 Poster: A snowHead

...is another exclusive snowHeads offer, and there's no dress code. Just throw away your platinum credit card and any other financial trifles and step inside...
...Badrutt's Palace, St Moritz
Please don't tip the doorman. Your wallet valet will take care of this, once he's parked the Gulfstream. This is a bespoke virtual reality ski holiday for Alpine fantasists*
Other hotel nominations worthy of snowHeads' very discriminating membership are invited. Please write to our international hotel inspection team below, with two references from Swiss banks. Thank you.

may I suggest the
The The Palace Hotel in Gstaad as an alternative ?
The The Grand Hotel Victoria Jungfrau in Interlaken looks great but a friends daughter did her work experience ? here and I happen to know, she spent her week there hand stitching torn sheets and pillowcases

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

Maybe not a hotel, but perhaps worthy of a mention in this exhalted company. The Eugenia in Klosters is a cool £37.5k for the week commencing Boxing Day. Check out that fireplace in the bathroom, darlings.

I've not stayed in an exclusive Austrian ski hotel before, but am considering it for my next holiday.
What exercises should I give my credit card beforehand to prepare it? Are there any pre-season courses I can do at my local 5* hotel to boost my experience and confidence before I get to the resort? e.g. how to get a good edge on my wages, tips for dealing with steep mini bar prices, what social risks should I be aware of if I want to step off piste into the neighbouring bar, etc....
