Choosing the right accommodation for your next ski holiday is critical to ensuring you have the best experience possible.
When it comes to finding the best luxury ski experience, one of the most commonly asked questions, and maybe the first one you’ll ask yourself, is ‘book a luxury chalet or a luxury hotel?’ Choosing the right accommodation for your next ski holiday is critical to ensuring you have the best experience possible, and getting it all wrong can turn what should be an unforgettable experience into a week-long headache. Finding a hotel is understandably the most obvious accommodation choice for skiers who want to maximize time on the slopes while minimizing any extra responsibility. Here are five reasons why you should stay in a luxury chalet rather than a hotel this year.
5 best reasons to book a luxury chalet this year
1.Book a luxury chalet with complete privacy and space
While spa hotels may have big suites with private sitting areas, the living spaces provided by these alternatives sometimes pale in contrast to those found in luxury chalets. For example, a stay at Chalet Bella Rocca in Verbier gives a substantial 500m2 of private living and leisure space with a spa area. When reserving a stay for the same party size at a 5-star hotel room in Verbier, you’re likely to discover roughly 150m2 – there’s no comparison here. Whether you want to spend a snowy day by a blazing fire or are determined to hit the slopes, a luxury chalet allows you the freedom to do so.
2. Exclusive use of private amenities
Prospective guests will be bombarded with magnificent images of oasis-like swimming pools and wellness areas on luxury hotel websites – with barely a soul in the picture. But, the reality might be somewhat disappointing; hotel amenities are seldom unoccupied, as experience will show you. After a long day of skiing, a few calm laps in a hotel pool may rapidly transform into a genuine slalom course for kids, families, and holiday parties – and don’t expect to get in a jacuzzi without a timeshare. A stay in a luxury chalet, on the other hand, helps you avoid this nightmare entirely; the facilities are exclusively yours at all hours of the day and provide you with complete privacy. ‘Peak times’ are an expression.
3. A flexible, personalized, and adaptable experience
Luxury should never be used as a catch-all phrase. What comprises the ideal holiday will be absolutely unique to each visitor – and it is this concept that guides every part of our luxury-chalet service. Although many hotels provide a uniform, one-size-fits-all approach to servicing their visitors, we strive to personalize. Clients are welcome to discuss their culinary preferences with our chalet staff before to their stay at a catered chalet, allowing our in-house chefs to provide unique, personalized menus – crafted purely with the customer in mind. A hotel concierge crew can be useful and helpful, but they will also have to attend to many other visitors.
A chalet manager, on the other hand, is solely focused on you and will make every effort to convert your proposals into reality, whether it’s arranging unique events around the resort or adapting the in-chalet experience to match your preferences.
4. There are no hidden fees
Hotels don’t include food and house beverages in their total holiday package. A week-long stay might result in a huge bar tab that unwary guests are required to pay once the trip is done. Most of our catered serviced chalets, on the other hand, are not like hotels in this regard. House refreshments, including free-flowing wine, cocktails, and limitless Champagne, are all included in your offer, so visitors may sip with confidence, knowing that everything has been pre-paid.
5. Similar (and, in most cases, competitive) price
When comparing the benefits of a luxury chalet to a 5* hotel, it is reasonable to consider whether all of this is represented in the cost – and that even though you may compromise on certain things by staying in a hotel, you will save money. However, this is not the case; for example, a stay in one of our luxury catered chalet towards the end of March would cost less per person than a stay in an exceptional suite at a boutique spa-hotel in the same location.
None of this is to say that there aren’t some obvious benefits to staying in a hotel (or even a serviced apartment) rather than a luxury chalet. For one thing, the size of luxury chalets may be better suited to bigger parties and families – and our chalet workers aren’t as accessible late at night as a concierge would be (understandably so, I might add; our teams need to rest and recharge in order to provide guests with the quality and attentiveness of service that is their hallmark). When you consider all of the advantages that a luxury chalet may offer visitors searching for a fantasy alpine retreat, the distinction is evident.
Our chalet-stay combines absolute solitude with unrivalled service and focuses on creating an environment for clients where luxury is defined not only by the quality of the chalet amenities, but also by the smallest of details. It’s more than just luxury lodging; it’s a one-of-a-kind client-led holiday experience, where the attention is entirely on you from the time you book to the moment you return home.
