The modest chalet-style Hotel Val Chavière is a homely place to rest your head in Val Thorens, the highest ski resort in Europe.
The décor in the rooms is simple, but it’s all about the views here – open your doors and you can gaze across the slopes and watch the Pionniers chairlift whizz past you on its way up the mountain. You can’t get any more winter than that.
The rest of the hotel is pretty laidback too. There’s a cosy bar for a late-night tipple, a games room, and an outdoor terrace ideal for soaking up the sun. There’s also a little lounge area in the lobby – the perfect rendezvous before heading out on the town.
With a wine connoisseur for an owner, the hotel's food and drink is truly great value for money. Staying at the hotel on a half-board basis, you’ll get to enjoy complimentary morning and evening meals served in a Savoyard-style restaurant overlooking the piste. The breakfast is typical buffet fare, while dinners are comprised of five superbly presented courses – delicious.

Tourist Tax
In some resorts, you’ll need to pay a small fee called a ‘tourist tax' at your accommodation, either when you check in or check out.
These taxes can change at short notice, so it’s always worth checking the latest details before you travel.
Good to know: Not all accommodation accepts card payments for taxes, so you may need to pay in cash instead. For some countries, tourist taxes are calculated based on an accommodation's official rating, which can be different to its rating on our/the operators site.
