Useful Information

The following information is provided to make your holiday run as smoothly as possible.  Please do not hesitate to email or call if you have any specific queries.

 

ARRIVALS Airport and snowtrain arrivals will be met by a Ski-Inn member of staff or an agreed driver, who will have our name board or the party leader's name on it. Once in resort, you will be greeted by your chalet hosts and helped to your room. A welcome drink, ski fit and ski passes will be organized, and all arrangements for the week explained to you. Early arrivals are welcome, and ski fit & passes will be done as soon as possible, to maximize your ski time. Bags can be stored in the chalet until your room is ready. SKI SCHOOLS & SKI EQUIPMENT As many of you know the first morning can be hectic for groups if you have to organize ski school and equipment.  Our 'hassle free' approach ensures your lessons are pre booked and ski equipment is done at one of our chalets or via mobile hire, ensuring your first day runs as smoothly as possible. SKI SCHOOLS To avoid disappointment and to obtain similar start and finishing times is is important to pre book all lessons. Ski schools require a Visa/Mastercard payment including expiry date and 3 digit security number.  Credit card details can be attached to the booking form to speed things along.  Some  independent ski teachers cannot accept cards. SKI HIRE Working in association with Salomon.  No more boring queues at the beginning and end of the week. For your convenience this is done at one of our chalets. Full range of Salomon ski and boots available and we collect the equipment at the end of the week. Payment in euro cash or credit card ( 1.5% charge for card payments ) TV, DVDS & CD PLAYERS Each chalet is equipped with the above. Please bring a selection of your DVDs and CDs to suit all the family as licensing laws prevent us from showing any. SKI PASSES AND PAYMENT Delivered to your chalet on arrival you can be on the slopes in minutes. Note all passes are electronic now so NO PHOTOS REQUIRED. If you know which pass you will buy, we can order it in advance to maximise your ski time further. This is particularly useful for early and late arrivals. Payment via Visa/Mastercard euro cash or euro traveller's cheques. FAMILY SKI PASS ( Saving up to 160 euros two adults & two teenagers) Couples with more than one child can purchase a 'pass famille'. Two adults with two three or four children aged between 5 - 18 years are eligible to buy this very family friendly ski pass. The only stipulation is that the whole family must buy either a 3 Valleys pass or a Courchevel Valley only.

RESTAURANTS All restaurants accept credit cards both in resort and up the mountain. LINEN & TOWELS All linen and towels provided with a mid week towel change. PARKING Ample Parking at Chalets Nid Alpin, Hélène and Danielle.  Guests at Chalets Nicole and Abigail can use the large car park below the chalets during snowy conditions. SNOW CHAINS Recommended for your journey, unless your vehicle is 4x4.. STAFF DAY OFF Usually Thursday, chalet staff have their day off. Breakfast is laid for you  - all you need to do is load the dishwasher and turn it on. Your chalet host will be happy to suggest and book a local restaurant for you. TELEPHONES Mobile phones work very well in the area and have proven to be very useful. Most chalet phones receive calls and dial locally only. WIFI Wireless Internet connections are available from our Nid Alpin, Abigail, Danielle and Nicole chalets.  Guests in Hélène can connect at the Telemark bar opposite.  So if your laptop has Wireless Networking enabled, why not bring it along? DEPARTURES Airport & snowtrain departures will be collected at an agreed time. Self drives are welcome to depart at their leisure again leaving bags in the garage if you choose to ski. Rooms need to be vacated after breakfast for linen reasons. We wish all our guests a very safe and pleasant journey home and thank you for choosing Ski-Inn.   DON'T FORGET... 1.
