Accommodation in Les Arcs
Les Arcs has a reputation for being apartment-dominated, and there certainly are hundreds of apartments in the various villages, including some very smart ones in Arc 2000 and Arc 1950. But there are hotels too, and chalets (catered and self-catered), especially in Peisey Vallandry, and a choice of all-inclusive Club Med complexes. The cheapest accommodation is down the mountain in the valley town of Bourg St Maurice which is linked to the ski area by a funicular railway.

Apartments in Les Arcs and Peisey-Vallandry

There is a huge choice of apartments in Arc 2000. At the top end, ‘flexi-catering‘ is probably a better description than ‘self-catering‘ because many of the residences have a reception service that will organise deliveries of fresh bread and croissants in the morning and there are plenty of nearby restaurants in the evening.
The 5-star residence Chalet Altitude in Arc 2000 has an indoor pool, sauna, kids pool, and fitness room. Its apartments can accommodate groups of between 4 and 16 people, and all of them are very spacious with open log fires and well-appointed kitchens. The Chalet des Neiges – La Source des Arcs is another excellent 5-star residence in Arc 2000, with an indoor swimming pool and fitness room and is only a couple of minutes’ walk from the lifts and pistes. The 5-star Résidence & Spa Les Sources de Marie just down the mountain in super-smart Arc 1950, has a swimming pool and spa. Résidence Prestige Odalys Edenarc is in Arc 1800 but is very similar in size and style to the residences in Arc 1950 because it was built by EdenArc. L’Oree des Cimes in family-friendly Peisey-Vallandry is similarly luxurious and well-equipped.
One notch down from these in price and facilities is the Skissim Premium – Résidence Chalets Altitude & Ours 5* in Arc 2000 which consistently gets good customer ratings.

Staying in Bourg-St-Maurice and Peisey-Nancroix
“Bourg” is a valley town, not a ski resort, but it’s only 7 minutes away from Arc 1600 via the funicular railway, and it’s a useful transport hub with buses leaving every day for other nearby resorts like Val d’Isere, Tignes and La Rosiere. Accommodation is cheaper here. Simple guesthouses/pensions for skiers include Base Camp Lodge and the Bed End Breakfast du Centre. There are also inexpensive hotels like the 2-star Arolla which is within walking distance of the funicular. There are countless simple self-catering apartments to rent but there is also affordable luxury if you want it. The apartments in Coeur d’Or are within walking distance of the funicular railway and have an in-house swimming pool and sauna.
The old village of Peisey, sometimes called Peisey-Nancroix, is about 6km from Bourg St Maurice and lies below the high-altitude purpose-built resorts of Plan Peisey and Vallandry. There are no pistes coming down to the old village but it has a basic bucket ski lift called “Lonzagne” which connects it to Plan Peisey: the top station is located next to the Vanoise Express. UK travel agent Alpine Answers has a small selection of chalet holidays in Peisey Nancroix. But you can also book self-catered chalets and apartments directly. Chalet Honora is a self-catered chalet within walking distance of this lift, as is the one-bedroom apartment La Lonzagne.
