Poster: A snowHead
|
In the last few years I've been skiing in Austria, however I'd like to return to France (yes, the large well known places). I'm well versed in renting small studios or apartments, but the others in my group demand a hotel, somewhere comfortable, with a spa (wet and dry sauna, heated pool a bonus). In Austria we've had no trouble finding nice hotels with breakfast at around 100 euro pp per night. Can it be done in France? All the hotels that I've found and fit our bill in France are much more expensive. Any ideas?

You definitely can but like you say price is a factor. I suspect this is because a "wellness" is a de facto feature of even quite modest family owned hotels in Austria whereas you are into corporate owned territory in France.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@sugardaddy, depends when your trip is. Has a date been set, or is it flexible?
The other main factor is where. Courchevel, Meribel, Val D’Isere, Tignes usually most expensive. Other large areas not quite so, eg La Plagne, Morzine.

@sugardaddy, Hotel Bellecôte in Montchavin (La Plagne) has sauna/steam room/Jacuzzi and comes out at just over 600 pp Euro half board for the last week in January. I've not stayed there so I don't know what it's like. There's also a public pool in the village.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

That's a tough ask in Tignes, for that kind of quality and amenities you are looking at the Montana village which comes in at €860 pppwb&b for the smaller rooms in Jan, the next decent 4 star is the Campanules which will be in the order of 1400 each pw, that is for half board though

As a hybrid of your requirements, and apartment in "Flaine Montsoliel Terraces de Eos" could be worth a look for you. It gives all of the pool, sauna etc facilities that you ask for but attached to varying sizes apartments through different sales channels.
We've stayed here in privately rented accommodation and feel the facilties are very impressive. Current cost you'd need to research to confirm price point.

Maybe Arc 1950...built by Intrawest, giving Canadian standards of size and luxury.
