Nice, very friendly staff but the hotel itself needs a face-lift. The 3-bed room was small and the curtains shabby.The free hotel minibus to the nearby lifts works well. The pool is very nice after a day on the slopes, as is the sauna, which wasn't always turned on. The breakfasts are good and we were encouraged to take some... More

A lovely, clean, friendly hotel. The staff are really helpful and there is a lovely feeling to the hotel. Rooms are not huge, but are well equipped and clean, with nice bathrooms and fluffy towels. Reception can arrange for a minibus transfer to the lifts in the morning and the skibus stops close by in the evening. The skiing in... More

Arrived to find the car park full and people fighting over spaces. Waited a long time for anyone to appear at reception to book us in. friendly service once someone did appear. The outside photos make ug look like the hotel stands on it's own whereas it's in the middle of a busy street. The pool pictures also do nit... More

This is a 3 star hotel. There was no internet access in the room. We were told at reception that there would be internet in the garden (!). We tried, to no avail. We sat at the bar after checking in at around 6pm for 10-15 min on a Saturday, there was no staff. The towels in the bathroom were... More

Have stayed here about 5 times now and always found the staff helpful, rooms nice and the food reasonable. Nice indoor pool and steam room that at other places would cost to use but free here. Wi-fi also works in the room which is good.

We used the key-operated safe in the room. Quite definitely money was stolen during the day we were out since we placed an exact amount in there with passports etc. Not everything, which would have been blatant, but 150 Euros was taken. The desk clerk (who gave us the key the night before) was disinterested and claimed there was no... More

This is a pretty good base for skiing and walking if you have a car. The rooms are better than many hotels although avoid ones facing the road or with inter-connecting doors. The buffet breakfast is OK for a few days but would be improved with better quality OJ, coffee etc. The bar is good with wifi and the most... More

Hotel Du Bois was a perfect base for our group of 8 friends of mixed ski-ing ability indulging on a 4 day 30th Birthday celebration. Despite the immediate resort of Les Houches remaining closed during our stay, we took the opportunity to explore the early season resorts of Argentiere and Comayeur (Italy) which are both accessible by a short drive....
