Chalet Hellebore

Chalet Hellebore is a catered chalet in La Plagne, sleeping 8. It sits in the resort centre, which puts the shops, the bars and the Christmas market on the doorstep rather than at the end of a bus ride. Cots and family rooms are available, which is the detail that decides it for anyone travelling with small children. It has a hot tub and a sauna. In the last week of December the afternoons are short and everybody comes in cold, which is when an outdoor hot tub stops being a luxury and earns its place.

We have not published a Christmas Snow Score for La Plagne yet — its altitude figures are still being verified, and the resort page says exactly which ones.

8 beds is the classic family or small-group size. Being catered, nobody spends Christmas Day in the kitchen, which is the single strongest argument for a chalet over an apartment in this particular week.

Check the bed configuration directly with the operator — how a chalet divides its beds matters more at Christmas than the headline number.
