Festive Calendar 2015/16
Stay unique.
Dear friends of the Widder Hotel
The nights are getting longer – and that means it’s high time we once again shift our focus to the upcoming festive period and be-yond. Do you prefer tea or champagne? Or does it depend on the time? Can we tempt you with some innovative jazz, or would you
prefer a traditional raclette in our chalet?
Whatever your tastes, our festive calendar has plenty of treats in store to suit them all. Carnivores are sure to go wild for the deli-cacies in our AuGust restaurant, socialites will hit the dancefloor at the Jingle Ball, and food-lovers will delight in our exquisite Christmas menu. And not forgetting our extravagant New Year’s
Eve party to finish out the year with a bang!
No matter what you choose, we’re looking forward to seeing you.
