Arosa, Switzerland
Resort life
Off the slopes you will find a limited selection of facilities, but enough to get by with. Add your own recommendationNightlife
Eating out and night time action is not particulrly exciting, but there are a number of places that range from the reasonably expenseive to the ridiculous.
The Sitting Bull is on the main street just round the corner from the train station is a decent bar to spend a good few hours, and there is a small umbrella bar behind the station which closes at 8pm.
If its cocktails and posing you're after then head to the Eden Hotel but make sure you bring your wallet (or someone else's). Downstairs you'll find the pool & sauna bar that wouldn't look out of place at the Playboy mansion.
Accomodation
Accommodation is well stationed for the lifts and comes in the standard grade swiss hotel format. Warm, cosy, charming and costly.Youthpalace Davos
