 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi all,
The last three years we've stayed in Morzine and really enjoyed the town and bars (Dixie Bar, Tibetan and Bec Jaune being our favourites) however this coming Winter there's only two of us (two singles) coming out and as such the cost of relevant chalets in Morzine seem to be quite expensive.
We've looked at Avoriaz as an option as obviously we'd have the option of skiing straight out onto the snow which is a plus but was wondering what the evening nightlife is like? We're not looking to party til dawn, but would like some atmosphere until late evening.
Sound the place for us?
Another option would be to go into a shared chalet where we'd prefer two rooms. Anyone have any links to central Morzine chalets that book by the room that wont cost the earth?
Thanks

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Depends what you are looking for... Chalet Sherpa is cheap and cheerful...

I stayed there last December, and although not at the luxury end of the market it was fine as a base, and the staff were very welcoming (and even started breakfast a bit early so two of us could make it to Avoriaz in time for the start of the course we were on.)

Been to Avoriaz a couple of times and although it has bars and great skiing I have never considered it to be great for night life.
As a couple of guys (maybe you are a guy & girl but mates thus the singles) you could travel anywhere in the Alps. Single rooms are the issue! You may have to identify where has single rooms then choose the resort from there.
Crystal and Inghams have single rooms in Tignes, la Plagne, Meribel but when and how many? Noted on a thread about Ischgl yesterday, which is good for après and skiing, that some of the hotels had singles.
ClubMed Chamonix do single rooms at same price as doubles often. Fully inclusive prce but right in middle of Chamonix.

If people want separate rooms the last place you want to go is France. A typical apartment for 4 will have 2 bunk beds in the entry and two sofas which convert to single beds in the living room.
Single beds are rare in ski resorts but in Austria some B&B style small hotels outside the main resort area often have a reasonable supply of singles Mr Google will find them.
