Hotel La Cachette, Arc 1600, Les Arcs, France

· in the centre of Arc 1600 · ski-in, ski-out or 1 minute's walk to the slopes, ski school meeting point and nursery slopes · 11 minutes' walk to the Cachette chairlift · 4 minutes' walk to the bus stop

Sitting at the base of the slopes in Arc 1600, Hotel La Cachette is all about convenience. It's ski-in, ski-out, with the lifts less than a minute away, and you're right in the centre of town too – so from being first on the mountain to exploring Arc 1600, it doesn't get easier than this. An old fave with a new look and new owners, this is a stylish pick with top-notch views of the French Alps.

There's an alpine feel inside the hotel, with exposed stone walls and stained wood beams everywhere. Take a closer look at the woodwork and you'll see pine trees and other shapes carved into it, tiny reminders that you're right in the heart of the mountains. In the afternoons, go straight from the slopes to the sun terrace to watch other skiers and boarders weave their way down the mountain, or find your zen with a trip to the spa. La Cachette's got saunas and hot tubs indoors and outside, so you can switch up the scenery as you please.

And mealtimes are a real treat. The restaurant's got a fab view of the slopes, and it's buffets all round. Load up your plate with whatever you want from the continental spread each morning, then enjoy traditional French dishes every evening - make sure to check out the raclette and the dessert bar.
