like others, I was anxious; After having booked to stay at the Arktic, I read some of these reviews, however much of that anxiety was alleviated almost as soon as we arrived. As previously mentioned, there is a short (c. 150m) uphill walk with your bag to the chalet - help is offered by the staff to those that require... More

Having read some of the previous reviews prior to our stay, despite the brochure spiel and apparent 5 star Platinum rating, we were filled with intrepidation. However, this proved to be largely unfounded. Firstly, location is a 2 minute walk uphill from the bus drop off. No great shakes and help is offered if needed. A short 5 to 10... More

I am so sorry to hear that other groups have had bad experiences in Chalet Arktic, as we loved it. We spent a week there in January 2010 and were royally looked after. I agree that it could be noisy because of the wooden floors and that the beds were a little small but the views and the food were... More

We stayed at Arktic 9th-16th December 2011 and the place was kept spotless - the cooking and meal service was well above average for kids let loose - they were not mean with the wine and we could always get a fresh cuppa. The beds were rather small for some of the guests and a few of the lads ended... More

Second time here for us - we visited two years ago at New Year and were really spoiled by having a great team at the chalet - one of which was a professional chef - therefore bit of trepidation that the food may not equal previous experience. Having read others review of the property i feel compelled to state that... More

I stayed in the Arktic in April 2011 and went with some trepidation having read all these reviews and I was delighted with the reality of this chalet and our whole holiday with Ski Total. I wonder whether all the gripes were all from the same week and had an axe to grind? My experience with my girlfriend and our... More

Quick update from Ski Total as we run this property in the winter: The Arktic is being refurbed in some areas for this ski season with new bed bases and mattresses, new dining room chairs, refurbished tables in the kitchen and dining room, new cinema lighting and wifi will be freely available to all our guests.

we had the pleasure of staying there for a week until January 30th, 2011. The challet staff were very nice, ski total company not so nice. The impression is that it has become a business adventure where ski total aim at minimizing their expenses: No towel changes over the week unless you put in request. If you finish your granola...

As previous reviewers have said there is a lot to like about this chalet but also a lot that lets it down. The chalet is in a good location - it should be noted that the Chardonet lift is a long button lift so probably not great for newbies. On reading previous reviews i took my own pillow and also...
