Long shot but has anyone stayed in Le Bollin penthouse in Tignes? Considering to book it for our group but would appreciate any recommendations / reviews.

Seen pictures, it was Pierre Schnebelin's (he developed Val Claret.). So it's big, good views depending on aspect close to the piste, shops and bars in VC. But as I recall there are no bars etc on the ground floor so not too noisy. As for what goes on in the kitchen that depends who is running it this year!

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

@chocksaway, yes, this is the one. We planning to book it on self catering basis , so we will be running the kitchen ourselves ( which will probably mean slightly better food that average chalet menu). And yes, it seems quite spacious and well located, perfect for our party of 11.

I don't know the shops up there by reputation, but tbh they are all pretty much the same.

IMO Ski One is the best hardware/rental shop in Val Claret.
They appear to do a lot of servicing for the racers on the glacier and they've always been conscientious with our kit. One of those places that seems to take a bit of pride in their work.
They've even done discount for super/mega-snowHeads the past couple of years. Perhaps they even will this year? I'll have to ask them when I'm up there for the PSB

Thank you. I know ski one, my son went to the ski school they run but we haven’t rented equipment from them. Will look into this and would appreciate if you ask about a discount if you happen to be there
