Plagne 1800 accommodation is mainly chalets and hotels, which influences the entertainment you can find here. That said, there are still good bars and restaurants – just not in the same abundance as nearby Plagne Centre. Plagne 1800 architecture is more typical of an Alpine resort. Getting to Centre is easy by shuttle bus – on the same route linking Plagne Bellecôte to Centre. In terms of lifts, connections are limited and queues are likely most mornings at the Mélézes chair (to Centre) and the 1800 chair (to Aime 2000). Similarly, runs back at the end of the day can get crowded. Visit the iRide / LaPlagne360 YouTube channel for more info.
Similar to the other La Plagne stations, Plagne 1800 has its own vibe and personality – dictated by the guests that stay here. This sector is popular with families so nightlife is lower key than in some of the other stations – although good nights can still be had here. In fact, the biggest drawback of 1800 is the sun sets early on the terraces and the morning lift queues can be big during the holidays – get out early.
It’s also worth bearing in mind, La Plagne offers a regular bus service between all the main stations at night – so a trip to another village is always possible if you tire of the local scene.
