We've been hiring equipment for the last 16 years, here's what our happy customers have to say about our service.
Our large group of 14 adults have used Tignes Spirit again this year after the very successful service we received from them last year.
They delivered to our Chalet and even when some of us needed different ski boots, as the first ones were not comfy, they happily changed them. Another member of our group was not happy with the condition of their boots after skiing in them and Tignes spirit happily came back out to the chalet to change them.
They also arrange prices on boots if you want to buy the ones you've hired which is great! I would use Tignes Spirit again if we come back again next year!
I booked a last minute trip to Tignes just after New Year with Alpine Elements, staying at the Hotel Hauts de Toviere.
I always hire equipment independent of the company I'm travelling with and so was very pleasantly surprised when I stumbled across the excellent reviews of this place as it was just across the road. Having hired from them, I can see why they're so well rated and would recommend them to anyone coming to Tignes - even if you're not staying in Lavachet.
They're a very short walk from one of the ski bus stops and will also deliver to your accommodation.
The staff are enthusiastic and well informed. The setting-up of my board was easily the most thorough I've had in about 6 trips of hiring equipment.
On what was supposed to be my first day of boarding, the entire ski-area was closed due to heightened avalanche risk, but Tom (?!) allowed me to borrow some safety equipment (padded shorts, wrist and back protectors) as a gesture of goodwill as a refund was not possible.
What's more, upon my return to the UK, I got a phone call from one of their staff checking that I was happy with my hire and the service I received.
If I head back to Tignes, I'll definitely be hiring from Tignes Spirit again. Thanks!
Beth sorted us out in the shop, she was awesome getting the workshop to fit bindings in new skis while we sorted lift passes.
He was very patient considering I couldn't decide on which boots were best for me - he's a credit to your shop!
I would highly recommend using Tignes spirit, reliable, knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. Made getting and returning our skis so easy! We would definitely use them again. Thanks.
Really helpful staff, offered great advice and the quality of gear was fantastic. We had our snowboard stolen (make sure you take their insurance and lock up your boards) and they were amazingly helpful. I have never had such a good service from a rental company.
Very helpful and knowledgeable service. I was amazed to be rented a brand new Burtom Custom (straight from the wrapper) with Burton Cartel bindings - both high end items. We were given a choice of equipment to suit our riding etc. The price was also unbeatable.
It was a breath of fresh air compared to queues and production line feeling you get from most rental shops. They also have an awesome selection of clothing and equipment for sale.
We went to Tignes for a day of skiing on the summer glacier. The store was able to give us all the gear we needed, even with only a couple of days notice. They were even flexible with when the shop opened to accommodate us!
These guys really looked after us. We pre-ordered online, were picked up from our hotel, taken to the shop and after getting the right fit for boots, knee pads, wrist guards, helmets etc were taken back to our hotel fully kitted out.
They were really patient, and happy to make any adjustments and changes throughout the week, and at the end of the week they picked up all the equipment from our chalet. Easy, fantastic and friendly! Thank you.
