Arosa is a lovely place to ski. Great for families with varied slopes including a snow park and tracks through trees that little ones love. The shops are limited for gifts and it feels retro rather than traditional Alpine, yet Arosa has beautiful views which make up for this. Eating out is limited and quite expensive. Few places meant we found it hard to get a table in the village at lunch times, yet up the mountain was fine.

I was in Arosa in January. Brilliant lifts, weather, snow and views. What a spot-highly recommend it. Everything works well, the ski runs are superbly marked and one is away from it all.
Getting there was no issue-the ride was truly beautiful.
However , there was a "gay ski weeknd " on and I was truly apalled at the conduct of some of these folk. They were dressed in some outrageously effeminate attire-truly scandalous kissing in public(and more)!

Have been to Arosa twice; in March 2008 and January 2009, staying in a self catered apartment, about 10 mins walk to the chairlift and main gondola. Both times we had absolutely fantastic snow conditions, really couldn't have had better.
Booked the accommodation ourselves and got there (flew into Zurich airport), on the train - takes a while but is picturesque. Note that if you're not driving, the train, from Chur is the only way to the resort - beautiful train ride, and an amazing feat of engineering, but takes a while.
I'm a boarder (for the last 6 seasons) and the runs are quite good, and well groomed, though I only attempt blues anyway. I'm not a terrain park rider, but the one there looked top notch. Not so crowded either, though we were there outside of the school holidays.
One criticism about Arosa is that the runs (that I went on) are quite narrow, that might put off some people. I had a big crash near the bottom one time, due to lots of ice, but that happens anywhere.
Also did some tobogganing. This was great fun, with some good routes to try - except at one time, some skiers coming down past us.
Arosa resort, when we went, was nice and quiet (if you're into that) with no thumping music or drunk people in the early hours. However, it could do with a few nice bars, just for a few drinks afterwards. Arosa has enough restaurants and coffee shops - if you want more, go down to Chur.
The ski bus is free, but gets way too crowded for its own good, as in, full to absolute "sardine" capacity.
Lift prices are not cheap, but where is these days?
'Reasonable' prices for food at the top - but stick to things like soup & chips, and it's not so pricey.
We didn't spend all of our days in Arosa, so did a bit of sightseeing - you can easily get to Davos, Klosters, St Moritz on the train. If you need a day off the slopes, and like Swiss railways, you'll be happy here.
Will consider going to Arosa again, but next time, to try skiing rather than boarding.

Arosa - what a relatively undiscovered delight. Fabulous skiing, well maintained pistes, great apres-ski, but not too noisy, excellent transport system. Highly recommend Hotel Cristallo - great rooms, views and restaurant. Ski bus stops just outside, to/from either end of resort. Off-piste is great when conditions permit. Skied there twice in 2008. Try the helicopter over to Davos for a change of scene if time permits.

We run a catered chalet in Arosa which we feel is quite a unique resort with it's Swiss mountain train from the oldest city in Switzerland (connected by intercity train from Zurich), the quality and friendliness of service, beauty, activities, apres-ski...a refreshingly relaxed and easy-going all round resort.
The adventurous skier should buy the Ski Safari pass (an extension of 20CHF per day to the Arosa pass), which allows you to ski off the back of the Hornli ridge (at the top of the Hornli gondola) to meet Tchiertschen lifts, which take you to the Lenzerheide ski area, and then you return back to the bottom of the Hornli cable car at the end of an exhilerating day.
Also, an early morning train from Arosa to Davos would enable you to catch the first lifts of Davos ski area to return over the ridge to Arosa, via Langwies, which offers a free mountain train service (10 minutes) to Arosa with the Arosa lift pass.
Arosa is a very lovely place to have as a base to enjoy the unspoilt, high altitude mountains, and why not choose Chalet Runca (saturday to saturday) to stay, with all its home comforts and resident chef?!

Last week we were in Arosa for 4 nights in the Tschuggen Grand Hotel. The views were splendid and this area is beautiful. The skiing is great, good chairlifts and preferable above the gondolas. It is a ski area with a lot of sun and although there was much slush puppy snow, the ski runs were well maintained without brown or black spots on the runs. Tschuggen bar had a wonderful Tschuggen café. Really a recommendation.
All ski runs in this area can be skied in one full day. But three days are still good. When there is much powder, it is tempting to ski for 5 days for the cracks. For the beginners there are the top runs, quite steep and I would wonder if the low runs are always in that good snow condition to have a nice beginners week. When the connection is made with Lenzerheide it will be a great place for one week, but till then it is nice for a few days and enjoy the fresh air and the views!
