Hotel accommodation for large groups skiing 2024 2025
If your whole ski group agrees they would like to ski in luxury, why not choose a 5 star hotel for your group ski trip. It's common to think of booking a luxury chalet for your group, but we think large groups looking for 5 star ski accommodation are often best served by considering a luxury hotel too. The simple truth is that, while a group chalet might be cosier, and you can often book them for sole occupancy, it's likely that the extra facilities which are to be found in the most high-end hotels will satisfy more skiers within your group. It's also fair to say that, with a very big group skiing and staying together, it can often help to have accommodation which gives everyone a little more of their own private space.
If you'd like to propose some luxury hotels to your group when organising your group ski holiday, below we've added some of the best luxury group ski hotels, with a link to each so you can browse and make a note of preferences before your next group ski meeting. To help everyone look at the ones which appeal, you can also click “Like” on the ones which you think the group should look at and consider.
If your ski group expects the world's best après-ski from the resort where you stay, then choose a luxury hotel in one of the two nightlife meccas of the Alps.
