Overview

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly base in Les Deux Alpes, this hotel is just the thing for a simple, social stay. You’ll get a private room, which ditches the frills while covering all the basics, and has a modern look with bold pops of colour. And when you’re not out on the slopes or hitting the hay, you can get the drinks in at the bar or head to the games room for a bit of friendly competition.

When it’s time to get your goggles on, the Vallée Blanche chairlift is a couple of minutes’ walk away – and if you’re just starting out, the nursery slopes are only a little further along the main street. Plus, the ski shuttle bus stops opposite the hotel, so wherever your alpine adventures have taken you in town, you can hop on and be dropped back by your door.

About Les Deux Alpes

Les Deux Alpes skiing

Les Deux Alpes is a very popular resort with the Brits. It boasts the largest glacier in Europe (at 3568m)allowing for year round skiing. The biggest attraction for boarders and freestyle skiers, and those that like a bit of pro spotting, is the world class snowpark found at the Jandri mid-station during the winter, and up on the glacier during the summer. Beginners and intermediates are well catered for with some nice motorway pistes. Advanced skiers should head to the La Fee area for testing black runs and to nearby La Grave for some of the best off-piste around.

Anywhere with its own 200km ski area should be on the serious skier's to-do list.

Les Deux Alpes ski resort

The resort itself is quite large and spread out, it does have a very good range of shops and restaurants, plus varied and lively apres ski & nightlife. For non skiers, the hamlet of Venosc with its craft shops and cute eateries is walkable when there's not too much snow, or can be reached by cable car. Childcare is very good, so families are welcomed.

Overall, a lively resort and very popular with the young freestyle crowd and their followers, with La Grave and the glacier particular pluses and Grenoble Airport only 90 minutes away. A great resort if you're on a budget, but with some popular high end choices too. You're guaranteed a fun time in Deux Alpes!
