· ski-in, ski-out onto the Anglaises green run · 2 minutes’ walk to the Jeux ski lift · 2 minutes’ walk to the ski school meeting point at the bottom of Jeux ski lift · 2 minutes’ walk to the nursery slopes · 5 minutes’ walk to the resort centre

You'll be on the slopes in seconds at this friendly, family-run spot – it's ski-in, ski-out straight onto the Anglaises green run. Still finding your ski legs? It’s just a two-minute walk to the Jeux ski lift and the ski school meeting point. And when it’s time to swap ski boots for snow boots, the resort centre is just a short stroll away.

After a day on the mountain, this hotel has everything you need to unwind. Head to the spa for some R&R in the sauna, steam room and heated pool (you'll have one free spa access per person during the stay, after which you'll need to pay extra). The bar and lounge are the ideal spot to kick back with a tipple next to the crackling fire as you toast your day's ski tales. If you’ve still got energy to burn, challenge someone to a game of pool or table football – while the kids enjoy the play area.

Come morning, fuel up with a Continental breakfast – think fresh pastries, French bread, cheese and fruit. In the evenings, it’s a three-course meal – just the thing to hit the spot after a day on the slopes. And twice a week you’ll get a taste of local Savoyard favourites like gooey cheese fondue and tartiflette.
