The Hotel La Cachette is a classically French mountain ski hotel for those who want to experirence skiing like a local. The hotel stands at the bottom of the piste in Arc 1600, and the south-facing rooms have superb views down onto Bourg Saint Maurice. Its location gives you instant skiing access, and then you can come back to refuel on the sun terrace with a bite to eat at lunch - or a refreshment of the liquid variety when it’s time for après in the hotel bar.The decor is French Alpine, particularly in the bright and airy communal areas, with exposed stone, stained wood beams, and deep red carpets. Comfort in these areas surpasses that of the bedrooms, but you can still be assured of a good night’s sleep.The restaurant serves up traditional French cuisine with a menu which changes daily to make the most of seasonal ingredients. As you’d expect in a French-run establishment, there's a substantial wine list to make every meal merry.For kids, you can get free baby and toddler equipment so there's no need to bring it with you.
