Hotel was great and staff were friendly.
Reviewed 13 May 2024
We were there the very first week they were open and a lot of the staff were new. The freshness and the cleanliness of the hotel and all the facilities was brilliant. It was a bit unusual getting used to the Club Med experience, where they actually come along and ask if they can sit down with you and join you for dinner and stuff like that. So we did meet quite a few nice people that we got on well with and we had dinner with and things like that. We had originally booked for Sestriere in Italy and we got moved at the very last minute all at Club Med’s cost and without having to pay any extra, that was great. The vast majority of stuff was really good, but the issue that we did have around the eating and drinking did detract from the overall experience. Firstly, the quality of the actual food was brilliant!
We had a couple of issues, in that for one thing the restaurant is a big open plan restaurant. There was no sort of organisation with that for queuing, so there were massive queues and inefficiencies for the way the food was laid out. There was a vending machine that gave orange juice but there were no sodas or cokes or anything like that (you can only get this at the bar). So the eating and drinking was let down by that. The location itself is ski in / ski out, it was right there on the slopes! There was snow too, which was great!
One of the best ski hotels that I've ever seen!

The interiors and decor is spectacular - a mix of modern and alpine. There are quirky features all around the hotel - gondolas in the restaurant that you can sit and eat in, huge deer sculptures by the pool, old chairlift seats on the terrace and more. I was a big fan.
I was here with a group of young adults, and we had a magnificent time, but the hotel is more suited towards families with children. That said, there is an amazing bar, huge restaurant and multiple lounge spaces, so it didn't feel like you were surrounded by kids all the time.
Once a week you get to have dinner in the Skyline Gourmet Lounge - don't forget to prebook this! What you may not realise is that this hotel is up on the mountain and you need to take the gondola down the mountain to walk around Samoëns village. This does mean that you have the ultimate ski-in ski-out access each day, but you will need to do some forward planning if you want to explore. The only extra money we spend was having lunch on the mountain - some days we came back to the hotel for lunch (included in the package), but other days we stayed over Flaine & Les Carroz. I stayed in a superior room with a balcony - loved the room, it was huge and clean, but a higher room with a mountain view would have been more enjoyable.
