Résidence Maison Fosson is a modern apartment complex with traditional Alpine style. The complex has a fantastic location at the foot of the blue slope. The studios and apartments all have a modern design with a flat-screen TV, a separate bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen. When you wake up, you can enjoy a cup of coffee taking in the beautiful views of the snowy mountains. Then simply head out your front door and you can start your day. There are also the option in the evening to go up and down with the ski lift. You will then arrive in the middle of Champoluc and there are several restaurants here.
Please note: This property is located on the slopes and can only be reached by the ski lift, which is located 175 metres from the complex. Because it is on a mountain, it is difficult to enter the village in the evening. The rides with the ski lift are not included in the lift pass and must be paid separately.
This accommodation is located by the slopes and can only be reached via the Crest gondola, which is 150 metres away from the complex. From 08:45 - 17:00, the gondola runs continuously, with the final gondola departing at 16:45. At check-in, you can leave your luggage at the gondola station, in the depot next to the departure point. Check-in takes place at Hotel Petit Tournalin, in the village. Its address is: Fr. Villy, 2, 11020 Champoluc AO. You can also buy gondola tickets there (for evening journeys) and it is possible to leave your car there.
The complex would like to know your arrival time, so that it can organise your check-in. This can be done by phone: tel. 0039- 125307530. It is recommended to bring manageable luggage, as it is a 100m walk from the gondola station to the complex.
As the complex is on a mountain, it is difficult to travel into the village in the evenings. Evening ski lift rides are not covered by the ski pass. The cost for this is €3.00 per person, per day. Evening times are as follows: 18:30, 19:30, 22:15, and 23:00 (subject to change).
Champoluc is an authentic Alpine village at an altitude of 1568 metres in the Ayas valley. The village is surrounded by pine trees, high mountain peaks, and glaciers, creating spectacular views.
