The Hotel Christiania, Les Gets has now been in the sole ownership of the KING family for 17 years.  John King has been in the ski industry for over 42 years starting a company in 1977 specialising in organising skiing weekends to the ski resorts of Glenshee and Cairngorm in Scotland.

In 1981 he took his first winter charter seats from Edinburgh / Geneva and ran several chalets in the resorts of Verbier, Meribel & La Clusaz. In the following years chalets in St Anton, Zermatt, Courchevel, Les 2 Alpes & Alpe D’Huez, were added in addition to Les Gets & Morzine. During the nineties, he operated a successful ski programme to a wide range of USA & Canadian ski resorts. Married to Nicola and with two daughters Rosie & Alice, Les Gets and the Hotel Christiania has become their winter home where a warm welcome is always assured.

The family are extremely proud of the hotel and have a loyal following of wintersport enthusiasts some of whom have indeed been guests of John for over 40 years.
