Saas Fee

With such a view on the peaks that rise 4,000 metres high, Hotel Hohnegg (it takes its name from a place reputed to be the sunniest spot in the village) could be excused from making you forget that you had really come for the winter sports. In fact everything is at hand to turn you into a stay-at-home: eight bedrooms in the “Hansel & Gretel” style, a “bio” restaurant where the most astonishing as well as the most classical dishes are served (they have already found their way into many good food guidebooks) and host of activities. Apart from the saunas and the solariums, you can have massages, practice the “Nordic walk”, and even, if you insist, go on a diet! No austerity though in this charming hotel where guests are regaled with stories, a glass of wine in hand. Yet another reason to spend a night in the land of the fairies.
