“Excellent”
Staff were great. They drove to Altitude Nozowa to collect us as we were a group. At night they would drive you to your restaurant and pick us up when finished. Excellent service.

“We really enjoyed our 3 week stay at Altitude Madarao. The staff, Justin, Jacob and Josie did a fantastic job of running”
The property has a lovely chalet feel about it. Easy 1 min walk up the street to ski down to the lifts. We had the triple room for two of us and it was spacious and quiet. The staff where amazing, nothing was a problem and they were extremely helpful with any questions.

“Close to mountain”
Nice big room, comfy beds, good breakfast, super close to the slopes. The only negative was there was a smell in the bathroom that smelt like cat urine. Not sure if it was coming up the pipes

“Great stay, great location and friendly staff.”
Very welcoming and helpful staff. Nice location and guests were very friendly all'round. I was travelling solo with my son so it was great there were other guests similar age to him to connect with.

“The best !!!”
I absolutely loved this lodge. The staff were amazing and couldn’t have been more patient, friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much for them. It had a lovely cozy relaxing dining/lounge area that we spent a lot of evenings chatting and playing cards. It was so easy to ski down the slope to the chair lifts. We had an amazing time at this lodge and would highly recommend it, we hope to come again.

Staff were awesome, They were very accommodating with any request and very friendly and fun to engage with. Not so good at card games :). The common area was comfortable and a great place to hangout when not on the slops.

“Super cute mountain lodge in a great location for the slopes for a few days”
Location of ski lodge, two minute walk and you can ski down to the lifts and we had loads of snow at Christmas. Cute lodge, lovely shared space, better than photos, cosy and loved the breakfast and honesty bar, teas coffees etc in the shared lounge with the fire etc - it was all very lovely and a great experience Our room was great, comfortable and we had a fab stay overall Shuttles from bus station and to restaurants etc super helpful and staff were great at being accommodating - we were early in the season so not loads of restaurants open etc. staff were all English speakers which was helpful for us and they met our request of a specific room which was really kind. Can’t thank individual staff as they didn't introduce themselves by name but they were all nice! Helped sort out hire for ski clothing and equipment at a local shop which was great Lovely warm boot room area for drying things

“Wonderful place to stay, with amazing staff.”
We loved everything about Altitude Madarao. The location with its easy access to the slopes, the neat and tidy rooms and communal areas, the breakfasts, the views, everything!! But the greatest thing about Altitude Madarao was the staff. All of the staff went above expectations and were only too happy to help with any question or request that we had. Absolutely 11/10 from the staff, and we’ll be back to stay again because the staff made it such an awesome stay.
