Great place for 6 adults, a mixture of family and friends, the apartment was perfect for us.
Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, good shower with plentiful hot water. There is ski and heated boot storage; a nice big communal area with big tables for eating/card playing. The balcony has amazing views of the mountains. It was lovely to be in the heart of the old town. Franck was very easy to communicate with at all stages of our stay, he was very helpful and friendly.
The apartment is about a 3 minute walk from the tourist office where you can collect/buy ski passes. Pick your passes up as soon as possible as the tourist office doesn’t always stay open until 18:30.
You can take the standing open gondola from here. This will take you up to the new town or if you stay on it up to the ‘DMC’ gondola side of the ski area. Beautiful views across the mountains and town. You can ski down from this end if you prefer. Or there is the alpe express which is a covered gondola, again is about a 3 min walk and this will arrive at the nursery slope/ ski school end of the ski area. As a foot note the alpe express has a luggage storage area with lockers which can be booked for the last day if you have a later transfer, there aren’t many so book early at the tourist office/online. It allowed us to have an extra day skiing. Nice toilets there too for changing.
Would suggest Le Roi Ladre for pizza.Book for every meal otherwise you won’t get in.
Ski hire, 2 min walk. Supermarket 5 mins walk.
