Just back from a weeks snowboarding holiday in Chamonix. We booked the Riviera Apartments though Crystal Ski and to be honest were not expecting much when we did as the price was so low for the holiday. We were all pleasantly surprised by the quality of the accommodation here, there were 3 of us on the holiday and we were... More

I have just spent a week at La Riviere and I consider it to be good value for money. Days were spent boarding, and evenings out sampling the local restaurants and bars. After a day on the slopes the facilities were suitable enough for relaxing and showering before heading out. My only suggestion would be to consider taking a sleeping... More

The Maeva is a great value for money - in fact we were suprised how large the appartment was (good for 2, for 4 it might be ok if you spend the whole day skiing, but if you have to spend more time in the aparmtnet then it might be too small). There is a locker room where you can... More

The apartments are perfectly pleasant and have a wonderful location with the river as a charming neighbour. It used to be a pleasure to stay here. I noted another reviewer sadly had issues with the receptionists so I wasn't alone and wanted to warn others. I had stayed in these apartments several times before and had a wonderful time and...

We have stayed here for two weeks and it suited us perfectly. Stay here if you want excellent value for money.The kitchenette is great with decent equipment and fridge is massive! If there are just two of you the room is big enough to keep the sofa bed down, comfort wise it is ok. It has been a very happy... More

Me and my family (2 adults and 2 female teenagers) stayed here for a week. This tourist residence benefits of a very comfortable location. It lays just right out (300 meters) from the city main street, out of the car traffic, aside the little river (the Arve), a few paces from the Auigulle de Midi funicular as well as from... More

Four of us staying here for 5 days. When we saw the room, we didin't like it especially we paid for a room for 5 people to stay. I was 4 months pregnant, the room with steep and tiny stairs was damgerous for me; however, when I went to the reception asking for another room, one of the receptionist wearing... More

My partner and I stayed in a self-catering apartment here for a week. It worked out at £280 for both of us for the week which I think is incredible value. It was clean and fresh, we used the fold out bed which wasn't too bad. The kitchen was adequately kitted out and the balcony was a handy little sun... More

This was a very good apartment, we got a great last minute deal so had an apartment for seven amongst the three of us! It was clean and modern looking, and great views of the Alps from the balcony and had appliances such as a fridge-freezer, TV, dishwasher and coffee maker. There was a lounge and dining area and table... More

A group of 4 of us booked this place via Easyjet, and were put off by the reviews of the 4-person, 1-bed studios so opted for the 7-person, 2-bedroom apartment. While it may have been a squeeze for 7, there was definitely room for 6 to sleep and live comfortably (as long as 2 on you don't mind sharing a... More
