unique’ is possibly an over-used word in the english language but it would be impossible to describe the hotel california without using it! the owners, guido and marina, have built a hotel based on their love of music and guests should understand that it plays a big part in the day to day running of their establishment. specifically mentioned in a number guide books and in recent sunday telegraph and observer articles, the california has certainly caught the imagination of ski journalists! each of the twelve bedrooms is designed around a different singer or band – john denver, the doors, janis joplin to name but a few. the elvis presley room for instance has a carved wooden bed-head in the shape of a cadillac with indicators as bed-side lights! all of the furnishings are handmade and are of excellent quality. many of the rooms have good views up or down the valley.
