I want to go to the French Alps, to some cool hotel to do some skiing and mountaineering. I want something nostalgic...some special atmosphere.

Hameau Albert 1er. My wife wouldn't countenance anywhere else in Cham. Excellent sommelier.

Specific recommendations, presumably.

I also enjoy the ambience of old-fashioned alpine hotels. The best I've ever stayed in was in the Spanish Pyrenees.

If you’re minted. I have eaten there and actually I think the menu is a little dated and the hotel soulless, but each to his own. It’s certainly not a nostalgic mountain retreat being right near the centre of Cham., but handy for the MBC if you want to mix with climbers and skiers.

They only have trolls in Austria. Slightly different spelling, with a y.

A picture of this keeps coming up in my screensaver, irritatingly.

Misurina's in Italy - where they have South Trolls, surely?
