Escape to Paradise: Hotel Beau Sejour - A Review (The Messy, Honest Truth)
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because I'm about to spill the beans (and maybe some limoncello?) on the Hotel Beau Sejour, that "Hidden Gem" in Italy. You've seen the glossy brochures, heard the whispers of paradise…and now you're about to get the unfiltered, possibly slightly rambling, truth. Prepare yourselves, because this isn't your grandma's hotel review!
First Impressions: Arriving in Style (or, "Did I Pack Enough Pasta?")
Okay, let's be honest, the journey to Beau Sejour is half the adventure. Finding it, tucked away in…well, wherever this gem is (seriously, Google Maps was my best friend), felt like a treasure hunt. Thankfully, the airport transfer was seamless! And the guys at valet parking? Absolute saints. After a flight and a whirlwind of luggage, that was a huge relief.
Accessibility: A Mixed Bag (But Still Mostly Good!)
Okay, here’s where I gotta be real. Accessibility is…complex. The brochure promises facilities for disabled guests, and to be fair, the elevator was a lifesaver. But navigating some of the more charming, winding passageways was definitely a workout. I wouldn't say it's 100% perfect, but they're clearly trying. The facilities for disabled guests are there, and the staff were generally very accommodating.
Rooms: My Tiny, Beautiful Fortress
My room? Oh. My. God. Okay, so it wasn't a palace, but it was perfect. The air conditioning was a blessing, especially after a day of exploring. Seriously, I'm a walking furnace, and I needed that. The blackout curtains were a game-changer for sleeping in (finally!), and the coffee/tea maker? Crucial for my survival each morning. And the little touches! Bathrobes were fluffy, the slippers were ridiculously comfy, and the complimentary tea was a godsend.
Bonus points: The free Wi-Fi actually worked in my room! (A miracle, I’m telling you!) And a big shoutout to the daily housekeeping – my room always looked immaculate!
Minor grumbles: The socket near the bed was a bit awkwardly placed, which is just a minor thing.
Finding My Zen: Relaxing & Things to Do
Okay, let's get to the juicy stuff – relaxation! They've got a swimming pool with a view that legitimately made me gasp. Seriously, I spent a whole afternoon floating there, pretending I was in a Bond film. Pure bliss. The sauna and steamroom were amazing, but I have to admit, I didn't brave the Body scrub (a little too…intimate for me). The vibe is definitely about unwinding.
That Pool: Seriously, it's the star! Just being there was enough to de-stress. And the poolside bar…well, let's just say I may have sampled a few cocktails.
Fitness Centre: Look, I intended to use the fitness center, I really did. But the Italian food…and the pool… well, the elliptical machine got a little lonely.
The Food: An Italian Love Story (and Possibly a Diet Nightmare)
Oh. My. Goodness. The food. Let's start there. Forget everything you think you know about diets. Breakfast [buffet] was a delightful explosion of pastries, fresh fruit, and the best damn coffee I've ever tasted. I'm talking serious coffee. Forget the instant stuff, you had coffee/tea in restaurant, Asian breakfast, Western breakfast, the works!
The Restaurant Scene: Dining options are varied. With a A la carte in the main restaurant, and Asian cuisine (a surprise, but a good one! - just try the dumplings!), salad, soup, and a decent vegetarian restaurant to boot. And I loved the Happy hour, an after-work drink really helped relax me.
Room service [24-hour]: Because sometimes, you just need pasta in your pajamas at 2 AM!
Cleanliness and Safety: They're taking things seriously! Staff trained in safety protocol, Sanitized kitchen and tableware items. You could tell, even with the Physical distancing of at least 1 meter .
Services & Conveniences: The Little Things That Make a Difference
This hotel is bursting with little extras that make your stay feel special. Concierge was super helpful. The daily housekeeping was top-notch, and the dry cleaning service was a lifesaver. The convenience store was a great place to stock up on snacks (because, Italian snacks!), and having the cash withdrawal service was convenient.
- Minor hiccups: I felt like the internet could sometimes be a bit spotty, but nothing truly deal-breaking.
For the Kids: Family Friendly?
I didn't bring any kids with me, but this place seems pretty good for them. There is a babysitting service and I think I saw some Kids facilities and I thought they looked quite ok.
Safety First! (That's Always a Plus)
I felt safe the whole time. They’ve got the essentials covered: CCTV in common areas, Security [24-hour], and Fire extinguisher (just in case my pasta-induced pyrotechnics went wrong).
My Overall Verdict: Should You Go?
Absolutely. Despite a few minor imperfections, the Hotel Beau Sejour is a gem. Yes, it might not be perfectly accessible, and yes, I definitely overindulged in the pasta. But the stunning views, the relaxing atmosphere, the incredibly friendly staff, and the sheer beauty of the location more than make up for any small flaws. It's a place where you can truly escape and recharge – and maybe even sample some of the best food in Italy.

Escape to Paradise: B&B Raggio Di Sole, Trevignano's Hidden Gem
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we’re about to embark on a journey… or, well, I am, and you're along for the messy ride. This is supposed to be my itinerary for Hotel Beau Séjour, Pre-Saint-Didier, Italy, but honestly? Knowing me, it'll probably look more like a Jackson Pollock painting than a neat little schedule. Here we go…
Day 1: Arrival & Mild Panic (and Pizza Dreams)
- 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM: Arrive at Turin Airport (TRN). Ugh. The flight was delayed, naturally. Did someone say "travel insurance" because I might need a second helping of that after this. Finding the transfer to the hotel via shuttle. Let’s hope I don’t butcher the Italian phrases. Pray for me, honestly. I’m terrible.
- 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM: Check-in, Hotel Beau Séjour. Hopefully, the view is as breathtaking as the website photos promise, because I'm going to be needing that. I am also hoping, praying, and begging the hotel gods for a room with good WiFi. My social media addiction can't be abandoned.
- 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM: Unpack (ugh, a necessary evil). Assess the damage from the flight (mostly just my sanity). Stare at the mountains (which I’m already slightly in love with. They're majestic).
- 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Explore Pre-Saint-Didier. Find a decent gelato place (essential). Maybe try to understand some Italian. My plan is to start with "Buongiorno" and end with… probably just a flustered mumble.
- 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM: The Pizza Quest. This feels very important. I've already done some "research”, which mainly involved scrolling through Instagram and drooling. Must find the perfect pizza. This is not negotiable. If I don’t find a decent pizza, this whole trip will be ruined. Maybe I should have packed my own.
- 8:00 PM - 9:00 PM: Collapsing into a food coma, hopefully in my hotel room. Mental note: pack earplugs. And maybe a therapist.
Day 2: Thermal Baths & Existential Dread (But Mostly Baths)
- 9:00 AM: Wake up… or attempt to. Jet lag is already kicking in. Coffee is a necessity. Strong coffee.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: Thermes de Pré-Saint-Didier. This is it! The thermal baths! I've seen pictures, and they look like pure, unadulterated bliss. I'm envisioning myself surrounded by steam, the snow-capped mountains in the background, and… well, me, finally relaxed. Famous last words. I am very excited for this, really.
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch. Hopefully, something light, because I'll probably be so blissfully relaxed, I’ll forget I’m supposed to eat.
- 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM: More Thermal Baths. Soak up the magic. Actually TRY to be present and mindful. Or, you know, just stare at the mountains and question all my life choices. Whichever comes first. I might also try to get in touch with the divine, just in case. Not that I have a chance, but one can still hope…
- 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Wander around town. Maybe find a cute little shop selling… something I don't need but absolutely must have.
- 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Dinner at a Trattoria. More Italian. Let's see what happens.
- 8:00 PM: Bed. Possibly a slight existential breakdown. But hey, at least I’ll be clean and relaxed!
Day 3: Mountains & Mud (and Potential Disaster)
- 9:00 AM: Okay, another try at getting out of bed. This is harder than it looks.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: Hiking! I've booked a hike up the mountain. Me! Hiking! This could be a disaster. I'm not exactly known for my athleticism. But hey, the views are supposed to be amazing. I'm half expecting a bear to jump out and chase me down the mountain. I've packed a bottle of water, and a lot of snacks, just in case…
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch. Hopefully, I won’t be too traumatized by the hike to eat. Also, I might have overpacked with the snacks.
- 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM: Return to the hotel.
- 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Massive Fail Alert. Let’s be realistic. I am extremely clumsy. I fully expect to lose my balance at any moment and faceplant into a pile of mud. Should I bring extra clothes, just in case? Probably.
- 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Relax and pray.
- 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Dinner & drinks. Maybe a celebratory cocktail.
- 8:00 PM - End. More reflection. Journaling. Existential dread. The usual.
Day 4: The Valley, The Farewell & A Tear (Maybe)
- 9:00 AM: The final attempt.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: Explore the Aosta Valley. Visit a local village. The entire place is gorgeous. Try to soak up the atmosphere as much as possible.
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch.
- 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM: Souvenir shopping (because obviously). And maybe a final gelato.
- 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Pack. Curse myself for not packing lighter. Wonder why I thought I needed that many shoes.
- 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Farewell dinner. Try not to cry. This is where things get emotional. Think of all the fun and the sadness.
- 8:00 PM -…: Try to remember everything.
- The day of return: Farewell to the hotel and the Aosta Valley. Transport to Turin Airport (TRN) and departure flight. Goodbye Italy, goodbye mountains, goodbye everything. Until next time… (hopefully!).
Food Notes:
- Pizza: Obsessively search for the perfect pizza.
- Gelato: Eat as much gelato as humanly possible.
- Pasta: Eat a lot of pasta.
- Coffee: Drink all the coffee.
- Wine: Self-explanatory.
Important Considerations:
- Language Barrier: I'm a terrible speaker. Pray for me.
- Clumsiness Factor: A major concern.
- Emotional Rollercoaster: Guaranteed. Buckle up.
- Procrastination: I'm probably going to be late all the time.
- The Unexpected: Expect the unexpected.
Alright, that's the plan! Wish me luck. And if you see a slightly disheveled, possibly mud-covered person wandering around, that's probably me. Don't judge. And definitely offer me a pizza.

Okay, spill the beans. Is Hotel Beau Sejour *really* a hidden gem? Or just a fancy brochure lie?
What's the vibe? Is it all stuffy opera singers and monocles?
Tell me about those VIEWS! Are they as breathtaking as the photos suggest? Because, let's face it, travel photography is often a lie.
The food! What's the deal with the food? I'm Italian – I have high expectations!
Are there any downsides? Because, you know, nothing is perfect. And I'm a cynic.
What are the rooms like? Are they luxurious or just… old?
Is it good for kids? Like, should I bring the little monsters?
What's the best way to get there? I'm terrified of driving.
