Great location, great hotel. It was a really nice stay, to be fair, I have no qualms about it. The staff were all amazing. It was a little bit tired and could do with a bit of modernising. The pool was nice but a little bit cold so I didn’t stay too long. The location is perfect. Top tip: Book a room on the q... + more

The people there were really lovely. The food was good, the kind of thing that British people who haven’t travelled far would be happy with. The hotel is well located, it doesn’t take any time at all to get to the lifts (3-5 minutes walk). My husband and I had a double which was kept well with a nice balcony.... + more

Hotel Christiania is fancy and quiet. It’s all quite high brow - people dress nicely to eat and parents keep their children quiet at supper time. Our room was comfortable with good facilities and plenty of space. The food served in the restaurant was typically French style cooking with a very nice buffet in ... + more

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, ...

"Been three times!"

Antony
5/ out of 5
The hotel is lovely the staff are tremendous which is why we have been for the last 3 times, been to Val d’Isere area a lot over the last few years, stayed in Les Breviers, the first time I went to that area which was 1974 which was then a holiday inn in Val Claret, and now we’ve ended up in the Christiana and we wouldn’t go anywhere else now! The food is very good and the access to the skiing is a 100m to the where the ski schools meet. I’d barely call it a niggle but did hear one person complaining to the rep, the back corner closest to Dick’s T Bar is loud.

"It was all great."

Great location, great hotel. It was a really nice stay, to be fair, I have no qualms about it. The staff were all amazing. It was a little bit tired and could do with a bit of modernising. The pool was nice but a little bit cold so I didn’t stay too long. The location is perfect. Top tip: Book a room on the quieter side of the hotel.

The people there were really lovely. The food was good, the kind of thing that British people who haven’t travelled far would be happy with. The hotel is well located, it doesn’t take any time at all to get to the lifts (3-5 minutes walk). My husband and I had a double which was kept well with a nice balcony. The boot and locker rooms were both kept very clean. Would recommend it to anyone, no complaints!

"Nice - one of the posher hotels"

Hotel Christiania is fancy and quiet. It’s all quite high brow - people dress nicely to eat and parents keep their children quiet at supper time. Our room was comfortable with good facilities and plenty of space. The food served in the restaurant was typically French style cooking with a very nice buffet in the evenings. There's a nice bar below the hotel and on the end of the slopes, not sure if it was connected to the hotel or not but it was good fun. The Christiania’s location is really good. It's a two minute walk to the main lift, walk downhill and you find yourself in the town and go uphill and you're on the slopes. If you want somewhere where you can have a good laugh, this is maybe not the right place to stay (which is the only reason I probably wouldn't go back here) but if you want to stay somewhere you can relax and enjoy high quality service it would be really good.
