Ski never-ending pistes and powder, ogle at colossal peaks and cosy Savoie architecture, then end the day with some of the world's most wild and wonderful après ski. Val d'Isere is considered by many to be the best ski resort on earth, and we’re inclined to agree.

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, ...

"Christmas in Val d'Isere"

Mr & Mrs Myers
5/ out of 5
Fantastic chalet, the interior might need a bit of updating but I’ve stayed in Val d’Isere a lot and this was really good value for money for what we paid. We weren’t planning to go over Christmas as the price usually shoots up but we saw this online and went for it. Staff were excellent and the food was fantastic – our son’s a bit of a fussy eater and they cooked special meals for him.

"Chalet Lores Feb 15"

I liked that this is a small chalet which meant you got to know everyone a bit better. It was a bit tired though and the WiFi didn’t work. You had to walk or take a bus to get to the lifts/slopes but buses came literally every five minutes. Because Val d’Isere is so tiny, you could be in the middle of any of the ski areas within 20 minutes.

"Groovy spot from 70's movie"

With 1970s quirkiness, this is the place to go for a little piece of French film history, having made an appearance in Les Bronzes font du ski. Simply designed and in keeping with its rich heritage, you’ll be very comfortable staying here, especially large groups as it can accommodate up to 33 guests. The location is also something to be envied, as it is just 400metres from the nearest lift area, as well as the lively après ski of Val d’Isere town centre. With an in-house bar as well, you’ll be well looked after if you just fancy a relaxing drink without venturing too far. The free bus service which stops less than 100metres down the road gives easy access to the rest of the resort and piste, and is especially handy for those looking to enjoy the party scene.

"More character than the average ski chalet"

Jackie, London
4/ out of 5
This place is great for big groups. The rooms are very spacious (bigger than the usual resort chalet size anyway) and all have en suites as far as I could tell. The living/dining area is very cool, looks like an old bar with separate booths and dining areas. There is an open fire place where everyone can sit around and the staff were really lovely, which created a really nice atmosphere. I think the 4.5 star is a bit of a stretch because the communal areas are really cool but some of the rooms are a bit more ordinary. If you use your room mainly for sleeping (like me) I'd say so what - its a great chalet.
