Brides les Bains Christmas holidays
Head for the frosty Alps this holiday for a festive Christmas in the snow! The little village looks lovely at this time of year and the buildings are usually decorated with twinkling lights. The hotel chefs and local restaurants put on Christmas menus (we recommend La Grillade for yummy Savoyard specialities) and the après bars like Jack’s Pub will be serving mulled wine to warm up skiers by the slopes. Children will love searching for Father Christmas on Christmas eve and families can enjoy a bit of skating on the mini ice-rink.
Take the reliable gondola from the village upward to find luscious powder covering 150km worth of piste to explore in the Meribel area alone. The entire 3 Valleys are reachable from here, which facilitates for skiers and snowboarders of all different tastes. The ski area is well prepared for quality skiing in late December with 80% of the slopes above 1800m altitude.
Stay in a comfortable hotel over Christmas which is well equipped with all the facilities you need like the highly recommended Hotel Athena, or book an apartment like Le Grand Chalet Studios and enjoy a home from home. Book a place in the centre such as the Hotel Amélie for easy access to the gondola, bars and restaurants.
