If you find yourself browsing vacation lodgings in Italy's Campitello di Fassa region on Google, you might notice one hotel that's attracted a conspicuous uptick in five star ratings. This is the Hotel Stella Montis, and while I'm sure its accommodations are lovely, it owes its recent influx of praise to the other Stella Montis—the popular Arc Raiders map that's driving players to flood the Italian hotel with reviews celebrating its lively (if occasionally hostile) guests, lootable blueprints, and proactive robotic security (via Arc Raiders Alerts on X).
A reviewer by the name of Bad Wolf kicked off the bit about a month ago, saying that while "everything is great" about the hotel, "the only issue is that players sometimes spawn just 10 meters away from me." In the weeks since, all but one review—left by guests who enjoyed a "ski-related stay"—have been Arc Raiders references, ranging from the simple "Hey, Raider! Don't shoot!" to warnings that other guests be wary of hostile Arcs if they're passing through ventilation shafts.
