Great week, everything was fine overall, really nice food and great service.

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.

Meribel's location is tricky to beat, slap bang in the centre of the mammoth Three Valleys ski area. British made, and largely Brit run, it's a destination we flock to year after year for a homely atmosphere in a good looking resort with more than enough pistes for a week (or three). It's made up of a huddle of gorgeous hamlets, built in traditional wood and stone and surrounded by thick woodland. The main area is Meribel Centre (usually known just as Meribel). A traditional alpine village with choc-box chale...
Meribel is one of the best ski resorts to learn in. There are three beginner areas known as 'Ski Facile' (easy ski) plus great green pistes to practise on including Le Foret and Altiport. Both runs are carefully planned out so you can practice at your own pace in quiet surroundings. If you're skiing with children, there are fantastic ski schools and child-orientated areas, including animal sculptures scattered around the trees at the 'Pistes des Animaux' where children can learn about local wildlife as they e...
Whether your day on the hill leaves you wanting to relax with a vin chaud, have a pint and play pool, or party the night away, your time off the slopes can be as varied as the day spent cruising the incredible Trois Vallees. It's said that you haven't experienced après ski here (or anywhere for that matter) until you've sampled toffee vodka in Le Rond Point, which is easily one of the most famous après ski bars in the world - complete with a slide down to the toilets! Meribel's rightly famous for its nightl...

"Perfect position but below 5* standard"

Mr Armstrong, Lancashire
3/ out of 5
Le Chaudanne isn’t as nice as the Alpine Palace which we always return to. The Chaudanne's location is fabulous, but food and spa wise it wasn’t 5 star. The rooms were a lot smaller than we’ve had before. The main issue was that the food selection wants to be more varied. Having the same set menu every night meant there wasn’t enough choice, especially for my wife who tends to eat vegetarian food.

"Overall good"

Great week, everything was fine overall, really nice food and great service. We had a room in the eaves which unfortunately had some smoke from the lounge being filtered through, which wasn’t very pleasant – at first we thought it was in the fabric, but when we realised where it was coming from we managed to sort it out a bit, a which improved things. The hotel didn’t have a boot hire room so we had to use a place over the road. All other aspects were good!
