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,
Getting fit for skiing

I ached all over for two days after tuesday and I think I'm quite fit :shock:
my forearms hurt the most which was from going up the draglift about 50 times and hanging on for dear life, whereas mr-a must've been hanging on in a different way because it was his groin that hurt the most.
It's back to yoga for me, I felt that the most important factor on a board was balance. While I was actually boarding I felt like I wasn't using any muscles. I know I must be wrong but that's how it felt.
