Very nice place for a large group, enjoyed the food and the facilities.
We stayed in chalet Marmotte for 4 days, when we visited Champagny for a ski break.
Communication with the owner was great, with a lot of information provided in advance as well as a lot of options given (buy our ski passes for us with a small discount per pass as well, food choices, ski lessons, airport transfer).
The chalet manager also contacted us separately to provide information and ask if we had any special requirements.
The chalet is part of a complex of several other properties it shares some of the facilities (sauna, swimming pool, game room). It is in a quite neighborhood, approximately 400 meters from the gondola that connects Champagny with the rest of La Plagne. Unfortunately it is fairly uphill to get to the gondola but the chalet team ahs made an arrangement with a ski hire location next to the lift for the customers to leave their shoes there.
The place has 20 beds in total but it gets very tight if all the beds are occupied. Also the rooms in reality are 7 with 2 of them being family rooms with a mezzanine space above the main room with 4 and 2 extra beds respectively. These are great for kids but if the group has more than 7 couples, sleeping arrangements can be made complicated.
The team that hosted us and sorted the breakfast and dinner were really polite, professional and enthusiastic about hosting us. They made every effort to please us and made our stay enjoyable. Breakfast could have more variety and quantity but the team there made extra effort to accommodate us once we pointed that out. Dinner was really good with 3 courses that were different every day and some special arrangements for a toddler in the group.
Overall a really nice time, definitely would recommend it for a large group, especially if there are families with kids. If the group is more than 16-18 adults with several couples, it might be worth combining it with one of the other smaller properties in the complex.
