Hôtel Christiania

I have visited Christiania in January 2024 and spent 6 nights with my daughter in this property. As I denoted in the title of review, I am very satisfied with politeness of the staff and their motivation to help their visitors. However, being a 5-star hotel, I would expect a mini-bar in my room, more variety of food in room service (at least very basic hamburgers, pastas). The breakfast buffet is classic for a French hotel, it is more than enough for me, but still it may be short of expectations of other visitors. My main recommendation for everybody would be not to book a Category D room. I was offered Room 422, which was basically a graveyard. I did not see other Category D rooms, but if they are same design and size, you should stay away from them. The management let me change my room very easily as there were some vacancies. Otherwise, my stay would be definitely disastrous. I should also mention and appreciate that, for the last day of my stay (as I have extended my holiday for one day), they let me stay in Jr Suite for Category D price. So if you want to compare this property with others in Val in terms of pricing, everybody should consider at least Category C room rates. Lastly, dont consider the hotel as ski-in, ski-out. You have to walk 100 meters from the hotel to slopes. Do I stay in Christiania again? I cant say "no", but should say that it remained short of my expectations.

Wonderful stay at Christiana. Second time we have returned. Delicious breakfasts and dinner with half board. Our kids loved the play room before/after/during dinner. Special note to the wonderful reception staff in particular Stevie who was incredibly kind and helpful after one of our group sustained an injury. Cannot fault their team. Yes the decor is dated but the team are wonderful.

Great hotel and service. First time someone from hotel staff parked my car safely and I didn’t have to worry about it. Comfortable room and good french breakfast. All you need for skiing weekend is available in the hotel. I didn’t try the wellness but it looked alright.
