Good Points

Location was perfect. Could not be better. Food excellent, staff could not do enough to help you.


Bad Points

Compared to Austria, the apres ski was a bit dull, although later on in the evening, the Cavern was very good and the holiday reps did everything that they could to ensure as many fun filled evenings as possible. I know that we were in another country and so this is not intended to sound too bad, but found that it was very hard to take instruction from an instructor who spoke minimal English. I had private tuition and the language barrier did make it very hard to learn. However, he was really nice and apologised at the end of the week that his English was limited. We all had tuition at different levels and all agreed that this held us back.


General Comments

I could not fault the location of this hotel. It really is ski to door. The snow was beautiful and we had fantastic sunny weather. One large snow fall during the week (over night) ensured that conditions remained fantastic throughout. I thought that the choice of food was excellent - so much to choose from that I didn't know where to start. An Italian buffet, (pastas pizzas ratatouille etc etc) An English carvery, salads, all this every night - so yummy! Some of the decor may have appeared a little tired, but hey, does it matter when you have a fantastic location, excellent snow, very friendly helpful staff and fantastic food?
