We went to Valbella in the Lenzerheide region for a few days with family, staying at the Hotel Seehof. The resort is great, with a regular free bus taking you around the different lift locations meaning you can access all parts of the mountain quickly from the bottom. The pistes were well maintained, if a bit patchy in some places, but far from unskiable. In fact, given the warm temperatures (19C one day!) the snow was in great condition. Beginners areas were great for my daughter and her first time on snow and her instructor was really friendly and patient. Plenty of gentle runs for my wife and some older family members too who were able to comfortably ski a large section of runs, despite it being several years since last skiing. The lifts up the mountain were quick and quiet, meaning it was possible to ski a long way in a day. Apres was quite quiet with it mainly being focussed around the hotels. Definitely more family focussed than one for the party animals! Overall it was a great resort to visit with a good selection of well maintained pistes, easy access and quick lifts, very few crowds and writhing easy driving distance from Zurich. The only downside was the price, but thats always a challenge with Switzerland anyway. I would definitely visit again, but will need to save up a bit more.

In my opinion, this is the best ski resort in Switzerland. Everything is perfect. If you dont mind blowing money stay at Arosa, but if you wanna save go to Lenzerheide , as you can just get a bus or gondola over.

The resort is great, there are many bars and restaurants on the mountain but less places for apres ski. This could be easily fixed if those bars were turned into apres bars at times , with speakers and a dj. The groomed slopes are amazing and there a good few terrain parks for beginners and intermediates and advanced. Especially in arosa there is large wide areas for off piste skiing and has huge potential for fun on powder days. The area is expensive due to it being in Switzerland however on the mountain the prices for beer and chips at the right places arent too bad. (5.50-8 CHF for a large beer) there are many lifts most of which are modern and efficient. Most of the resort workers speak English too, however some of the Swiss residents are not the most friendly to tourists. I am doing a season here and overall its an amazing place to ski and I would recommend it, even though its on the more expensive side of the resorts.

Worked there for 3 years and love it to pieces! It is small and fun with a good nightlife and ski hill. Would live there if I could
