Grange d'Arly - Megeve, France 

We (Husband, kids (6,3) and myself) stayed for a week at the end of March 2008 and had a wonderful time. The Grange D'arly was exactly what we were looking for and turned out it was right next door to the bus depot where all the ski buses to all the resorts started which was a god send we always got a seat and no shoving or long walks wth Ski's!! The food was excellent and the kids were more than catered for, Christine was fantastic every evening and we took a couple of trips into town as we were not tied by half board. Great holiday.

We decided to visit Megeve after a week in St Anton and a further week in Samoens. Megeve fully justifies its excellent reviews and was for us [ average skiers , early sixties, english speakers, live in the Caribbean ] exactly what we were looking for in a resort and more enjoyable than the other two both from a skiing perspective and as a vacation location. The village is expensive but you generally get what you pay for and all of the logistics both on and of piste are first rate. Another reviewer has dealt with the Grange D'Arly in depth and fairly accurately We enjoyed our stay and had absolutely no complaints - the hotel is just as it portrays itself on the hotel website. The owners are indeed characters but work fantastically hard to ensure the comfort of their guests We ate in only once (there are so many good retaurants in Megeve that any half board deal is bound to be a dissapointment) and the dinner was very acceptable. A huge plus for the hotel is its location within 50 meters of the skibus base station giving immediate access to the three routes.
