Come on Rose please do not keep me in suspense.....spill the beans :shock: :shock:

100 french students who rampaged the hotel night after night, slamming doors, screaming all night, throwing up every-where. Because after midnight the hotel was without staff. I wanted to come home on the Tuesday. We reported it to the owners who did have a word with them, but made no difference. Could'nt report it to the Rep as she had done a bunk on the first night of the holiday. Did get a partial refund from TO for next holiday. Thats why I enjoy Seefeld so much, none of that and the hotel we stay at all the rooms are sound proofed so completely quiet at night.

Really hot down here last weekend but not brilliant here this weekend, in fact quite chilly this afternoon.

With VT, that building style seems predominant, so it is a fairly good bet that there will be more noisy behaviour, than say a small traditional mountain village with b&b's and houses converted into apartments. In the case of VT, the marketing suggested up market and smart in glowing terms, however my experience there firmed up my view that it does not matter what you call a turd, it still stinks.
Mr Admin Sir, do I get a prize for the best thread hijack this week :D

When I see places with purpose built apartments, I tend to turn the page and look elsewhere. Its very much why I prefer Austria generally.

Ian - I like a bit of apres ski, but dont go in for getting blotto. Its a fun end to a day to have a couple of beers in a lively happy atmosphere, before having a civilised dinner and some nice wine.

Me too, I much prefer the quiter places. Mind you it can still happen in Austria, my first ever ski trip in Austria was the worst hotel experience ever. Which was a shame as it was a lovely hotel.
