Valsana Hotel Arosa - Small Luxury Hotel

From the moment we arrived at this stunning hotel in Arosa, we were enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere. Nestled amidst the breathtaking Swiss Alps, the location offers unparalleled views and a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. Their hospitality was evident in every interaction, from the welcoming check-in to the thoughtful recommendations for local activities. Our room was beautifully appointed, combining modern comforts with traditional Swiss charm. The plush bedding ensured a restful night's sleep, and waking up to the panoramic mountain views was simply magical. Dining at the hotel was a highlight of our stay. The on-site restaurant offered a delectable menu that showcased local ingredients, and each meal was a culinary delight. The breakfast buffet was particularly impressive, featuring a wide array of fresh pastries, cheeses, and fruits to start the day off right. For those looking for relaxation, the hotel’s wellness center was a sanctuary. After a day of skiing or hiking, indulging in the spa treatments and unwinding in the sauna was the perfect way to recharge. Arosa itself is a charming village with plenty of outdoor activities year-round, and the hotel’s proximity to hiking trails and ski slopes made it an ideal base for our adventures. Overall, our experience at this hotel was nothing short of extraordinary. It’s a place where luxury meets nature, and we can’t wait to return to create more unforgettable memories. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the beauty and tranquility of Arosa!

The location in Arosa is good - across the lake from the Weisshorn tram. The rooms are new and comfortable, and of good size. - including the balcony The bedding was especially good. The rooms overlooking the lake are better; the views can be a bit limited otherwise. The spa is fairly nice, with an indoor pool, two saunas, a relaxation room, and a yoga room. Though there is an outdoor lounge area, there is not an outdoor pool, nor are there hot pools. The breakfast was the worst we had in Switzerland, and the dinner was not much better. After the first day we grabbed breakfast items from the coop grocery store attached to the hotel (which is very convenient for other needs as well). Instead of eating dinner at their restaurant Twist, order the fondue brought to your balcony - that was very good and worked great with a group. The food is far below the standards of the other Tschuggen group hotel, the Grand Tschuggen, which is located further up the mountain. We ended up eating there instead of Twist (an easy free bus ride). For skiing, definitely pick the Grand Tschuggen - it is worth the extra cost.

Pro - super attentive service fast and helpful with tips like the local bus or a nice walk - Very roomy rooms with shower & bath with big sun terrace - Nice Spa and sauna facilities good to relax after a hiking or skiing - Location: Next door is a supermarket & train station is 5 mins walk away. Small Cons - entrance of the lobby is on the first floor and during the night you have to enter in the back of the building this is a bit confusing. - Quite a lot of light switches, took us a day to learn
