Situated in Les Deux Alpes, La Mansio de Bons has a garden, shared lounge, bar, and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is set 39 km from Galibier.

Guests at the hostel can enjoy a buffet breakfast. We loved staying in Bons and at La Mansio. It's very close to Les Deux Alpes and soooooo much quieter and very quaint. I didn't realize how nice it would be to go somewhere quiet after a busy day at the resorts. The staff and accommodations at Le Mansio were all superb for the pricepoint (quite cheap compared to any other resort in the alps). I would highly recommend it!

Located in Châtel in the Rhône-Alps Region, 200 metres from TS DE Super Châtel Ski Lift and a 5-minute drive from the Swiss border, Central Hostel Chatel is a youth hostel situated on top of a bar, featuring a sun terrace and views of the mountains. The property is a 3-minute walk from an aquatic wellness centre. Unlike most surrounding accommodations, this one does not charge you extra for anything (linens, towels, etc. are included)! The location is perfect - 5 min away from Super Chatel lift and next to the shuttle stop (if you ever need it). The accommodation is clean, has everything you need, and most importantly, the host (Tomas) is amazing!!! Super friendly and responsive, makes it easy to check in even at midnight!
