Had a brilliant stay here, wasnt expecting so much, staff were very helpful and friendly. Food was brilliant....definatly above hostel standard! Although the hostel was at Tignes 1800, the bus stop was right outside the hostel door and we could get up to Tigne le Lac without any problems, (busses every 30 mins) perfect for apres ski aswell as they run into late evening, although we spent most of the night with the hostel staff and other guests. Definatly will be going back! Staff are bilingual, but they were more than happy to let us practice our french with them.
