09-Feb-2011
A great location for a ski hotel. Lovely staff and a great atmosphere in the evenings - staff run a couple of quiz nights and a Mr and Mrs evening. Kids loved the snow rangers and childcare staff. Rooms could do with a bit of an upgrade but comfy and warm. Is a ski hire shop in the hotel which made getting equipment very easy. A great resort though supermarket is not near by. Esprit run an evening bus and there is a resort bus (not very regular though). Lift pass very expensive for 3 valleys but is a v. big area
Excellent holiday! I would return.Read moreLess2 people found this review helpful.

The hotel is right on the slopes, ski in-ski out. The location is great for skiing but a 5 minute bus journey or 25 minute walk to the main town of Courchevel 1850.
The hotel is new this year for Esprit but it looks as though it has just been taken over and not been refurbished. The double rooms were a bit of a squeeze for us as we were sharing with one DC, but comfortable beds and plenty of hot water. The towels were changed during the week.
The hotel seemed very busy and children's high tea was very noisy and seemed a little bit chaotic for the first couple of nights unless everyone got into the routine.
Adults' food was very nice and the service was very efficient. Strangely, as soon as the cheese came out, the staff had to take the wine away due to "local taxation laws". A few people got round this by asking for another glass and just draining the bottle, tipping it into the water jug or sneaking out into the lounge area with it!
The childcare was excellent. The staff were always friendly and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. Once again, a great holiday with Esprit.Read moreLess2 people found this review helpful.
