Village Montana Hotel

Flew from Birmingham International to Lyon and picked up a Sixt hire Car (good price) - got a BMW 318D estate.
Drove for over 3 hrs to Tignes. This was easy as car has sat nav - a bonus we didn't expect. Unfortunately there had been a major accident on the 'motorway' which delayed us. (Getting back to the airport only took 2hrs 30mins at 6am.
Arrived at the Hotel, booking in was simple and efficient although finding the underground car park was a little more difficult.
The apartment was clean, in good repair and comprised of a toilet, bathroom (bath with shower over) 2 bedrooms with 2x single beds, a lounge/dinning area, sofa converted into a double bed but we did not use it as there were only 4 adults. Kitchen area had Combo microwave oven, 4 rings, fridge and dish-washer.
Only down side was the noise from some of our neighbours (decided to party a couple of nights until 3 am apart from that the apartment was excellent.
Tignes le lac is quite a quiet resort - only a few bars and restaurants. We would certainly recommend Rendezvous for Pizza and the Hotel on the main street by the island for 'proper' meals - Had duck in Cranberry and peaches - fantastic!
There are more ski hire shops than anything else. My advice is to pre-book on the web.
The skiing is superb. The Espace Killy is one of the largest ski areas and in my opinion only just beaten by the 3 vallees. You can ski almost to the apartment door.
Overall the week was fantastic although that was probably influenced by the clear blue skies, warm temperatures, and ample snow from the 'dump' they received the previous week.
I would recommend both the resort and apartments. We'll be back!
