The hotel was good and the location was fantastic.
The only thing is that the bar opened at funny times, we are used to the hotel bar opening at about 5pm but this particular one wasn’t open then. I guess the reason why is that literally next door there was an Irish bar and next door there was another bar, so maybe that’s why they didn’t bother opening it up early. We ended up just going to the Irish bar which is literally attached to the hotel downstairs next to it, then by the time we had a few drinks there after skiing then we just got back, got changed, had a half an hour rest and went to dinner. Also being close to the bars, it was perfectly fine in the hotel so you couldn’t hear any noise which is good. I would recommend that Irish bar though and they have live music and also show the sports/football too. We’re not party animals or anything but it was good and felt quite buzzing.
The hotel room isn’t massive, as we expect now with skiing. I guess the layout isn’t the best, but it was fine for us.
I think there was a last minute change for our season for the food service. The main course was served by the waiters and you had a couple of choices, then the starters and desserts were chosen from the buffet. I think it used to all be buffet before.
I think we got 3x choices each night for the mains to choose from and the food was good.
The location was fantastic and the locker room and everything was good.
It was literally a short walk, probably 3 minutes to the lifts. I hate walking and for me it was fine. It wasn’t ski in/ski out but it was hardly any walking.

Very well placed. Great to be in Val Claret and close to Cocoricos and the skiing at that end. Everyone was really helpful, staff-wise. Sorted things out very promptly. Handled the big group very well. Very nice food. Excellent soup in particular. Very convenient. Ski shop was next door so was very quick and easy getting on the slopes. Worth a trip to the Folie Douce. Incredible amount of skiing in the area.

Hotel was okay, not great not bad – same for the service. At times they were trying to kick us (group of 40) out of the bar before closing time. Buffet served food was a decent enough for the group. Not bad ski access, had to walk across the road to access the piste – not true ski in / ski out.

We have stayed at the Hotel 4 times now and this time the food has gone down hill. Not to the standard it has been previously. The Sauna and spa facilities are still good though. The bar was a bit tired and lacked some atmosphere. The best thing about the hotel is the location. The slopes was across the road and that's why we picked it, its our fourth time at the same hotel.

It did the trick, it’s not complete luxury but it was all we wanted and I’d recommend the hotel to others. The food was fine, if anything there was a bit too much and it was quite rich for my liking, but the service and variety of dishes was good. We sat at the bar quite a lot and the hotel has a sauna but we didn’t use it. No probems with the rooms, everyone had enough storage etc. We weren’t expecting a rep but they were quite helpful and it was good to be advised. Transfers were long but you can’t do anything about that. Enjoyed skiing in Tignes and would probably go back.

Diva is probably the best hotel in the area, the rooms aren’t massive but they’re substantial and comfortable enough. You can’t beat skiing right out onto the lifts! The food was nice with a good choice of meals.
Just don’t book the hotel next door which we did with a different company thinking it would be the same... it was really rough!

We had a very good deal at the Diva through SNO. The hotel is very convenient as it’s really close to the lifts and we found that the Val Claret area is definitely the best compared to Le Lac.
The rooms are OK, nothing to get excited about but adequate if you just want somewhere to sleep. We had a standard double with an en-suite and a balcony that looked out onto the slopes.
The facilities included a sauna, gym and bar with plenty of room to sit.
The check in was a bit of a pain as the whole process was quite slow.
The food was absolutely outstanding – I’d go back just for the food. It was astonishing what was on offer. You had a huge buffet with the evening meal which included a salad bar, starters, a choice of mains and about 20 different desserts - everything was exceptional.
