Altitude Hotel
Popular hotel at the foot of the legendary Bellevarde ski run
A great find in Val d'Isere, this hotel has created the perfect balance between tradition and modernity. From the moment you cross the threshold, you will be cocooned in its contemporary alpine ambience and delightful furnishings.
The hotel's location is fantastic - even a complete beginner could probably slide as far as the lifts without having their first tumble! Furthermore, you have great views over 'La Face', the famous ski run, and it's just a quick schlep across the bottom of the pistes to the town centre.
This hotel offers a wide range of facilities including sauna, hammam and gym, a meeting and seminar room and a relaxing bar area. There are 40 guest bedrooms set out over 3 floors, all of which have been tastefully decorated with natural wood panelling and warm textures and fabrics. Most of the rooms have balconies with day-long sunshine for the south-facing ones and great views over the town for those north-facing.
The hotel itself is very family orientated and the majority of rooms are sufficiently spacious that they can easily accommodate extra beds. In addition, children under 6 stay for free during low season if sharing their parents' room.
For a 3* of this standard, the prices are probably amongst the lowest in the resort for this class of hotel. If you are seeking quality and value for money, then look no further than here. Although get in quick as you will be vying with the many returning clients for a room!
