Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi I am going to Montgenevre on Boxing day (I say going...maybe just sitting in a snowbound traffic jam) and think I will get to resort around lunchtime. I know that MG does a deal on a six day pass giving you 4 hours free on arrival day, but I am sure the appt (Le Hammeau Des Airelles) wont be available to dump kit etc that early in the day (tour op says 4pm). Anyone got any ideas on storing luggage (eg is the ski store suitable??)?
thanks in hope!
Alan

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

You can pay extra (local charge) to have early access to your appartment. We booked this service but then didn't get there as early as expected and they waived the charge.

we got to apts about 12:00 with Neilson this year the people on the desk seemed as if they were prepared to stay late and check everyone in
Top tip time, they have 1 taxi/minibus to transfer you from car park to apt, but its only 300m, they suggested load luggage in inibus and walk up, we wasted no time in doing this, and the when at Apts 1 of us checked in while the other got the luggage, this meant we were 2nd in the queue for a room key.
skis rentals were available instantly from twinner 20m away, as they wanted to us sorted early before the rep arrived with block booking.

6 numbers on wed lottery and you may find me joining you
the mountain cafe at Gontrans wasn't to expensive, we used to do an 11:30 stop for a crepe each(1 acloholic filling ), soft drink and a liquer coffee and it was about 11 euros

You can get your apartment earlier than than normal times (5pm) at this one by paying an official bribe of €45 (from memory). This can be done via your tour op.
