My Google mojo is weak.

Do they actually have hotels in Flaine?


Not really, no.

Low-end ones are fine.


Well, OK, there's the Aujon. Heartily unreccomended by 80% of people
who stay there. It's not that bad actually, but many brits find the
food and ambiance a bit too, err, bugdet French club hotel-like. Which
isn't that surprising.

I can
find appartments and might well rent one but I'd like a little choice.
Looking for a single room only, around mid Jan probably if everything
comes together.


But fortunately there is hope. The one place I would recommend is the
Chalet Cascades. A five-minute walk across the snow from Flaine Forum,
doing B&B or half-board as you like, and not rigidly stuck with
Sat-Sat bookings which you will find almost anywhere else.

Stayed there a few times, including once when Champ joined us for a
long weekend there. Basic, but clean and welcoming.
