Search hotels in Val Thorens

High altitude, snow sure ski resort. For young children it's ideal, because so many of the hotels are truly ski-in - ski-out, avoiding the hassle to trying to get little kids to carry skis very far. We started here with a 4 yr old and on day 2 he was able to ski down to the ski-school. Beware of the altitude though as it does take a day or two to get used to it and the air is very dry. Hotels on the piste side of Rue Soleil would be recommended, as they back out straight onto the nursery slopes so it's extremely easy to get out and get to ski-school. Val Thorens lacks though some in-town early apres-ski, so if you don't want to ski back from Folie Douce or 360 then there doesn't seem to be much live music / atmosphere early on. Cafe Snesko is good live music and while we took young kids in there from about 6-7.30, it might not be suitable later. Plenty of good restaurant choices across all budgets.

Val Thorens is an amazing ski and snowboard place. Hotels are super close to the slopes. Lifts are super luxe. Almost no lines. Slopes were good (even in warm april), good for snowboarding as well. A few green slopes which are annoying for snowboarders but enough red to enjoy yourself! Skipasses are expensive tho.

Val Thorens is an incredible ski resort with great facilities, bars and restaurants. If you want some of the best views and skiing in the world book yourself a trip there and enjoy a great dinner at 2 Lac restaurant on the slopes with a taxi ride there and back in a priest basher. Awesome.

The resort is a nice size and beautifully located high up in the Alps. Restaurants and bars are all good but expensive. Plenty to do and see and lots of accommodation options. Loved La Cabene restaurant and also The Scandinavian Wine Bar. The Red Fox pub was a find too and not very crowded. The Igloo is worth a visit for a few photos. We did the evening Cosmojet Taboggan run and I would not recommend for children under 14 years. It's very long and it's very tiring! Caution....We booked Swiss Taxi (also Connecto Transfers) for our airport transfer. They cancelled five minutes before pick up and we all missed our flights home Book a local return transfer to the airport.

Amazing range of runs and off piste skiing/boarding for all experience levels, particularly intermediate and advanced. Easy access to the whole of the 3 valleys ski area served by a superb lift infrastructure. Interconnecting runs for 3 valleys are relatively challenging and very busy, not suitable for beginners. Good range of activities, restaurants and shops. Our boys loved the sports centre for table tennis and the activity park with its inflatables, trampolines and foam pit! When the weather and snow are good Val Thorens and the 3 Valleys are hard to beat!

Wonderful mountain scenery. Plenty of pistes and lifts but TOO many skiers. The resort itself is rather a concrete/timber-clad jungle without much charm but it is well-served by numerous shops and cafes.
