Why Sunday arrivals matter
Sunday arrivals align your week for a smoother start and fewer moving parts.
- Seamless ski‑pass pickup: When you book ski passes via the hotel, they’re ready at reception on arrival, so there’s no time lost before you hit the slopes.
- Settle in, then ski: Arriving on Sunday gives you time to unpack, relax on the sunny terrace, and be ready for your first ski day with everything in place.
- Signature dining built in: The All Inclusive schedule features a Savoyard raclette evening, so you’re guaranteed a taste of the region during your stay at the Chalet’s restaurant.
- Snow peace‑of‑mind: The All Inclusive includes snow‑guarantee cancellation insurance, and the hotel also offers a cancellation insurance pack across seasons for added flexibility.
- Ski‑close convenience: In good snow, you can ski via the Rocher piste to within 50 m of the hotel, and the Rocher drag‑lift is 100 m away—so your week is naturally optimized for more time on snow.
- Access to Valmorel’s heart: The hotel sits about 1.5 km from Valmorel’s pedestrian centre, placing restaurants, bars, and village life within easy reach.
Tip: Chalet Du Crey highlights always the best prices and flexible conditions, helping you plan your Sunday‑to‑Sunday (or Sunday‑to‑Friday) mountain time with confidence.
