With uninterrupted views of the forests and pistes, as one of Méribel’s original chalets, Loden is easily accessible on foot from the main resort and is also close to the slopes.
It is located in a delightfully tranquil and sunny spot on the eastern side of the mountain, tucked away up a winding pathway and a short but steep driveway. Ski access is around 150m to the blue Doron run, accessed via this same track. The Doron brings you down into the Chaudanne, Méribel’s main lift hub from which you can take the lifts in the direction of Courchevel or the Belleville Valley for Saint Martin, Les Menuires or Val Thorens.
For beginner skiers, we understand a blue run might be daunting but don’t panic – alternative ways to get to the slopes are possible, just contact us in the office to ask for transport option details.
If you are the type of skier or snowboarder who likes to make the most of a full day on the slopes, followed by the simple pleasure of flopping onto a comfy sofa by the fire and gazing at the mountain views, then Chalet Loden is for you (and of course we enhance that simple pleasure by adding afternoon tea into the mix!)
As one of this popular resort’s original chalets, there’s masses of space for relaxing in the L-shaped sitting room which surrounds an impressive fireplace – perfect on a wintry night. When the sun is shining, Chalet Loden is in a prime spot, and with its huge balcony doors and unimpeded views, you really appreciate the beauty of the mountain scenery.
In the evenings, the dining room has plenty of elbow room and you can tuck into your meal whilst enjoying the twinkling lights of the resort and the floodlit Roc de Fer piste.
The Loden also has large rooms and really comfy beds, with good quality bedding, so you’ll be well-rested and ready for action the next day, after your chalet breakfast.

Meribel has a special place in many Brit's hearts – not simply because it’s right in the middle of the biggest ski area on Earth. A resort for long ski days, ski-boot-stomping après and cosy chalets, there’s a great deal to do and ski here, which is why many of us have been coming back for decades.
