Have just re-read what I typed, I dont mean unless I knew every-one in the cabin I could break wind I meant that I just could not do a chalet holiday. Just to make things clear

Well I like hotels in certain places, eg Mayrhofen and much of Austria, and some chalets are clearly not too great, but if you get a nice chalet in a great ski in/out spot, I dont think you can have a better time.
I dont want to cook, and eating out can now cost a fair bit, and its fun in a group to have a place, and i also enjoy meeting new people and sharing experiences.
We did our first chalet last Jan in St Anton, and will continue to do it again every year now I think, although I wont rule out hotels, for example in Ischgl where I want to go.

I prefer chalets. They feel a lot more casual and homely and, like tony said, it's really fun to share experiences at the end of the day.
I would do either though,

Boring, loud people who like nothing better then listening to their own voices ....... come on you must of come across a few on your chalet holidays
