The Lo Soli has a very nice communal living room and kitchen. The chalet girl and food side of things were fantastic.

Location: where is Chalet Lo Soli

Excellent value chalet in quiet, convenient location. Skiing virtually to and from the doorstep. Le Laisinant 6-man express chairlift only approx. 1 minutes' walk (70m). Ski-bus stop just 100m

Overview: chalet description: Chalet Lo Soli description

Chalet Lo Soli has proved a hugely popular addition to our programme, full of character and charm, occupying a traditional 16th century building set amongst the pretty stone cottages of Le Laisinant.

The chalet enjoys an absolutely ideal location, with a blue piste from the Solaise running just behind the chalet, on which you can ski to the resort centre and ski-lifts in a few minutes, and ski back home on the same run at the end of the day. Even more convenient is the 6-man Le Laisinant high-speed chairlift just 70m from your door.

The bus-stop is very close too, only 100m away, for the short hop into the centre of Val d’Isère, which is otherwise only approximately 10 minutes’ walk away.

The beamed kitchen/dining-room, with its long old wooden table, provides the perfect setting for relaxed chalet dining, whilst the spacious lounge has an open fire and several old traditional farming implements on the walls, adding to the chalet’s ambience.

Meals: Chalet Lo Soli food & drink

We set very high standards for our cuisine, and train our staff extensively before the season starts, to ensure that you will thoroughly enjoy every meal on your holiday with us. We also take our Health and Safety responsibilities extremely seriously, so all our chalet and Chalet Hotel staff involved in food preparation are trained to the City & Guilds qualification – Level 2 in Food Safety during the pre-season training course. There is a continental breakfast is every morning and a breakfast hot option, afternoon tea and evening dinners are provided for six days of the week in both chalets and Chalet Hotels.

Breakfast

A good breakfast is essential on a ski holiday, so we provide both a hot option, as well as a continental selection with a choice of cereals or porridge, fruit juices, plentiful tea, coffee and bread (and croissants in France), cold meats, cheese and preserves, which is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself. On our staff day off, only the continental breakfast will be provided.

Afternoon Tea

The traditional ‘welcome home’ after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff day off. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready.

Children's High Tea

In chalets and Chalet Hotels with family guests, High Tea provides children under 11 years with a healthy menu, tailored more towards children’s tastes and puréed food is available for infants on request. High Tea is at 5.30pm, and children do not join the main adult-only dinner.

Dinner in Chalets

In the evenings our hosts will cook you a three-course adult only meal six nights a week. This starts with a glass of prosecco followed by an appetiser, main course and dessert – with unlimited complimentary red, white and rosé wine during service! There is also an option for vegetarians, please warn us in advance.

One of these meals will be a regional meal with the menu depending on which country you are staying in.

On the staff one night off per week just a continental breakfast is provided and it’s a great opportunity for you to experience some local restaurants in your resort. Speak to your resort representative for recommendations and help with reservations.

Vegetarian and Special Diets

Vegetarian options are available in our properties – just advise us at time of bookings so that we can ensure that our staff can prepare. Other special diets can generally be catered for at a cost of £35 per person per week. Any dietary requirements must be advised to us at the time of booking in order for us to be fully prepared. Our Chalet Hosts will discuss your dietary requirements with you upon arrival to the chalet or Chalet Hotel.

Christmas and New Year

All of our chalets and Chalet Hotels will serve a traditional Christmas dinner with a glass of Champagne to start off the evening. This will include roast turkey with all of the trimmings, Christmas pudding, mince pies, crackers and party hats plus a fantastic Alpine atmosphere in which to enjoy the day.

A special festive menu will also be served on New Year’s Eve, alongside the added bonus that many resorts put on fantastic firework displays. A glass of fizz, whilst watching fireworks over the snow-capped peaks of the Alps.. what better way to bring in the New Year!

Our Quality Wines

We are very proud of our wine selection for chalets and Chalet Hotels, which combines crisp and fruity whites with medium to full-bodied reds, for a variety of palates. We select our wines in conjunction with our good friends Nicolas and Véronique – the third generation in the Perret family’s fine wine business based in the Savoie. Nicolas is a qualified wine expert, having trained at the prestigious Burgundy Wine University in Beaune. Each season in October, Nicolas & Véronique bring over a new selection for us to sample (someone has to do it!) and together we choose our wines for the coming season, based on our menus and their pure enjoyment factor. Wine is an incredibly subjective and emotive subject, however, the feedback we have received from our guests over recent seasons endorses our aims of providing wines to enhance your meal and to suit most tastes. We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do!

We update Chalet Lo Soli's details often, but facilities do change. e.g. some extras listed by the supplier as "free" or included might only be for the first time you use them, or for one time per party, then charged for further use. If any specific feature is essential to your holiday, make sure you ask us to confirm the details of it before you book your holiday.

In France's Rhone Alp region, Val d'Isere (pronounced: val de saire/sare/ser or val d sere) is widely thought of as one of the most brilliant and beautiful ski areas in the world. In keeping with the giddyingly gorgeous surroundings, the resort itself is one of France's prettiest - a huddle alpine hamlets formed from cosy wood and stone chalets. With the original village dating back to the 13th century and a Christmas-card-worthy church steeple at its centre, there’s alpine charm by the bucket load. While dre...
Skiers in Val d'Isere are schussing in the tracks of some of the world's greatest skiers. Olympic medallists Marielle and Christine Goitschel learned to ski here, not to mention triple gold winner Jean-Claude Killy, after whom the wider ski area is named. As an indication of this place's premier status - the resort has hosted championships including the 1992 Olympics, the World Alpine Ski Championships in 2009 and World Cup events every December. If some of the best skiers in history have learned here, begi...
Famed for its après ski, there's no chance of a dull evening in Val. Living up to its name, you'll experience ‘sweet madness' at the original Le Folie Douce, which brings you some of the best après ski in Europe - including dancers, musicians, raining champagne and much more... Once that closes, Dicks T Bar's a local legend, staying open into the early hours each night. Bananas is another firm favourite, much loved for its crafty cocktails and slope-side location. In Val d'Isere's 90-something restaurants, ...

"Worn but charming, with room for improvement"

Anon, East Sussex
4/ out of 5
It’s a little on the scruffy side, but my wife and I found it charming! The upstairs was very good from the point of view of the ambiance; there’s a fantastic large seating area. The furniture was a little tired and worn but there were sufficient sofas for everyone staying there, whereas some chalets have insufficient seating areas. The sofas could certainly do with renewing, but they should definitely maintain the number of them. They would do well to improve the toilets and look at putting in some more – one was in the boot room and the other was near the bedrooms. The bathroom with a bath definitely has sufficient room for a toilet, they should put one in there. I guess we had the nicest bedroom, it had lovely old timbers and a double bed and ensuite bathroom. We peered into the other rooms and they were quite basic. There’s a nice open large kitchen with a big dining area. The food was ample and the nice young lady who was waiting to go to university was great. It’s not cordon bleu dining but after a day on the slopes it was good. There was enough wine and we didn’t feel like there were any restrictions on it. The chalet has a nice situation but unfortunately the resort didn’t open the lift next to it while we were here. Overall my wife and I enjoyed the week.

The Lo Soli has a very nice communal living room and kitchen. The chalet girl and food side of things were fantastic. Val d’Isere wasn’t very good with keeping runs and lifts open (visited in January 2016), and as the run next to the chalet wasn’t open for the first 4 days, we ended up having to get the bus to the lifts. With everyone going into Solaise and La Daille it ended up being quite busy! We tended to get the bus to La Daille to go over to Tignes, where there are more runs and lifts open. Our bedroom was a bedroom – alright but not overly huge. It was next to the door but wasn’t too bad with people coming in and out. The chalet has a bit of an odd arrangement with the beds downstairs rather than up, and we couldn’t work out why they didn’t all have en-suites as there was definitely room for them. Some rooms had ensuite showers, but the chalet's 3 toilets were shared. There was one in the bathroom (which you obviously couldn’t use if someone was in the bathroom), and another down off the boot room which was a bit of a trek to get to so no-one really bothered. That left us with the one by the main entrance of the bedroom floor. When everyone was getting ready in the morning it was a bit of a hassle, and with plenty of room for more I don’t know why they only chose to have 3.
