    Amazing location, functional ski apartments.
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • One-Bedroom Apartment (5 Adults)
    • Stayed 7 nights

    Walls are very thin- so you can hear everything next door, above, etc. Everything is very very worn down in the apartments. Nothing has been renovated since they were built most likely. Looks better from the outside than the inside. Like a hostel- apartment type of hotel. It's a bit expensive for what it is but again, it's ski season, amazing location and Val d'isere, so that's how it rolls. Wifi was fine except for peak times..which happens.

    The location is the main point of this ski hotel. Not luxury or super nice but functional. The apartments are big enough though and we were comfortable. The staff was great- very nice and friendly. Ask for a high room as drunk rowdy kids usually stumble out of the night club on the ground floor and take the first few levels of the hotel. Cleaning happens only every few days but it was fine for us.

    The dishwasher from the previous people hadn’t been put on so dishes were still dirty. There wasn’t enough wine glasses. The shower didn’t drain quick enough.

    very good value for money and ideal for what we needed fantastic location near to the slopes, shops and restaurants great shower pressure and sized bathroom

    Great location and lovely family holiday but the property was poor.
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Two-Bedroom Apartment (9 Adults)
    • Stayed 7 nights
    • Submitted from a mobile device

    One of the showers didn’t work and there was mold in the bathroom and one of the doors to the bedrooms didn’t close. The resort was difficult to get in touch with before arrival as you reach a central switchboard that doesn’t have direct contact with the actual property. When we arrived we were lucky that someone let us in and told us the codes!!! Otherwise we would have been stuck in the snow for hours. Also it’s right on the high street which means it is noisy.

    The location is amazing and the apartment was perfect for the family and they had a good size ski room and luggage storage for early arrival/late departure. Towels were changed during the week.

    Apartment was not well cleaned and it was noisy due to bars below but this was a trade off for being in good central location. Kitchen was not well equipped. Dogs were allowed in neighbouring flats - noisy.

    location great very central bed comfy. Staff very helpful when they were there. All neighbours were friendly

    lack of maintenance. bathroom was very tired with dangerous cracked tiles and towel rail not working. Unfortunately we have since learnt that it’s got a reputation for young, noisy groups.

    Decor is a little dated and generally the apartment didn’t feel super clean. We were a little disappointed at the price we paid for the quality/cleanliness of the apartment, however we did stay over new year so it’s possible we paid a premium.

    Location was great. Apartment was spacious and well equipped.

    We expected a studio apartment for 5 persons - ie with 3 bedrooms - we had 1 bedroom and a living room with 3 single beds - all next Ito each other, this was ok for our family of 3 (2 adults and 1 teenager) but any more persons would have been uncomfortable for us. 1 bathroom, 1 separate WC - non en suite.

    Accommodation was fantastic - very central location Bedroom could have been bigger - Kitchen had all the necessary to dine in...inc dishwasher, oven, microwave and fridge overall good value for money

    Property was tired with broken lamps, pans, hooks. Carpet dirty. Be prepared for noise after midnight as bars finish below the property. Sofa beds not very comfy.

    Great location and good price for a lovely week in Val D’Isere. Lovely sunny balcony with view of the mountain. Lots of hot water and comfy pillows. Good ski and boot room Underground car park.

    it’s tired and needs money spending on room as bits of wardrobes falling off. Not enough mugs or wine glasses when we arrived. no dish cloth or washing up liquid when arrived. it had not enough basic essential things an apartment for that price should have. staff did give us extra mugs etc when we asked. the outside facade beautiful but worse than a youth hostel inside, not happy.
