Just seen your post to Jeurgen re. Pamps on 18th.
I stayed in the Elina last year (my first year skiing) and it was good, rooms were good and warm. It was a bit quiet but the centre is only a short taxi ride away. You are dead handy for ski depot No. 1, it was only a 10 minute walk away. I'm going with my two daughters on 18th with Jeurgen (John) flying from bristol and staying in the Snezhanka. Its gonna be brill.....hope you have a good time.

Thanks folks. Quiet and close to slopes sounds good to me, that's what we liked about Markoni. Be a shame if we have to go down to depot 2, I was hoping to just walk down instead of waiting for bus, last year the boys and I were getting a run in before lessons started.
