Hôtel Christiania

It is fair to say that the hotel is a little tired in places and when we first checked into our room we were a little disappointed as the room was a little knocked around. However, the sheer excellence of the staff and their warmth and friendliness more than made up for it and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. By way of example of how amazing they are - on day one I had the most horrific toothache and, although it was a Sunday, the amazing Concierge somehow arranged an emergency dental appointment. Not only that, he would go out of his way to ask how it was. Next, as you returned to the hotel after a hard days skiing, the other Concierge would magically appear out of nowhere and carry your skis back to the locker and greet you with your slippers - nothing was ever too much trouble for any of them. When I arrived at the station to catch the train home I discovered I had left my in the restaurant ( they had opened it 30 minutes for our early departure!!) and without a hesitation the amazing Concierge told me how he would organise a courier - which he did!! Truly amazing. The breakfast was simply superb and catered for all tastes. We think it is one of our favourite all time hotels, despite the reservations discussed above. The staff really did make it an incredible experience.

The room needed a slight refresh. The bathroom was excellent - with excellent shower. The cleanliness was first class but the wardrobes looked a little knocked around and the chairs did look dated.
