UK residents make a staggering 71 million trips abroad each year. And a good proportion of those visits are to renowned ski resorts. Whether you’ve been skiing before or are planning your first trip, choosing the best accommodation can cause sleepless nights. For larger groups, the answer is pretty much always going to be a chalet.
Here are just some of the reasons why chalets reign supreme.
You can save money
If you’re watching your pennies due to the current cost-of-living crisis, you’ll be pleased to know that chalets are often cheaper. For larger groups especially, booking one apartment is more economical than reserving multiple hotel rooms. As well as paying less for superior quality accommodation, with a Neilson Mountain Collection chalet, you’ll also enjoy free ski guiding, hearty breakfasts, afternoon teas and six evening meals with complimentary wine.
Less hassle and admin
While some people love nothing more than organising a trip, others find it the necessary evil of going on holiday.
If you’ve ever tried to plan a large group trip, you’ll have experienced first-hand just how challenging this can be. But choosing a chalet simplifies the process. Rather than individually booking multiple rooms and paying a deposit for each, when you choose a chalet, you can enquire online and put down a singular deposit.
If that wasn’t enough, your chalet host can often arrange for lift passes to be delivered to your door, saving even more time.
Experience the comfort of home with the benefits of a hotel
Sometimes the misconception is that chalets aren’t as relaxing as you need to cook and keep your place clean. This couldn’t be further from the truth. With chalets, you get your home comforts and the perks of a hotel. For example, you can enjoy delicious meals prepared by friendly hosts, relax in your own space and savour the company of your loved ones around a private dinner table.
They’re more fun for groups
If you go on holiday in a large group, sometimes you become conscious of how much noise you’re making in the restaurant or bar. Chalets are much more relaxed and provide a sociable atmosphere where you don’t need to be overly conscious of others around you.
To top things off, when you book a ski chalet, you can get comfortable for an evening spent by the crackling fire or unwind in your private hot tub. This unique chalet experience is what makes a ski holiday so much fun.
Final thoughts…
While many people assume that hotels are the be-all and end-all, it’s worth looking into hiring a chalet for a cost-effective option that doesn’t skimp on the luxury touches.
