Very easy location.

The sauna was out of order for the entire week and there was no provision to use an alternative sauna and no vouchers or complimentary drink etc to make up for it. The walls were very thin, such that we could hear the conversation and snoring of the people in the adjoining room. The food was good. The service staff in the restaurant were friendly and helpful. Ski access very easy. 100% ski in/ ski out. Ski hire shop is in the hotel which is very convenient. 3.5/5
Very good, happy with the accommodation, service and food.

Very good, happy with the accommodation, service and food. Food was good, no complaints. Perfect location, ski in ski out. Book ski hire from the in-house ski hire shop. 4.5/5
All fine, apart from lifts not working
Reviewed 23 May 2016
The hotel was good; it has a great location as you could ski literally to the door. It would be a great place to stay as a beginner as the slope is a really easy nursery slope.
The food was absolutely fine.
Our room was also fine; the place probably could do with some sort of updating but overall it was fine.
The only major problem was that there were only two lifts, and 90% of the time only one of them was working. We were up on the 5th or 6th floor and because there were so many people staying in the hotel we were sometimes waiting forever for the lifts or had to climb the stairs. They got engineers in but were struggling to keep them both going.
Not 5* but perfectly adequate

We had a very good week here. The staff were friendly and the food was really good with a lot of choice. Really enjoyed the breakfasts - meats, croissants, scrambled eggs… it was difficult to stop for breakfast to go skiing! They also put on an effort to celebrate as it was Christmas week.
The Terra Nova’s not the lap of luxury, but I didn’t expect it to be – it was definitely comfortable enough. We had two rooms which were fine, again not 5* luxury but perfectly warm and comfortable. The location is genuinely ski in / ski out which was great.
Mediocre
Reviewed 2 Jun 2014
Were we were dropped was hardly convenient and we ended up having to lug stuff up some stairs, so it’s worth being prepared for a bit of lugging when you arrive. Inside was rather tatty and could have done with a spruce up, but we weren’t paying a lot for it. To get to the ski slopes, you have to walk about 50 yards in boots and then you ski out and away. The hotel is actually on a nursery slope, so it’s really good for beginners. It’s only a very short walk to Plagne Centre to get to all the shops and ski hire.
The food varied tremendously from outstanding to mediocre, but on average it was fine. Some nights it would be like school dinners and others it would be oysters.
The staff were excellent - outstanding, very friendly and helpful.
Our room was fit for purpose, you don’t go to a hotel like this expecting to find a presidential suite.
No complaints, great views

We definitely had a good holiday in the Hotel Terra Nova – I liked the restaurant, our room was spacious and clean and had a nice view from the window. The interior is more traditional but it was refurbished. Our breakfasts were continental with a lot of French pastries etc., dinner was a buffet which could have got a bit boring but it was fine for a week. It’s ski in, ski out and the access is pretty easy (maybe not if you’re a complete beginner but otherwise fine). I used the sauna which is free to use but you have to book it in advance. They also have storage rooms for your skis/boards which is useful. I stayed here with my husband – it’s not an overly romantic place but it was OK for us, it seemed to be an especially good place for families with children.
All great, highly recommended

Everything was good: tasty food, great location, helpful staff and nice rooms. I would definitely recommend other people to stay there!
Stayed before & will book again
Reviewed 28 Apr 2014
We’ve stayed in Hotel Terra Nova twice and will probably book to stay there again; we’ve never had any problems with it.
It’s fairly basic (as a lot of ski hotels are) but the rooms are always very clean and reasonable.
The food is good; the best thing about the hotel is definitely the location, which is ski in / ski out.
Everything is incredibly handy for families, which is why we like it and if you have younger kids, there’s a daytime nursery thing.
