The Brezza family has been working in the hotel and restaurant-sector for three generations, turning an authentic vocation of their land into a family business.
Since 1887 the Royal Superga Hotel is an exaple of Cuneo's hospitality with different families alternating for its management. Its name was an homage to the "Royal Family", guests in transit to the hot springs.
Over the generations, we have put all our efforts into making our family home a warm place to stay. In the heart of La Salle-les-Alpes, one of the 4 villages that make up the Serre-Chevalier Valley, our Logis hotel Le Christiania
LES CHALETS*** is the ideal accommodation to fully enjoy cycling in the 3 Vallées: Méribel, Courchevel, Val Thorens.
A warm welcome, a cosy atmosphere and great service are the main objectives at our inn.
