Résidence Pierre & Vacances Premium Arc 1950 Le Village

Les Arcs

The accommodation was very old and tired.  The reception area had a sad unused fireplace and a smell of sewage.  The corridor had wallpaper hanging off the walls and when we mention this to the reception team it was stuck back on with cellotape.  The apartment that we were put in (and paid a lot of money for) was spacious enough but the furniture was very old and uncomfortable, definitely not suited to spending any time relaxing in the apartment.  The kitchen was tiny and there was no draining board or work surface next to the sink - just straight onto the induction hob.  Impossible to prepare anything but the most basic food which was a shame as that was one of our reasons for going self catering.  It was advertised as having a balcony but all the doors to the balconies were locked as apparently they are ‘unsafe’.  We did complain and the lady on reception was very pleasant but she was not able to do anything other than offer us a bigger apartment at an additional premium (but of the same or similar quality).  We turned this down as paying an additional €450 on top of what we had already paid for the holiday felt like throwing good money after bad.  
The building itself is a maze of illogical corridors and lifts.  To get to our apartment we had to either take two separate staircases or lifts.  To get to the ‘included’ pool or a working hot tub we had to use 3 different staircases/lifts and it involved a fairly hefty walk in cold corridors.  The hottub that was in our actual building was broken (no jets) and was kept lukewarm.  The spa facility (sauna and hammam) in the building was new and in good condition.  
We’ve rented apartments in several ski resorts before for a lower cost (La Ros, Tignes, Avoriaz, Trysil) that were significantly better than this.  The specific building we were allocated (apparently you can’t choose) was Hameau de Glacier.  I would avoid like the plague.  It’s definitely more of a 2/3 star experience as opposed to the 4 star advertised. 
On the plus side, the apartment was clean and the beds were ok.  The resort is well placed in the ski area although loses the sun in the afternoon and stays shady until mid morning.  We were lucky with snow and weather and had a great week other than the time we had to spend inside the apartment.  We booked via Crystal ski rather than direct.  Perhaps that was part of the problem and the reps were not able to do anything about the poor accommodation whilst we were there.

Very tired accommodation - rubbish for self catering

1950 is a great location and the apartments are definitely more comfortable and better equipped than your average French ski resort but beware if you are situated close to the O’Chaud bar you will get no sleep!

The bar has a DJ every night playing incredibly loud music until 2am, this is proudly announced on the animations schedule for the village so happens all the time it seems.  We were glad in the end that we weren’t staying the full week….

The layout of the buildings is quite confusing when you first arrive, it would be good to know in advance where your apartment is as we and quite a few others had to wander village to find our building then the corridors for a while trying to find the building reception.

Again apartments are quite comfortable but rather dark and the balconies are all locked off for safety reasons which is a shame.

I would return but only if I could guarantee a location away from late night bar.
