows Ursus, the fact that Hotel Bellevue has been in the same family for four generations gives it exemption and provides guests the perfect place for exploring these two gems of the Aosta Valley. The hotel is in the center of Cogne, where you can find shops, restaurants, and bars. Still, the hotel gives visitors the opportunity to enjoy the natural surroundings, which give this area a far different feel than the region's largest city, Turin, about two hours away.
Rooms
Rooms are each decorated differently, but all feature lovely antique furnishings
There's nothing cookie-cutter about the accommodations at the Hotel Bellevue; in fact, a traveler would be hard-pressed to find any similarities between the individual rooms. The one thing they have in common is the decor of an elegant mountain residence, complete with traditional Valle d'Aosta-style antique furnishings and wooden or stone floors. Rooms are either in the central wing or the newer Le Foyer wing, but all are connected to the central building. A variety of room types are offered, ranging from the deluxe double to the junior suites. Some rooms have fireplaces, terraces, or both. Others have four-poster beds and whirlpool baths.
Features
Standout features include a homey spa with two pools and a restaurant that uses produce picked directly from the hotel garden.
Though the Bellevue has an enviable location near numerous outdoor mountain activities in the Alps, the hotel spa also draws a number of guests. It includes actual relaxation spaces, plus two pools, four saunas, steam rooms, a salt grotto, a cold room, sensory showers, and a small gym. Another highlight is the restaurant, which offers a terrace with stunning mountain views and a tasty menu that incorporates produce picked from the hotel garden.
