Great location. Really close to the ski lifts - we could just walk out of the ski locker room and step onto the slope that leads down to the lifts. Plenty of shops, bars and restaurants within a very short walk. The hotel itself was great value for money - an endless supply of food and drink all included in the room rate. Breakfast was a huge buffet with pastries, fruit, cereal, yoghurt, eggs, bacon, breads, cooked meats, etc. You could make your own packed lunch during the breakfast buffet or return to the hotel for buffet lunch in the main restaurant or lunch in the adjoining Le Petit Zinc restaurant for burgers, paninis and salads (no need to take of ski boots in here). The hotel then provided crepes and waffles in the bar at 5pm before evening buffet from 7pm. You could also pre-book a slot one evening in the Petit Zinc giving an a la carte menu or an evening of raclette/fondue in Le Mont Blanc restaurant. The only issue was the lack of labeling of the food. As a vegetarian I struggled to identify if things contained meat or not and there wasn't a great deal of choice for me (vegans would really struggle). The bar was fantastic. It serves hot drinks, beers, wines, cocktails, spirits and soft drinks and was open until 10.30pm - giving plenty of drinking time before you either went out to other venues or retired to bed. There was live music in the bar for entertainment. Rooms are pretty basic, but clean. We didn't use the pool or spa as you had to pay extra for this.
