Hotel Funiva is a family owned hotel located in the cycling mecca of Bormio in the Italian Alps which is a great base to ride the epic Stelvio, Gavia and Mortirolo Passes, all of which are iconic climbs that feature regularly in the Giro d’Italia. In fact next year’s Stage 18 of the Giro will feature an ascent up the Stelvio Pass as well as an uphill finish at Lake Cancano which will be featured for the first time. Anyone who has stayed at Hotel Funivia would have had the opportunity to ride this beautiful climb affectionately known as ‘The Princess’.

As a hotel operated by cyclists and dedicated to serving cyclists, at Hotel Funivia you will have the opportunity to ride not only the iconic climbs but also discover the beauty of this alpine region and all the secrets it has to offer. Cycling packages at Hotel Funiva feature all the amenities a cyclist needs to enjoy the perfect cycling holiday; daily group rides from the hotel with van support, gourmet meals, secure bike storage and cycling kit washing service. Not to mention the Stelvio Experience Bicycle Café dedicated to ‘the rules’.

The beautiful town of Bormio has everything to cater for cyclists and non-cyclists alike. So if you are thinking about a cycling holiday in Italy say G’day to Daniele, Elisa and the Hotel Funivia Team.
