Situated just off the main street in Val d’Isère at the top end of town, The Lodge is close enough to the action to make the most of this world class resort, yet enjoys just enough distance to find a little peace and quiet at the end of a day. The main lift station and ski school meeting points are an easy 500 metres (approx.) walk through the picturesque old part of town, or even easier is to hop on the free and efficient bus service which stops just 200 metres from The Lodge. Alternatively, just 10 minutes on the bus further out of town will bring you to the long cruising pistes and glacier of Le Fornet.
The Lodge was previously run as a small hotel and so enjoys all the benefits which you would expect from such a property. All bedrooms enjoy good levels of comfort with en suite facilities and many with balconies, there is a sociable lounge/bar area with a stone double-fronted fireplace through to the restaurant, and on sunny afternoons there is a large terrace to work on your goggle-marks. Sounds great already, but then we got our hands on it, turned it into a Ski Lodge, and made it even better!
Welcome to The Ski Lodge – catered chalet accommodation, only better. We added flat screen TVs and iPod docks to the bedrooms, a PlayStation 3 to entertain the big kids on the giant plasma screen TV in the games room, heated boot warmers, ample ski storage and complimentary WiFi access. No modern ski accommodation would be complete without at least a sauna, Jacuzzi or steam room, so we added one of each too. Families have not been forgotten with extra beds at half price available for children sharing with adults and we can even arrange a private nanny for whilst you are out skiing. The top floor boasts 2 spacious suites ideal for families or a group of friends. Add to all this to our exciting new Ski Lodge service and you have the ultimate in ski holidays.
