Summer report number 1

A warm welcome from the team at the Christiania for summer 2012.

It has been a great first week for us so far especially with the weather brightening up.This week we are holding our first hog roast in the hotel’s garden and are very excited. The weather is looking good and we hope this continues.

The Christiania summer team 2012.

The end of the week brings us to the Passportes du Soleil- an 80km bike marathon which trails all over the Porte du Soleil. Good luck to all our guests who are taking part in that (particularly those attempting it on the downhill bikes!).
