Si trova ad un passo dal centro del paese di fronte ( se davanti non c'è posto per l'auto) c'è un vasto parcheggio gratuito e anche dietro all'albergo è vicinissimo una deliziosa pizzeria Valido
The owner/manager, was extremely helpful, on Sunday there were no taxi to pick up my brother from the station, he sent someone and refused to take money, just a word of advice no taxi working on Sunday, so be prepared
The Piccolo Chalet is a decent hotel which is a short walk, albeit uphill, to the town centre, and then further uphill to the Clotes lift. Noise carries in the corridors so if you are coming in late your neighbours will probably hear.
The rooms are basic but are kept clean. Fairly good selection of food for breakfast. One coffee machine which makes good coffee but is slow so you may have to wait. Equipment storage in the basement but you may find somewhere closer to the slopes for that.
Showers were cold two days running. The first time was fixed within 40 mins and assured it wouldn't happen again - which it did the very next night. This time fixed in 30 minutes but each time involved a phone call and someone not in the building having to come and "reset the boiler". I was annoyed at the time but Alexandra and Stephano were quite helpful so I can forgive them. Still...
For the price we were expecting fairly basic facilities but the hotel was clean warm and comfortable with friendly staff. Breakfast was good and the location was only 200m from the village centre.
This was an excellent place to stay and exactly what I wanted - somewhere cheap to stay whilst skiing. Having read some old reviews I had low expectations, although the reviews from this year seemed better. I was very pleasantly surprised - the room was of a decent size (although I got a room with a double and a single in it just for me) and the bathroom was great (but no bath, as expected). The hot water worked - it just took a few moments to come on. The beds are uncomfortable (camp beds and actually I think my double was just two camp beds with a double sheet over the top). The stairway echoed so I was up quite a bit when others returned to their rooms and my window looked out onto the main road, where the transfer coaches arrived/departed at 5 and 6 a.m. (only on one day). It is a 5-10 minute uphill walk to the pistes - apparently there is a bus but I didn't see it and I enjoyed the morning warm up...much preferring the downhill walk at the end of the day - you pribably wouldn't want to do this with children, but you are able to hire lockers by the piste to store skis and books, making the walk a lot easier. I didn't. And if you get the bus to Montgeneve, or anywhere else the bus stop is just 50 yards from the hotel door.
Alexandra, the manager, speaks very good English and was extremely friendly. Breakfast was available for 5 euros and just as good as any other resort hotels.

Decent hotel and close to the village
It's a very clean and warm B&B and is close to the center of the village. There is a complimentary shuttel bus that takes you into the villaage and to the ski slope. If you decide to walk into the village, it will only take between 5-7 mins.
very handy for walking into town. plenty of hot water. hotel next door le torre does good prices meals. no breakfast but plenty of places to eat cheap near by
My friends and I were looking for a cheapish hotel near the ski lift - for that, this hotel was okay.
You do get what you pay for - no lift, no breakfast option, no welcoming service.
The customer service of this hotel was probably the worst thing about it. Reception wasn't open when it should have been (which meant we had to wait a while outside), the receptionist forgot our email correspondence and nearly didn't let one of my friends stay (I had to show her our emails to remind her) saying that there was no room...when there clearly was.
The main thing that lets this place down is the fact that the people manning it don't appear to want your custom, it's like they're doing YOU a favour by letting you stay there.
We were also woken up at 8 AM on the day of check out because the lady wanted us to pay as she wanted to leave...she did say we could leave whenever we wanted but it was a bit of an inconvenience...she gave us 5 mins to go down and pay after waking us up.
To summarise:
Fine if you are looking for a cheap hotel near the slopes (it's about a 10-15 min walk) but don't expect any service....
Would I stay there again? ... Only if I had to.
pensavo fosse un hotel e non un affitta camere, arriviamo e sulla porta c'è scritto reception attiva 10,00 -12,00 e 14,00 16,00 erano le 15,40 ho telefonato e abbiamo atteso che la signora arrivasse,
la struttura è piuttosto dimessa, mobili vecchi, nella nostra camere non erano neanche presenti le abatjour sui comodini.
prima mattina acqua fredda...
che dire NON penso di tornarci
