Overview

This hotel has stylish sophistication written all over it – think live piano music in the bar, swanky décor and top-notch facilities. It's right in the centre of the resort, sharing the same building as the equally chic Residence Alexane. The Grand Massif Express gondola's a little further away, but there's a free hotel shuttle that'll whisk you right there.

Les Suites d'Alexane was designed with the mountains in mind, but not just the Alps – you'll find corners with influences from the Himalayas, Rockies and even as far as the Andes. From cow print patchwork and pebble stone walls to tartan curtains and faux fur bedspreads, every room's an eclectic mix of modern alpine style. The sleek 1,000m² spa area will allow you to relax here, whether it's looking out at the slopes from the heated indoor pool or lying back on a lounger next to the Himalayan salt wall.

About Samoëns

With the recent arrival of Club Med, Samoëns has been transformed from a charming, if sleepy corner of the Grand Massif ski area to one of the Alps' go to destinations.

Just an hour from Geneva airport, yet this resort gives you access to high-altitude skiing with over 250km of mostly tree-lined pistes. A great variety of slopes mean that all levels are catered for. The village still oozes Alpine charm, with a gondola link whisking you directly to the main ski area that starts from 1600m. Links to Flaine, Morillon and Les Carroz mean there's always somewhere new to explore.

The village even has the honour of being an official historical monument. Away from the slopes, if you're looking for clubs and pubs, this isn't the place. Instead, you'll find plenty of restaurants serving excellent local dishes.

Overall, Samoëns is a good little spot to know about: the skiing is great, challenging and varied. Very unusually for a resort of this size, Geneva's just an hour or so away and facilities for kids are excellent.
