 Poster: A snowHead
|
We are heading to Courchevel 1850 next season - there will be 8 or 10 in our party and we are looking for a catered chalet. Ideally close to the slopes and to the resort centre as we have a non skier and 2 children in our group.
I am currently looking at the Chalet Bellecotte and also chalet Eboulis but would love some recommendations please!

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Any recommendations for meals out too would be greatly received!

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

I'd have a look at 1650, much better value for your money, chalet Mors and Monique are run by Ski Olympic and we had a really good holiday with them in January. Very close to resort centre, the buses run to 1850 if there is a specific reason you want to be there, and easy access to slopes etc in the morning - up an escalator and you are on the snow.
My trip report here, has quite a lot on places to eat on the slopes. http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?p=1697465

...I'd be keen to here about dining options as well. I'm also heading to Courchevel 1850 in a group of around 30 people in January in a hotel right in the centre and near the lifts. Although I'm staying on a half board basis, I've heard it's a fortune just for lunch

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

1550 and 1650 are much cheaper and 1650 ones have a lot of charm. As you come down the escalator cross the road to your left was a great place which did 2 course specials for 10euro which was really nice

I would avoid staying in 1850 - however - if booked, then cheap lunch can be found in the 1850 Forum (shopping area) where you can get a bagette - if you are a luncher - i.e. want a sit down, then the options near 1850 are limited. I generally don't lunch - I eat well at the chalet (I stay in Le Praz) take snax and get back for cake having skied all day - as much as I can t my age - with perhap a coffee stop
On skis you can lunch away from 1850 - 1650 has the Eterlou and Katy's (if open) which are ok value, or ski off to Tim's Ski Lodge at La Tania, or St Martin - there is a restaurant at the botton of the piste b y the drag lift - right as you go under the tunnel in, as exmples
Whatever you do, don't unless you like Oliogarch prices go to Chalet Pierre on the piste back into 1850! I generally us 1850 as a ski through!

That's great FastFlint, thanks very much - I'd rather have a quick bite at lunchtime than stuff meself at Brekkie, little and often an' all that! I suppose I'll smell a rat anyway if I end up on a table next to a certain Mr Abramovich as you've hinted though
