A new history s i g n e d V a l é r i e D e C o r t e
To captivate a new leisure and business clientele, this luxurious 3-star hotel has outfitted itself with various services, like a very fine library offering novels in several
languages, wireless broadband Internet, wellness corner where guests can enjoy exclusive massages, fitness trail and bicycles at your disposal. All of these
services have therefore accompanied the complete renovation of the 46 rooms and suites. The original façade, typical of the 1960s, was meticulously conserved. For
Valérie De Corte, the hotel’s family tradition is a point of honour, and she takes particular care to ensure that the welcome her guests enjoy is as warm as it
!
Valérie De Corte has been Director and
Owner of the Hotel Sirio Ivrea for two
years. She and her sister Sabine De Corte-Garda wanted to enhance the value of the hotel within the region and attract an international clientele while at the same
time maintaining an authentic and convivial welcome.
A quality of service that is beyond
reproach and a multilingual personnel defy stereotypical notions of the Italian hospitality industry.
For Valérie De Corte, with her training most notably at the Ecole Hôtelière of
Lausanne and Cornell University, it is a
point of honour to surround herself with
collaborators who share her level of
passion for the hotel industry and the
world of fine dining. In less than two years
the establishment has recaptured and
even surpassed its glorious reputation.
