Chalet Le Dome is a friendly chalet hotel run by Clare, brother Adrian and the rest of their young British team.
The great thing (one of many!) about Le Dome is that you can start your holiday on any day of the week and stay for as long as you like (3 nights minimum). We stayed for 8 nights Saturday-Sunday, giving us 7 days' skiing without eating up more holiday.
Another great 'thing' is the chef, Luke, who puts thought and talent into every menu. The food is excellent - even the vegetarian options, a rarity in the Alps.
There are 38 beds available in 15 rooms, in various configurations. Eight of the rooms have their own shower/wc facilities, and the ratio of bathrooms for the rest of the rooms is good.
Tignes Les Boisses is a small hamlet at a lower altitude than the main resort but (the third great thing!) you can ski to the back door of the chalet and only have to cross the road to ski to the first lift straight up to the main area.
We'll definitely be going back - with some decaffeinated tea for Clare!
