LES FERMES EMIGUY residence in Les Gets is a chalet-style complex located 400m from the resort centre, shops and ski lifts. This residence houses 65 apartments spread over 4 chalet-style buildings (with lift), as well as a small number of semi-detached chalets

This modern hotel is a world of its own, with everything from restaurants and bars to a spa and bowling alley. It’s in a great location too, just a few minutes’ walk from the Arinsal gondola that’ll whisk you straight to the slopes. The design is a mix of themes, from the warm neutral colours in the bedrooms, to the light and airy Piano Bar, and the trendy industrial theme of Bar Bolera. For an extra charge, you can use the 10-pin bowling and arcade games or the spa – it’s a luxurious retreat where you can take time for yourself in the hydromassage pool, hot tubs and saunas. And while you’re unwinding, the kids can have fun with games and activities in the free children’s club

The Planibel is a world of its own, with everything from shops and entertainment to a huge indoor pool. The skiing is right at your feet – you can ski to and from the door, and the main gondola is just metres away. And it's the perfect spot for families bringing little ones, with the operator's based here for all the fun, games and laughter to make your trip that extra bit special

Hotel Triolet offers a garden and terrace with views of Mont Blanc. The cable car to the Courmayeur ski slopes is 100 metres away. WiFi is free throughout. All rooms at the Triolet Hotel feature a TV and a private bathroom. Most include a balcony. There is also a cosy reading room and a bar. A small conference room is also available. A continental and cooked breakfast buffet is served each morning. The Triolet is a 5-minute walk from the centre of Courmayeur and is easily reached from the A5 motorway. Guests can enjoy the wellness centre located next to the property, as well as discounts at thermal spas in Pré-Saint-Didier, 2 km away.

The hotel is in one of St Anton’s prime spots here. It’s less than 10 minutes’ walk to both main gondolas, then when you’re done for the day, you’ve got all the après action in the centre nearby too. It might look traditional on the outside, but inside the Banyan is modern from top to toe. Creams, reds and blacks give each room a smart look, with chunky wooden beams to keep those alpine vibes alive. It doesn't skimp on the cosy touches either – like in the bar and lounge, where you can drop on a comfy chair in front of the fire and spend the evening sipping a local tipple or two.

Hotel Avalanche is perfectly located next to the Clotes chairlift and close to Sauze d’Oulx town centre, making it ideal for ski enthusiasts and après lovers alike. Ski right back to the hotel after a day on the mountain and enjoy everything this vibrant resort has to offer. The recently updated interiors create a warm and welcoming Alpine feel, and with the mountains surrounding you, it’s the perfect base to fully embrace the ski experience. After the lifts close, the lively après-ski scene begins. Hotel Avalanche is perfectly placed for enjoying local bars and entertainment, or you can kick back on the hotel’s sunny terrace with a drink in hand, soaking up the atmosphere and sharing stories from the slopes.

The Hotel Del Clos is a fantastic example of what a ski hotel should be. The wooden clad and carved walls invite you in and warm you up straight away. There's a tremendous feeling of space as the wide corridors guide you to the many chill-out areas. The bar and lounge area offer plenty of options to relax and refuel. They also become a real focal point during après-ski - as does the huge sun-terrace. It's worth grabbing your drink and a seat to watch the sunset turn the slopes of El Tarter a delicious orange. Families will love the kids' clubs which offer childcare for children from 4 months right up to pre-teen 12-year-olds. Our experienced nannies make sure they're well looked after with plenty to keep them happy and stimulated. It's only 350m to the lifts, and you have a choice of where to leave your skis or boards at night. There's plenty of space at the hotel in the heated kit storage room (including boot warmers for a toasty start to your day), or there are storage lockers in Nordic Ski Hire (by the lifts) available for a weekly charge.

The hotel Olympia has a traditional alpine feel throughout which really gives it a home from home feel. Getting onto the slopes each day is convenient, the Burz chairlift is just a five-minute walk away, and the Porta Vescovo gondola just a bit further. There's a great heated ski locker room you can use with the Burz ski lift, so you don't have to carry everything. The traditional Hotel Olympia is slightly above the town, so you have some really great views of the Arabba and the surrounding mountain peaks. The resort centre is just a short stroll away where there is a handful of shops, cafes and restaurants - the main lifts are nearby too, so getting onto the extensive Dolomites Ski Area is easy.

Hotel Bel'alpe is located in Morzine, just 100 metres from the centre of the ski station and from the TC Super Morzine Ski Lift. The hotel features a bar and a communal living room with a piano. On-site, guests can enjoy a game of pool or unwind in the sauna. Free WiFi is provided throughout the property and free private parking is available.
