Local knowledge

Book restaurant and ski class reservations directly with staff (Atef and Julia recommended) rather than making independent arrangements—they will handle all details end-to-end.
Request a larger room if available; smaller rooms are cramped despite being nicely appointed.
Ski service team at the hotel is exceptional; coordinate with them for daily equipment needs and mountain logistics.
