Grand Hotel Billia is a historic luxury hotel located in the Aosta Valley in Italy.

History[edit]

The building was built in 1908 on behalf of Italian entrepreneur Stefano Billia, who already managed the stagecoach service between Ivrea and Saint Vincent. At that time, Saint-Vincent was an emerging resort destination thanks to the renowned thermal waters of the Fons salutis. At its opening, the hotel had 138 rooms with a total of 200 beds.[1]

After World War II, the building housed the Casino de la Vallée [it], which was inaugurated in its rooms on March 29, 1947.[1]

Description[edit]

The building, located in the town of Saint Vincent, features ornate façades.
