A most enjoyable five hour drive via Bolzano, Merano and the Ofenpas got us to Sils, near St. Moritz, by 3pm. We were greeted by the 'boss', Regula, who helped with parking, and by Michelle, the receptionist. Here, we aren't in the EU, so Arabella and Taea have been hired by Collett's despite being UK citizens. This is their third year here. We had a long chat with them before enjoying an excellent four course meal. We are their first guests of this season.
Before that we were also greeted by Andreas, another 'boss'. These family hotels really do try to take care of their guests. Back in Corvara the hotel was much bigger and family members toured the restaurant each evening, chatting to the guests and checking that they were happy.
Anyway, after arriving here we fancied a stroll. Michelle suggested a short walk from the hotel. It passed beside Lake Silsersee, and made for a delightful circuit before returning to our room to unpack. Some of the pictures from that walk are shown below.
