Stayed at the apartment over Xmas and New Year 2011 with a party of 7 consisting of 2 family groups. The accomodation was ideal for our party with one family in the lower floor and the other family in the upper area. The kitchen was well equipped and we dined around the large table most evenings. Excellent location for Saint Gervais - which is a lovely town - and handy for the ski bus which is 5 minutes ride from the gondola which takes you to Le Bettex. The television with English channels, PS3, blu ray/dvd player and extensive collection of films helped to keep all amused at some point of the holiday and the lounge area was very comfortable. There is parking facilities for two vehicles and the apartment block is easy to find as you enter Saint Gervais. Had a great time and this apartment was the ideal base for our skiing holiday!! |

We came for a wedding in mid-September and stayed at this apartment. It was very well equipped with a large open-plan living and dining area. We were just a couple so we only needed one bedroom but the apartment would comfortably sleep 8. The balcony has wonderful views. It obviously would be perfect for a skiiing holiday as it is near the Mont Blanc railway and other ski lifts. It's just a 5 minute walk to the bars and resataurants in the centre of St Gervais. We mostly ate out but the kitchen area is well-set up for cooking in-house. Very recommendable. |
