Smiggins Hotel is right on the snow and is the perfect place for the young family to learn to ski. The valley is protected in all weather conditions so they can explore in safety. When they get advanced enough thye can still access Perisher Valley and Blue Cow so very convenient. The Smiggs Hotel has a great atmosphere in the evening and perfect to unwind with a glass of red and they really cater for the kids..Accommodation is cosy and warm and the convenience of skiing in and out of the hotel is hard to beat. Gets a big thumbs up fromm me! (Date of experience: Jul, 2008 )
