Hotel le Castillan

The Hôtel Le Castillan is a chalet-style hotel that’s strolling distance from the traditional old centre of Alpe d’Huez. And, thanks to its hillside spot, you’re never far from mountain scenery – whether you’re in your bedroom or sipping a drink in the bar.

Décor-wise, it’s classic alpine, with lots of light wooden panelling everywhere you look. The rooms are bright, airy and some even have their own private balcony too. Add a lounge with dotted with armchairs, where you can enjoy some easy-going après, and little wellness for some poste piste R and R, and you’ve got all the ingredients for a perfect ski stay.

As for food, you’ll be staying bed and breakfast, so you’ve got the freedom to eat when and where you want each evening. It’s well worth trying the hotel’s own Chez Jules restaurant at least once though. It’s got an excellent local reputation for serving up authentic local dishes – and those panoramic views are the cherry on top.
