I went with a friend for a late season ski weekend. The price was very low when compared to other available hotels from Chamonix to Merebel. The room was comfortable, big enough for two for the long weekend. The restaurant is tasty and the menu similar to many local restaurants. Good wine list. Great cheap, "local" wines. The owner was...

Rooms were a good size, for the Alps, and the staff friendly. The ski boot room, games room, tv/Internet room, bar and swimming pool were all in reasonable order. I like that the hotel is family owned and run, not corporate. Location is good for transport links and the local skiing (2 bus stops away) is varied, picturesque (mostly tree... More

We stayed here with our teenager daughter on our way back from Tuscany. Our quadruple room was large but the bathroom was tiny. We were charged €153 which when we compared it to the quality we got staying at other hotels was very under par. Whole hotel needs a refurb, yes it has a swimming pool, yes the bathroom was... More

We booked this on Bastille Day evening last minute and got a great rate. 20% of rack rate if you book online. Our room "quadruple" was very clean, very spacious with a separate bedroom, kitchenette, dining area, plenty of storage, good sized fridge, enclosed breakfast terrace that opened to the balcony and comfortable beds (one double and two twins). Kitchen... More

Having stayed for two days I found this a charming, efficient and comfortable hotel. The staff were unfailingly polite and helpful and the amenities are good: there is an indoor swimming pool, a sauna and my room had a wonderful view across the mountains. It is also very good value for money, I booked it through Expedia and it was... More

After reading a couple of poor reviews on here we were in 2 minds whether to book up but the price was right and we decided to take the risk. We were very pleased we did. On first impressions you walk in and their little swimming pool is the first thing you notice followed by neat, tidy and welcoming reception.... More

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend ski trip. Facilities were ok but nothing special. The room was spacious but the bed was very uncomfortable and the bedding had seen better days. The pillows in particular were appalling. The sofa in the living area was also very uncomfortable. The owners were fairly helpful. The breakfast was ok, not... More

We arrived at the hotel early and were let into to our room which was good but the corridor outside smelt vile and despite the no smoking policy, we had a strange glass balcony in which we shared the 'air' with the next door inhabitants. They used it as their smoking area so they might as well have smoked in... More
