Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi to everyone.
I'm hoping you can help me with the following:
I'm looking to take my wife away in January for a couple of nights. We are not looking to ski, but want to stay somewhere in Europe with guaranteed snow, good apres ski bars/restaurants etc, ideally luxury hotel, ideally easy to get to (close to airport or easy to transfer to). Basically want everything that you look for but without the skiing.
I've never been skiing before so know nothing about which resorts are good/bad. Obviously not bothered about ski slopes/lift facilities etc.
Can anyone give me any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Marcus

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Hi Elizabeth
Thanks for replying. I guess we're looking for snow in the resort really. Snowball fights, snow anglels, romance, log fires etc etc. She loves the idea of snow, but the not the skiing part!!

marcusfra, Go the the Trofana Royale in Ischgl.....went there on my honeymoon - I think you will find it ticks all the boxes for luxury. An hour from Innsbruck (less in the chauffer driven Merc... )

marcusfra, you may be struggling to find anywhere that guarantees snow in the resort. It all depends on the weather condtions at the time.
It's a slightly longer transfer, but Wengen in Switzerland could be a good choice. There is spectacular scenery and even if there is little or no snow in the resort, you can get the train up the mountain. If it's your thing, there is also a number of toboggan runs and winter walking trails.

You'll need to Register first of course.

marcusfra, Would have be Wengen or Gstaad for me for the non-skier .... but Wengen would win as the cog-train takes you to the 'Top of the World' and several places in between.
