I really like the feel of Chalet Christian, it's the smaller brother of Chalet Philippe. It is tastefully decorated and the open plan lounge/dining area is bright and welcoming. It's on the middle floor of the building and is accessed from the road behind. You can ski to within 100-150m dependent on the snow cover, or the bucket lift is about 200m walk downhill. There is one host looking after you for the week and the standard of food is really high. There is about a 5-10 minute walk into town for the nightlife but a good selection of restaurants close by.

A great location within Alpe d’Huez, being near both the piste (ski to within barely a hundred and fifty yards) and the lift (just a couple of hundred yards away). This old house was later popular as the hotel Etendard before being upgraded to catered chalet status and divided into this and Chalet Philippe (book both together if your group is more than 12 people). The 5 min “stroll” to the Palais du Sport is more like 7 minutes in the stagger home, but it’s good to “walk it off” a bit, so you’re in good shape to charge the first lifts in the morning.
