Its been snowing in Les Gets

As our staff arrive at the Hotel for the winter season there has been a large fall of snow.

It's snowing in Les Gets

As the images below show its started to snow in Les Gets. This should give a good base for the season.

March powder

It's still possible to have a powder day in March as this picture which was taken by the assistant manager at the Hotel Christiania in Les Gets shows.

Fresh snow means fresh bookings

The UK based staff at the Hotel Christiania UK booking office did not need to check the webcams to know that it had been snowing in Les Gets on Sunday afternoon and Monday morning as the phones were ringing all day yesterday.

We guess that a lot of people use the Webcam page on our website and after yesterday fall of snow a lot of the rooms for Easter are now already booked. If your thinking of a family ski trip at Easter book now before it's too late.

Fresh Snow

After a week of warm temperatures the weekend guests at the Hotel Christiania in Les Gets were treated to a fresh fall of snow on Sunday afternoon.

There has been 26cm of fresh snow and things are looking great all over the Portes du Soleil again.

The effect of this snow can be measured in the UK booking office where the phone has been busy all morning with people booking up for their late March and early April ski trips.

Snow levels in Les Gets

if you have not been to Les Gets this winter this video by the manager of the Hotel Christiania shows the level of snow on the roofs in Ardent.

Filmed from the Driver's seat - it demonstrates the massive depth of snow. Some chalets are dwarfed by the snow at the side of the road!

Snow and Icicles on the hotel Christiania roof

With the continued cold conditions in Les Gets (it's currently -15 again this morning) we keep having to knock the icicles off the roof as the guests sometime leave the windows open in their rooms at the Hotel Christiania when they are having a shower.

The staff keep knocking the snow and ice off the roof as you would certainly not want to be under that snow when it falls off the roof.

Conditions in Les Gets and the Portes du Soleil remain excellent with 85cm on the lower slopes and 220cm at the top of the mountain outside the hotel.

Snow in Les Gets

Following on from Yesterdays picture in Avoriaz, todays pictures was taken in Les Gets by the hotel Christiania manager Derek on Thursday.

February Snow - wish you were here

Sometimes a picuture can say a thousand words.

This was taken in the Portes du Soleil on Wednesday this week

February conditions in Les Gets

Following yesterdays snow Les Gets and the Portes su Soleil open the month with excellent conditions as can be seen from these images from the Les Gets and Hotel Christiania web cams taken this afternoon at 1.30pm local time.

The resort staff report 85cm of snow at the door of the hotel at 1172m, 185cm at the mid point of 1500m and 210cm at the summit of 1800m.

Conditions remain good all over the Portes du Soleil and this is certainly a good year to be in the Alps

 The village

 The mountain view

 Great conditions and clear slopes.

Great conditions in Les Gets

As the picture and videos below show we have great conditions in resort just now.

All these pictures and videos were taken yesterday, blue skies, cold air and great snow.

The snow is coming

If the weather forecasts are correct there should be snow all over the Alps this weekend.

Just in time for the arrival of most of our staff and before the hotel opens for the season on the 9th of December.

As soon as the snow starts to fall we will send you some pictures from Les Gets
