The room was underneath the staff accommodation, so woken up by late after their night out. Would not go back for the food. ... + more

The chalet was quite nice, the location is a little bit off the beaten track but the hot tub was fantastic. It was the first week of the season and the staff were really up for helping out and keen to impress. Everything was very clean.

This package holiday to Chalet Alaska in Tignes, France departs Saturday 12th April 2025, for a 7 night stay on a "catered chalet" board basis. A local tourist tax (Taxe de Sejour or Kurtaxe) is levied by many councils in European ski resorts. It varies by standard and type of accommodation and is age dependent, so not everyone is charged. It's not included in the basic price of your holiday and is usually paid locally. For reference, the average charged in winter 2024 was between €1 and €3 per person, per night.

•Espace Killy ski area •Fantastic après ski •High altitude skiing

Tignes is somewhere you can ski longer, higher and further than most other resorts in the Alps. Owing its snow-reliability to the Grande Motte glacier, the local ski area is joined with Val d’Isere’s to form the mammoth Espace Killy - intermediates will have a whale of a time here. Choose between 5 different villages, whether your priority is convenience, cosiness or cheap accommodation. Tignes also has one of the most famous New Year parties in the Alps.

Tignes ski resort (pronounce it 'Teens') is one half of the stunning Espace Killy, one of the biggest linked ski areas in France. Because of its high-altitude terrain and access to the Grande Motte glacier, the resort is open both earlier and later in the season than many others and often the lifts are running for short periods of summer skiing. Predominantly purpose built, the resort itself is divided into 5 villages, each different in its own way but all well linked by lifts and bus services. The main area...
With varied pistes at a high altitude, the ski area has impressive powdered terrain for skiers and boarders alike. Beginners can practice on the nursery slopes at Le Lac and Le Lavachet, where you'll find gentle, quiet runs that are accessible via free beginners' lifts. Le Bollin at Val Claret is another conveniently situated green and Grattalu is a lovely wide blue for those wanting to build confidence. Tignes is incredible if you ski at an intermediate level, with miles of powdery blue and red runs includi...
While it's said that those who appreciate Tignes do so for the serious skiing over the après ski, this doesn't do justice to the fact that Tignes' 60+ bars/pubs and 4 night clubs provide some of the best nightlife in the Alps. All villages have their fair share of places to eat and drink, and with a shuttle bus service running 24 hours, you can enjoy your evening without worrying about the journey back. Jam bar is small but with a great atmosphere and Loop bar pretty much offers it all: with live sport, world c...

"Walk into town easily"

Mieczyslaw
5/ out of 5
Adequate, not luxury accommodation – typical ski chalet. Compact, small bathroom. Cleanliness was not great, had end of season complacency. Staff were great, very friendly and helpful. The room was underneath the staff accommodation, so woken up by late after their night out. Would not go back for the food. Small portions, no second servings. Wasn’t exactly gourmet. Location was good. Ski access was very close. 4.5/5 Avoid room 8

"Excellent !"

Staff were excellent and the accommodation was good - basic but clean and tidy no issues. Food was very good; one particular member of the group was gluten free, and they were well looked after! Access to absolutely fine – short walk to the slopes. Chalet worked well for a large group .

"Welcoming staff, good food, brill location"

Kate, Bristol

First impressions – everyone was very welcoming and there’s lots of room with everything being nice and clean. Food – the food was good and there was plenty of it, everything was presented nicely and it was very traditional. Rooms – we had 4 of the rooms and they were all different sizes. I wouldn’t recommend the ones in the attic for anyone tall; with the eaves there isn’t much room. The showers were all fine and we always had plenty of hot water. Rest of the chalet – the lounge area was good, the hot tub wasn’t particularly clean so we didn’t use it much but the sauna was nice. Location – it’s ski in, ski out which is brilliant, even though there wasn’t much snow (we were here in April) it was less than one minute to get to the ski slopes and you just get the lift back up. It’s fairly easy to get into town for the bars and restaurants.

"Everything you’d expect, very good value for money"

Adam Souness, Midlothian

The chalet was excellent and we had an enjoyable stay there, I can’t think of any main negatives. It’s a basic chalet facility but for the price and value for money it’s spot on. The room my sons had was a good size, I think I got the lesser room however for a 1 person room it was ideal. The location is good as you have the ability to get on the slopes quite quickly; you just walk down a path between two buildings for 50 yards, clip your skis on and ski all the way down to the lifts. You could plan the runs at night so you ended up there as well. The hire equipment shop is 100m from the chalet and they were brilliant, I took my skis back because they weren’t suiting me perfectly and the staff were more than happy to replace them. The food was most enjoyable and the atmosphere was excellent. WiFi is limited everywhere in France and in the chalet there was only one WiFi unit, so if you wanted anything you all had to sit around it! It was in the lounge area so this wasn’t really a problem.

"For the price we paid, it was fantastic."

The chalet was quite nice, the location is a little bit off the beaten track but the hot tub was fantastic. It was the first week of the season and the staff were really up for helping out and keen to impress. Everything was very clean. It wasn’t the most roomy but how long are you in there for anyway... and there’s lots of room up on the mountains! The quality of the food was great, I wouldn’t argue if there was more of it but the staff did a good job. We had a twin room which was alright but it would have been nice to have a double. The good thing was that we had enough storage which you don’t always get in ski accommodation. Getting out and about was alright as long as the staff showed you where you could cut through, the way back in the evenings was more difficult as it was a little walk uphill.

"Beer on the sun terrace at end of awesome skiing!"

Excellent value from some of the friendliest and most attentive chalet hosts in the alps. It's hard to beat sunbathing on the terrace after a day in the incomparable Espace Killy. Ask the chalet girls and boys if you can pop your 12 pack of stubbies in the fridge - its the ultimate thing to come home to! SNO expert Top Tip: Remember to ask your hosts for to recommend a great local restaurant for dinner when they have their day off, and book your table at the start of the week (you don't want to be trying to get a table when half the chalets in Tignes empty for the weekly seasonaires' night off).

The accommodation was good. When we went the chalet was not full so there was plenty of space. The staff were brilliant! And the hot tub was great. The best thing for me was the altitude - a snow sure holiday with fresh snow all week was worth the transfer time and the skiable area is massive with the full area pass. Off piste is also excellent. Thanks for a good Holliday!
