A lovely modern apartment, very well apointed and spacious. Very clean, with good linen and towels provided
Lovely large balcony and beautiful views up towards Linga and also down the valley through the great large windows (let in loads of light!)
Loads of bathrooms (3) which is great for a larger group.
Very nice to have a boot warmer in the utility and the tumble dryer was very useful.
Kitchen is well stocked with equipment, if you are planning on self catering there is a supermarket 5 mins drive away, or a smaller casino ( ?I think?) supermarket in the middle of the village
The location is lovely, there is easy access into Chatel village a few minutes walk away, and there is a ski bus stop close by, or covered parking if you drive.
TV has english channels, and a Wii machine attached also wifi available.
Chatel itself is a very nice proper mountain village (ie not purpose built for the ski industry) Avalanche bar was good for a bit of apres-ski and live music later, La fiacre was good for traditional Savoyard food and La Poya was delicious for a bit more upmarket dining. Both highly recommended.
There are plenty of ski hire outlets in the village, but we used skihire 2u who brought our equipment to the apartment and fitted us out here.
The ski area is obviously great but chatel has good access both to the superchatel area and then into switzerland, or towards avoriaz via inga and pre la joux, the lifts wer quick and we had very little queiuing at any time, even for the busy return lifts. out of avoriaz and lindarets.
We had a great time staying here, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone,
