Résidence premium Arc 1950 Le Village Pierre & Vacances

Lovely accommodation but a total lack on control in reception when some guests don’t keep to the expected standards. Night one out neighbours were out of hand but we accepted it’s an exciting time. Night two the same and when reported reception say they will stop it now and in future. Night three… is this a bad dream Night four here I am again at reception Night five, a rare night off Night six, again I have to complain in order to get some sleep. By this point I’ve also been made aware of other rooms that’s are complaining. Shouldn’t happen in such a nice block of apartments, spoils the experience. This was our third year, it will also be our last

We stayed in Prince des Cimes apartments and were very comfortable. Firstly the situation was excellent being a few hundred yards to the Cabriolet lift up to Arc 2000, opposite the supermarket and with a bakery next door. We had wonderful snow conditions and you could ski to the door. The apartment was well equipped and comfortable. We had a one bedroomed one and it would have been cramped with four people. However we had five in our party and next door apartments and so were able to leave the sofa bed up the entire time and use the other apartment for cooking, eating and relaxing. We were on the first floor, overlooking the front door, very near the lift and opposite the recycling room so never had to walk far. The swimming pool and sauna were on the same floor and towelling robes and slippers were provided. I had a swim most days and it was very quiet. Sleep quality was good - very quiet. A downside was a safety issue with the balcony and access was locked. However we had a small refund and I doubt we would have used it anyway. I am sure it will be safe by the summer where you would want to use it. Staff were very helpful. There was a real fire in the lounge. Access to the ski room was very easy.

I recently stayed a week in Le Manoir Savoie with my daughter. We had a two-bedroom two-bathroom apartment and it was perfect for us. The apartment was warm and comfortable and the right size for us, even though it is advertised for six. Even with only two our stuff spread out and it was a jigsaw cooking in the tiny kitchen. Two couples or a family would find the space challenging - nowhere even to put cases if you don't arrive by car, and nowhere to hang wet ski clothes to dry. Six people would get to know each other extremely well. I don't know if it was a mistake but P&V had left extra towels in the bathroom so we didn't go the week using the same towel. The apartment and the entire building needs a spruce up - painting, minor repairs, new carpets etc. The upholstery on one chair was splitting at a seem in our lounge room and a bedroom had a loose power point. Do not expect 5-star hotel quality of furnishing and fittings. Arc1950 is absolutely ski-in ski-out, even though some of the closest lifts didn't open to 9:15 am - not P&V's fault. The ski locker room would be crowded with nowhere to put on boots if the place was busy. Arc1950 is definitely picturesque even though the gaudy snack bar signage spoils some photos. By the end of the week the artificiality was wearing on me. We found that the menus on all the restaurants seemed pretty much the same so only ate out twice in the week. Overall I'm glad we stayed here, but partially due to Les Arcs as a resort and partially due to Arc1950 I doubt we will return.

The apartment was well equipped and comfortable although lacking power points. The sauna and steam room were great but hot tub on small side and pool required walk to another building. The village was lovely ski in / out with lots of great restaurants.

We had a great stay at Pierre Vacances / Manoir de Savoir. It is a very organised and professional apartment/chalet block in a good location. The rear taxi/bus drop-off and waiting lounge is very helpful when departing. The gym and spa is a little dated but still good quality and has two saunas. The reception staff are very helpful and courteous, especially Flora who helped us overcome some problems with the wifi and a query regarding our transfer back to Bourg that required telephoning our travel agent. Our apartment was very clean and well-stocked with good quality furnishings and linen. It was also very warm. There are TWO areas for improvement. Firstly, the spa needs to be strictly adults only, as often there are many children. Two, the ski lockers are a padlock. This is fine, but a key card is just a little easier. We will be back in the future.

We have been coming for years and the village is just charming every time. There are a few new restaurants in the village which is nice to see. The apartments are well equipped and to a good standard. Ski in and ski facilities with a fantastic ski range. Good mountain food and beverage offerings also. Pedestrianised village so super safe for all. We stay in Auberge Jerome which is literally on the ski slope.
