Situated in Les Deux Alpes, La Mansio de Bons has a garden, shared lounge, bar, and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is set 39 km from Galibier.

Guests at the hostel can enjoy a buffet breakfast. We loved staying in Bons and at La Mansio. It's very close to Les Deux Alpes and soooooo much quieter and very quaint. I didn't realize how nice it would be to go somewhere quiet after a busy day at the resorts. The staff and accommodations at Le Mansio were all superb for the pricepoint (quite cheap compared to any other resort in the alps). I would highly recommend it!

The accommodation offers a ski pass sales point and ski-to-door access, as well as a bar and barbecue facilities. The accommodation features evening entertainment and free WiFi.

A continental breakfast is available at the hostel. Auberge de Jeunesse HI Serre- Chevalier was an amazing stay! Technicalities - everything was great! The rooms were clean and had bathroom facilities, the location was great (you can reach a ski lift within a very short walk), and breakfast and dinner were also both included in my booking, making my stay very convenient. Notably, all the staff were very kind and happy to chat, as well as help me in any way getting to know the area/public transport/about the slopes which I really appreciated, especially being my first time skiing! The communal dining area was also nice and made for a nice space to chat with other guests, and added to the overall social atmosphere of the hostel. Overall- this was a really fantastic stay and I would definitely love to come back !!😊😊😊

A continental breakfast is available at the hostel. At Auberge de Jeunesse HI La Clusaz you will find a restaurant serving French and international cuisine. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options can also be requested. As always, these youth hostels are super nice, cosy and the staff is friendly, helpful. Its a great thing that you can meet a lot like-minded people here (cyclists, hikers, runners, bikers). I never thought Id like hostels but I really do!
