Le Grand Chalet Des Pistes

For the price, it does the job. The room isn't anything special, but it works for a week mainly spent skiing, with the slopes just across the street. The bar is handy for a couple of drinks and stays quiet enough for a pleasant stay. It's an apartment, so expect to pick up what you need at a market, including essentials like toilet paper.

The location near the slopes was good, and in general it was a nice place to stay. But the room we had felt small even for two adults, so adding two children would have been a squeeze. We had to pay extra for most things, including room cleaning and having the beds made on arrival. Check-in wasn't until 5 pm, while we had to leave by 10 am at the latest, which felt cheeky. They also took more than two weeks to return our €300 deposit. I had to contact Monzo to get it refunded, so I've lowered my rating from three stars to two.

The view looks straight onto the ski slopes, and the location is great. The place was spotless and the food was really good. Book parking ahead of time. Keep up the good work.

Breakfast is great, and you can ski in and out from here. A few things to know: the Wi-Fi is painfully slow, there’s nowhere to service skis or boards, and reception can’t help after 8 pm. The rooms also use fold-out or sofa beds.
