Samedan, Switzerland, also is not the easiest, if following the realistic approach procedures. I think they also demand special license there, but I am not certain.

Finally, as mentioned earlier, Kai Tak, Hong Kong, now dead however.
Sion is my favourite. Starts as a 6 (eek!) degree glideslope ILS approach, offset 7 degrees from the runway, becoming visual at 3500ft, left turn over the town, followed by a right turn to land. Alps on either side. Not much room for mistakes.

This is it done in real life..
