Option 1 - Self-Catering.
5-STAR APARTMENTS.
You’ll be staying at the CGH Le Cristal de l’Alpe 5-star apartment resort. We selected this residence for its ideal location (right on the Tour de France route to the summit and very close to the official finish) but also for its superb facilities including a fitness room, an indoor pool, sauna, steam room and hot tub - ideal for soaking tired muscles after a long day in the saddle.
superb facilities.
With a pool, hot tub, sauna, steam room and fitness, the CGH Le Cristal de l’Alpe 5-star is the ideal base for your cycling adventure.
Choose to share an apartment (all apartments have a spacious lounge and two bedrooms, some have three, a very small number have 4 or 5), whilst still enjoying the space afforded by your own private bedroom and bathroom, or for a supplement, book your own apartment.
For total peace of mind, you will be able to store your bike in your apartment. Most riders choose to put them on the balcony but some keep them in the entrance hall or even in the lounge!
There is a sizeable and well-stocked mini supermarket (Carrefour Montagne - open 7am-9pm daily) within the residence where you can find everything for breakfast (including fresh breads and croissants, pains au chocolat of course) making lunches; dinners, drinks, cereal bars, etc.
