Spacious, well equiped and excellent location
Our first time in Saint Gervais and we would definitely go back and stop at this apartment again.
The apartment is practical, comfortable, very well equipped, has a great outlook and is in an excellent location. We were a party of 5 and we had plenty of space and the piping hot water never ran out.
Saint Gervais centre is very nice and very compact and we soon found our way around. The apartment is located in the centre of the small quiet town, ideally located for supermarkets, bars, bakery's and restaurants. It’s just a stones throw away from the tourist information centre where you can get your lift passes. There's a ski bus stop outside the apartment block but we didn't use it as it's only a 10 - 15 minute walk to the Le Bettex telecabin.
There's only a few bars but that suited us, we only frequented one which was very nice and very French. There is a lot of restaurants and bistros but we ended up stopping in and cooking every night as the apartment is so well equipped and the 2 supermarkets just around the corner had everything we needed. There's also a pizza takeaway just over the road that's nice.
We did consider stopping in Le Bettex area but are glad we didn't. The benefits of stopping in town far outweigh being close to Le Bettex ski hub, its so easy to get there anyway on the telecabin. Having said that, i would recommend using the ski lockers at Le Bettex, its easier than carrying skis down or skiing down to town.
I would recommend this apartment in an instant.
