Have stayed at Chamrousse 1650 on several occasions and rented a lovely 2 bedroom apartment at Les Balcons de Recoin. Basic but quite spacious with wonderful views of the pistes. We used ESF ski school each time and never disappointed with the kind and knowledgeable instructors. The apres ski suited us well as we have 2 kids and there are several great restaurants to choose from. Great value for money and close to Grenoble airport. We love Chamrousse!!
