Weekend trips and short breaks are proving to be ever more popular each winter. We are therefore very happy to be offering a range of apartments and hotels for winter 09/10 that can offer stays of less than 7 nights during the low season dates.
Most Short Breaks are available in January or late March/April when the resorts are quiet, the pistes are empty and the lift queues short. Short stays must be for a minimum of 2 nights and are subject to availability at the time of booking.
Please Note: it will not be possible to book Short Breaks over peak periods such as New Year, February school holidays.
Check-in times will usually be 14.00 on day of arrival and check-out at 12.00 on day of departure, but most properties have a luggage room if you want to maximise your time on the slopes. In some properties, bed linen and towels are included and beds are made up on arrival – please check with your booking agent when making your reservation.
We can book weekend and short break self-catered apartments in a wide range of Pierre & Vacances, MGM Residences and Maeva accommodation, as well as a number of independant properties such as The Lodge Morzine and Anaite properties in Les Houches and Montchavin.
If you'd like a catered option, a number of our hotel suppliers can also offer short stays, including (but not limited to) the Hotel Mecure Chamonix Centre, Hotel Mecure Belle Plagne, Hotel Mecure Les Duex Alpes, Hotel L'Ours Blanc Les Gets, Latitudes Hotels in Arc 1800, Meribel Centre, and Les Menuires, and Club Hotel L'Aujon Flaine (please ask us for other resorts/options).
All quotes for weekends and short breaks are tailor-made so please contact our sales team who will be able to check availability and give you prices and availability.
