Just had a great week at Chalet Lavachey now (for couple of years I think) run by Alpine Elements. AE staff were really brilliant and rooms, food, etc all great, bath and shower perfect and always hot water. For position it does not get better - village centre ski to/from the chalet. Would thoroughly recommend. Teenagers had a ball and... More

Just returned home from an amazing holiday in Tigne at the chalet lavachey. You can't get a better location for a chalet, walking distance to all the main ski lifts, resteraunts, bars, shops, swimming pool and bus stop to other resorts. The food at the chalet was excellent, lovely three course meal every night, endless amount of chalet wine, If... More

Just returned from staying 1 week in Chalet Lavachey run by Alpine Elements. Having read the reviews i was a little bit dubious as to what to expect. We had a room on the top floor which have been modernised, the twin room was basic, seperate toilet and bathroom with balcony. The room was clean, beds very comfortable, with regards... More

I though this was an excellent chalet. It is fair to say that it is a little outdated but what certainly makes up for that is the location and staff. The staff could not do enough to make the holiday more enjoyable and it had a very homely feel. The location is such that you are a matter of metres... More

I have stayed with Alpine Elements a few times and have no complaints. Lavachey is in a great location which is seconds from main lifts going up both sides of the valley. Having been to Tignes a few times and had to walk up hills and/or stairs to get to chalets this is one to remember. The decor is basic,... More

We spent a week in Chalet Lavachey, Tignes, in February 2011, and enjoyed our stay there immensely. Okay, it's certainly not a luxurious property, but it was clean, the staff were superb and couldn't do enough for us, the food was good, and the location was worth the money alone! The rooms were small, but it's purely somewhere to sleep,... More

This chalet, currently run by Alpine Elements, is a bit like taking a trip back to a university hall of residence, or a school boarding house. A hall that smells of feet, a living room where you may have to sit on the floor because there's not enough space on the clapped-out sofas and chairs covered with throws for half... More
