Thanks everybody ..

I read all of your suggestions carefully and then ignored all the good advice and booked a hotel in Leysin .. with a spa (lower case) sauna, pool harman etc..

We can use the toboggan park, ice rink, cut price ski passes .. etc..

Canton VD has some good offers at the moment, 20% off many places with welQome vouchers, 100chf offered by the tourist office. Plus the hotel had another 10% off .. So pretty good.
