Stayed in this establishment in December 2011. Reception staff were excellent, didn't meet any other staff. Generally common areas of the residence in a very poor state of repair with no lighting at all around the ski lockers, which is not great when one returns with skis and boots after a few beers in the dark! Staircases to 1st floor... More

Me and my friends booked this holiday in July 2010. And when i looked at the reviews they made me a little nervous. But we arrived at about 3:00 o’clock and we were met by one of the staff who was very friendly and spoke good English. We were half board and the food was really good and it was... More

Location is good. For a 2 star hotel the bedrooms are ok, the food was excellent and in abundance; both the breakfasts and evening meals (buffet) were superb. There is also a sauna and a small swimming pool (open 16.00 - 19.00).

5* DUMP – DO NOT STAY HERE AT ANY COST. Yes it might be a two star but for the same money you can do much better. We have been skiing 1 or 2 times a year for the last 20 years so know a thing or two about ‘rustic’ chalets. This hotel is scruffy, a health and saftety nightmare... More

We booked this holiday before really reading the reviews on Trip Advisor. I was panicked when I saw how terrible this place was rated! However we were not able to cancel it, and so reluctantly we came anyway. I must say, the location within the resort is fantastic. If you're like me, and don't want to be lugging your skis... More

I have just returned (yesterday) from a one week skiing holiday in Val Claret, Tignes, where my husband and I stayed at the ApartHotel Alpina. This is a ski resort 2 star hotel offering half board accommodation. After booking the accommodation I accessed the Internet to read the reviews. Maybe not the best approach having booked in advance. I was... More

The Alpina is a truly disgusting place, squalid and filthy. The service is equally miserable and utterly indifferent to visitors. The rooms are really cells and the so-called food is junk. The location is good, but this place should be avoided at all costs. I got a refund from Crystal. I am amazed that that this dump is still in... More

Do not stay here. Aside from the excellent dinner menu in the restaurant, this hotel was far and away the worst we have ever stayed at. We were sold a double room, which ended up being a pokey room with two bunk beds and a pull out split double bed (hard to explain but small and extremely uncomfortable). We complained... More

Just returned from a weeks skiing in Tignes whilst staying at the Chalet Alpina (half board). I read the other reviews AFTER booking it and was worried what I might come across at the accommodation...however we need not have been worried. Yes, the room was very small, though we have stayed in 5 star skiing hotels with equally small spaces... More
