It’s an odd chalet – you’ve got three quarters of the accommodation on one side, then a big public corridor running through the centre, and the lounge, dining room and one bedroom in a separate part of the building.

We all had a really good week away, it’s a great chalet. The food was excellent, nothing too obscure and everyone was happy! They put the menu up in the mornings, so if you didn’t like the sound of anything, you could request something different. Breakfasts were always really good. In terms of storage, our gr... + more

I liked it – it has a bit of a strange layout as far as my experience of chalets and apartments goes – it’s split into two parts with the living area and rooms on one side of the hall, and the rest in another section across the hall.

Centrally located, you’re practically round the corner from the Val Claret nightlife (literally 50 yards away) and staying in a stylish and enticing chalet. You're staying just two hundred yards off the ski school meeting point, and 250y from the Tufs lift access, so you're right in the thick of the action, ma... + more

Espace Killy ski area Fantastic après ski High altitude skiing

Tignes is somewhere you can ski longer, higher and further than most other resorts in the Alps. Owing its snow-reliability to the Grande Motte glacier, the local ski area is joined with Val d’Isere’s to form the mammoth Espace Killy - intermediates will have a whale of a time here. Choose between 5 different villages, whether your priority is convenience, cosiness or cheap accommodation. Tignes also has one of the most famous New Year parties in the Alps.

Tignes ski resort (pronounce it 'Teens') is one half of the stunning Espace Killy, one of the biggest linked ski areas in France. Because of its high-altitude terrain and access to the Grande Motte glacier, the resort is open both earlier and later in the season than many others and often the lifts are running for short periods of summer skiing. Predominantly purpose built, the resort itself is divided into 5 villages, each different in its own way but all well linked by lifts and bus services. The main area...
With varied pistes at a high altitude, the ski area has impressive powdered terrain for skiers and boarders alike. Beginners can practice on the nursery slopes at Le Lac and Le Lavachet, where you'll find gentle, quiet runs that are accessible via free beginners' lifts. Le Bollin at Val Claret is another conveniently situated green and Grattalu is a lovely wide blue for those wanting to build confidence. Tignes is incredible if you ski at an intermediate level, with miles of powdery blue and red runs includi...
While it's said that those who appreciate Tignes do so for the serious skiing over the après ski, this doesn't do justice to the fact that Tignes' 60+ bars/pubs and 4 night clubs provide some of the best nightlife in the Alps. All villages have their fair share of places to eat and drink, and with a shuttle bus service running 24 hours, you can enjoy your evening without worrying about the journey back. Jam bar is small but with a great atmosphere and Loop bar pretty much offers it all: with live sport, world c...

"An odd layout, but don’t let that put you off. I’d recommend it."

Craig Cunningham, Preston
4/ out of 5
It’s an odd chalet – you’ve got three quarters of the accommodation on one side, then a big public corridor running through the centre, and the lounge, dining room and one bedroom in a separate part of the building. The best way to describe it’s probably like a one bedroom apartment with separate rooms… this didn’t turn out to be a problem at all, it was just a bit strange having to walk through a public thoroughfare to get to the rest of the ‘chalet’. The food was average: good on a couple of nights, not good at all one night and ok for the rest of the week. Portion sizes were a bit on the small size throughout the week (when you’re on a snowboarding holiday you need to replace the calories you burn on the mountain!). We appreciate that it was a budget holiday though, and this didn’t ruin the week at all. The girls who looked after us in the chalet were lovely and everyone staying there got on really well. The location is good - in the centre of town (it took about five or ten minutes to get to the slopes). Overall the Tichot is brilliant value for money if you can get the right price and I’d definitely recommend it.

"Great chalet!"

We all had a really good week away, it’s a great chalet. The food was excellent, nothing too obscure and everyone was happy! They put the menu up in the mornings, so if you didn’t like the sound of anything, you could request something different. Breakfasts were always really good. In terms of storage, our group were split between 3 rooms – one which was a little small and another that was quite big. It wasn’t a problem for us because we could share storage between us. The location was really good as it only took us 2 minutes to get onto the first lift.

"Odd layout but nice chalet"

I liked it – it has a bit of a strange layout as far as my experience of chalets and apartments goes – it’s split into two parts with the living area and rooms on one side of the hall, and the rest in another section across the hall. The only downside with our room was that it’s right next to the kitchen, so when the hosties came in to make breakfast they’d wake you up at 6am. It wasn’t a massive problem (I’d just put my headphones in) but might be for some guests. The location is really good as it’s so central, so it was just a short walk to the slopes – not very far at all. We had the advantage of being snowboarders so we didn’t have to put up with ski boots. It would probably take 10 minutes if you walked pretty slowly. There’s a little shop (like a Spar) literally at the bottom of the steps which was really handy.

"One of the best holidays of the year!"

Centrally located, you’re practically round the corner from the Val Claret nightlife (literally 50 yards away) and staying in a stylish and enticing chalet. You're staying just two hundred yards off the ski school meeting point, and 250y from the Tufs lift access, so you're right in the thick of the action, making this a perfect choice if the après ski is just as important to you as snowboarding and skiing. Sure, the bars are slightly nearer than the piste, but we're grateful for that at the end of the night, when a short winter walk makes the perfect end to a busy night.
