Nice and cozy place with perfect location to spend your holidays in Chatel! Just 7 minutes by walk and you’ll get the nearest ski lift) There’s everything you need and even more inside, provided by hosts: fully equipped kitchen, tea, coffee, clean towels and bed linen. Perfect value for money, hosts hospitality and friendly atmosphere the things why I’ll be back) Highly recommended. Thanks a lot Thomas and Michaela)

Excellent location and warm welcome. Very well equipped kitchen means you can self cater and keep costs down. Comfortable lounge with a great view over Chatel, drying/boot room for ski equipment. Nearest lift 5 minute walk away. Property kept very clean.

Reduced headroom in first floor bedrooms and bathroom. Not a massive issue but something to consider if you are tall. Noise some nights from bar below the property.

Unlike most surrounding accommodations, this one does not charge you extra for anything (linens, towels, etc. are included)! The location is perfect - 5 min away from Super Chatel lift and next to the shuttle stop (if you ever need it). The accommodation is clean, has everything you need, and most importantly, the host (Tomas) is amazing!!! Super friendly and responsive, makes it easy to check in even at midnight!

The owner is very kind and helpful, keeping the whole hostel super clean and a positive energy among the guests. The shared kitchen, dining and living room area is great for hanging out and chilling. Great location in an amazing little village which is still not too touristy.

Just the height of our room and bathroom we’re quite short so you have to be bending most of the time.

Fast wifi throughout. Well appointed kitchen and 24/7 coffee corner. The view from the table and balcony is spectacular.

I was in a small room , which was fine but the only ventilation came from a sky light which had to be closed because it was raining, this made the room stuffy. A fan in the room would have helped a lot.

The location is perfect right in the center of town, and the chalet is very adorable with magnific Alpes mountains view surrounding, the terrace behind has super nice view of the valley. The coplue owner welcome the tenants with hospitality. My family we arrived first night around late midnight, the owner organized our room and left us message for the accommadation. The day following welcomed us with smile and a bunch of useful advice for visiting the tourist spots nearby ! I sincerely appreciate them and recommend this lovely hostel to anyone travel alone, with your beloved partner or friends or family.

As others have mentioned, it was much more like a chalet experience than a hostel. Michaela and Tomasz are very friendly and helpful, and they provided us with fantastic homemade meals a couple of nights, which added to the the chalet feel. They also gave us early access to the hostel on our first day, which gave us an extra half day’s skiing. We were three families and had lots of space to eat and socialise in comfort. The rooms were all comfortable (even if some of the bathrooms are a little small for the taller teenagers!). The location is good - close to the town, ski lift and bus stop. The bar downstairs was noisy a couple of nights but Michaela and Tomasz are very upfront about that and it was never that bad. All in all, a really great place for 3-4 families to have a good value self-catered chalet experience.

Nothing - the bathrooms are quite small and the bar can be noisy but this is highlighted before booking.

What's not to like? Very centrally located, comfortable with first class facilities and with a fantastic view from the terrace. The host was incredibly pleasant and helpful and even provided a welcome beer. Would highly recommend.
