Le Sherpa

Had a great time in Le Sherpa. Basic but clean accommodation, good food and plenty of it to boot, great staff who are always really pleasant to deal with and helpful.
I would recommend it to anybody, however, if you are easily disturbed by others having fun, I would take some earplugs just in case as there is an adjoining bar with an external smoking area. However, its not a particularly rowdy bar so please don't let that put you off but be aware of it before going
I will be returning again in the future.

There are a few things about Le Sherpa that you should be aware of.
The Chalet has a bar attached called the Jolly Good Bar. Its small and shows lots of english football games The Sky TV that is advertised with the chalet is linked to the bar so if a game is showing that the bar advertises then you will not be allowed to watch anything else on Sky until it is finished.
Also, we had people come in from the bar to use the toilet on many occasions.
On Wednesday nights the bar has a 'Curry Night' for 15 Euros per person. This sounds great especially as Wednesday is typically the chefs night of in most catered chalets in the area. But what the owners of Le Sherpa have done is cunningly sold out the dining space and chef in the chalet you have already booked and paid for, so even if you wanted to get a take away you cant sit and eat it at the dining table because its already filled with strangers.
We thought this was a bit much and it wasnt something we were made aware of until it was too late. In fact when we were told of this at our welcome chat, there was already less places left than we had in our group so even had we have booked up it would have been a squeeze.
Your Chef actually has Thursday nights off when another staff member fills in and cooks dinner. In fairness it wasnt this meal that left a sour taste in our mouths but the whole principle of the curry evening.
The rooms are very basic and seriously lack storage space and while the rooms are classed as en-suite the reality is a little different. Its true that most have toilets and showers/baths in our case there was just a flimsy plastic folding door seperating the rooms and it wasn't very private. You might as well be in the same room to be honest so be aware.
In another case the room had only a shower with a curtain hiding their modesty and unfortunalety they were friends from work and didnt want to show each other their bits and bobs.
The food was good, the breakfasts really set you up for the day. The staff were all very friendly, especially the bar staff so absolutely no complaints there.
In fact I wont say there is anything wrong with Le Sherpa but would advise you know what you are getting into. In my opinion our rooms were basic and one step up from a hostel. But in hindsight this is reflected in the price.
Unfortunately for us, it wasnt what we wanted or expected so we probably wont stay here again unless it was a last minute thing or just a few days away.
