Great hotel in an unbeatable location. We got a mountain view room and it was worth it to wake up looking at the mountains every day. It is truly ski in and ski out.

Excellent stay and would recommend. Great ski in and ski out , easy short ski down to ski schools. Food was generally very good, especially starters and deserts. Breakfast had wide variety of options. Fresh bread and pastries. Fondue restaurant onsite was very good. Staff were all friendly. Pool, jets in the pool, steam and sauna was decent. Room size was normal for ski chalet hotel, kids bunk beds has seperate door for small room. Nice bar inside and lots of space . Popular deck outside with some apres music on some days right in the sun. Music was loud for rooms facing ski slope but music went off around 6:30pm. Boot room wasn’t too hot. Nice touch with water in the boot room

The hotel is nice, really good breakfast! Location is perfect! We had a room for 2 ppl which was nice but rooms a very tight. Pool has nice warm water, sauna and steam room are great! Too bad it’s only open till 8 pm.

This hotel is a practical ski hotel on the slopes. Generally, it is fine, it has a good spa and the staff are friendly and helpful.
Unfortunately, the food was catastrophically bad. In addition to this we had a very surreal experience when there was veal on the menu and we were instead served turkey. Staff argued at length that it was veal. I have never had such an experience in my life before. The senior staff went to great lengths to make up for it but the food was really terrible every day. Otherwise it was fine.

High end, hotel with great amenities.

This was our second trip to this hotel, which is an indicator of just how fantastic the place is and delivers great service. On arrival they pushed for valet parking, but on review we could have parked for cheaper in the local car park. The hotel is very clean and the room has all the amenities. The only downside was we were given a disabled bathroom and the shower soaked everything - sink, toilet and towels etc, which was a little frustrating. The hotel restaurants were amazing and the food of high class. The boot room meant you could ski straight onto the slopes and keep your equipment in a safe locker - not sure the boot warmers actually worked! There is an additional charge for the hotel staff to get your ski pass, you are better off doing this yourself from the machine. Overall great hotel, highly recommend.

We spent 5 nights at the hotel and my impression was dubious. On one hand the staff was very helpful and ready to assist, on the other hand the room was poorly designed, the mattresses were too hard and breakfast selections were limited.

Great hotel and staff - but managed by accountants

Good points:
- Perfect ski-in/out
- Mountain view from balcony was excellent
- Ski lockers warm and very effective - best ever
- Great staff - very friendly and helpful at the reception, the bar & the restaurant
- Warm welcome and bags taken to room (and skis taken to locker)
- Evening meals were delicious - great chef
- Spa area very impressive with a large pool
- Great WiFi
- Large TV with HMDI socket available
- Nice balcony (but only one outside lounging chair?)
- Blackout curtains really worked - even in direct sunlight - good for afternoon nap

Not so good
- Restaurant was the breakfast room (formica tables in a 4 star hotel restaurant?)
- Breakfast was poor (buffet style, boil your own eggs, watered down coffee, 4 slot toaster shared by 50 people)
- Spa area and changing rooms horribly smelly - shower drains needed cleaning - didn't see anyone fancying a 'relaxing massage' in that stink. Bath drain in our room similarly clogged with a season (or two?) of hair and toe nail clippings etc (see photo)
- €9 for a ginger beer, €6 for Evian water (we drank tap water most evenings
- €6 for what looked like a complementary chew bar on top of mini-bar
- Only BBC1/2 and ITV (+ non-UK channels)
- Small room
- Strange lobby/atrium design reminded us of a Victorian prison
- Weird Escher-esque stairs going up one way, then down the next - so bad that they had to put down knobbles to warn people of stairs in strange places

It was at least 15 years since I'd been back to Le Val Thorens. There'd been a lot of changes, the dining room has been updated as have the rooms and public areas, the boot room too. All for the better.

As I said, 15 years since my last visit and I'd not realised how prices had increased. 5.5€ for a beer and 18€ for a whisky !

Best place to stay in VT

This hotel is wonderful and I have had an amazing experience there. Staff is always proactive and helpful, taking care of everything one may need, always very kind. The room is great and the views are awesome. The best view of the fireworks during new year’s eve was frm our balcony. Its super well locate, near shops, restaurants and just a very quick snow ride from several lifts. The spa is also amazing. La fondue, one of the restaurants inside is also probably the best meal we had and fairly priced. Breakfast is great, with several options of bread, croissant, cakes, cold cuts, eggs, fruits, etc.. would fefinitely recommend to anyone!

Perfectly positioned hotel for the slopes and all the restaurants. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. We like it here very much and come every year. It is possibly starting to look a little tired and I personally find the seats in the bar difficult and uncomfortable to sit on, they need some cushions unless you are very tall.

Good location ski in ski out but very medium hotel

Difficult to understand why it is a 4 star hotel. The price is like a 5 star in Austria but the hotel would hardly get 3 star in Austria... Breakfast is reasonable but surly not what you would expect from 4 star hotel. The restaurant is rather poor and the service is by seasonal staff that try but are not professional. The room are large and comfortable, the spa is good although hot tab will be nice to have. Public area is rather dull and tired. Price is surly far higher for what we got from the hotel.

Good location with direct ski access

Hotel is modern with trendy furnishing in the bar area... Room was a little on small side but bed big and comfortable. All staff were great, helpful, cheerful. We did half board, food was ok, thought would be better; couldn’t fault dessert though! Wine and beer not included so you pay extra if you have that with your meal (thought house wine would be included, but our fault for not reading small print!) They seemed to be short on waiting staff, especially in the fondue restaurant which made our last night there a disappointment.

Relaxed cool hotel in a great position

Our 2nd visit, overall we like the hotel- cool vibe, music, helpful staff etc. Very noisy atrium overcome by 2 doors in each room. Overall could do with some further sound-proofing though - noisy wardrobe doors echo between floors makes it difficult to sleep. Like almost all skiing hotels too hot and dry at night, that may be all that’s possible with the altitude and climate. Clean rooms, unobtrusive management and staff who are very helpful. Great position next to slopes and in the centre of town. Relaxed atmosphere.

Wanting to be more than it is—recommend elsewhere!

We thought that VTO would be a great experience and was very wrong—the finer details of a great stay were lacking on every account. Our heaters were turned off in the room daily, our room window was left open so we returned to a cold room after skiing, some days the room wasn’t completely cleaned and dirty towels left, breakfast was cold and we were told there would be a late breakfast available (which there wasn’t!), when we asked to speak to a manager, 5+ managers were sitting listening to our conversation uninterested in helping. There were a few lovely staff members, David & Naila, but apart from those two would never return.

Ski in Ski out

Hotel in central location, ski in Ski out in Val Thorens. Ski boot room opens onto Ski school area. Hotel is central for shops and restaurants. Ski hire shop within hotel with 20% discount for residents. Choice of dining in one of two restaurants if half board.
Pleasant pool, spa, sauna and steam room
Staff extremely helpful
Only downside was that bedrooms overlooking the town rather than mountains were noisy at night when students left the pubs/ nightclubs at around 4am:(

Not worth its 4 stars

Le Val Thorens definitely packs some great perks: a swimming pool, a spa, ski lockers, a great location, ski-in / ski-out. And you could easily be fooled by the hotel's good looks, from the terrace to the rustic rooms. Praise, however, stops here. The list of issues that aren't worthy of a 4-star hotel goes on and on. Service is poor and clueless, and seems to be performed exclusively by interns. On the first night the internet didn't work and the staff didn't really care, on the second night the fire alarm went off twice for no reason. The room is small, the layout is terrible, and there's nowhere to put suitcases. Hang your coats on the coat hooks and you won't be able to open the door anymore. The bed is uncomfortable and the cheap synthetic pillows are horrible. The heater must date from the eighties and requires trial and error to say the least. The closet reeks of rotting melon, whose smell the staff has tried to mask with air freshener. It's impossible to run a bath without getting into the bathtub first, the shower head's pressure is miserable, the hotel only provides a big bottle of body and hair shower gel and doesn't have any hair conditioner. The included breakfast is good enough but service is again terrible -- count 20 minutes to get a knife, a napkin and a spoon, all of which could just be made available at the buffet but aren't. If this was a 2-star 100-euro hotel, this would all be fine. But it's not.

Underwhelming

This hotel is one of the worst places I've stayed in and poor customer service.
My family and I stayed for three nights at this so called 4 star hotel and paying over the average rate expected a fair quality hotel .
The reception staff were ok but very slow to process anything .
The worst part was the breakfast ,there weren't enough staff to deal with the guests and there was no food / drink left at 8.45 am
My Husband called the duty manager to take a look and she blamed the restaurant staff who actually were working very hard to rectify the situation but there wasn't the food in the kitchen to be able to replenish .
In my opinion this is due to poor management or no management .
Several of the bar staff had a very poor attitude ,I'm not sure if this is due to the fact that we were British ? But we felt very uncomfortable .
The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the chamber staff were very pleasant .
All in all I wouldn't recommend this hotel and would say it's more Like a 2 star but laying 5 star prices

Great hotel, except for loud music on Friday night

I and partner stayed for a week for skiing trip in mid April. Hotel was easy to find. It has got an access straight in/out of the slope with locker room. Hotel staff were very friendly. They helped booking a parking space for our rental car and had valet service to park the car. Hotel location was in the middle of the village, close to everywhere. Breakfast was decent, quite a wide range of choices. The only complain we had was the loud music played on Friday night, from La Fondue, one of their restaurants. Although our room was on the 3rd floor, apparently it was right above the restaurant, the bass was very loud, we could hear it very clearly that we were unable to sleep, while we had to get up 7am the next day to start the journey back home. We phoned at around 11pm and they said the music would end soon. But it kept going and had to phone 2x more before it was finally switched off at 12pm. Half the time, the phone went to answering machine, where it supposed to be 24 hour reception service. Overall great hotel, but was very disappointed with the music situation.

Great Val Thorens Hotel

I am not sure what else you could ask for in a hotel for a Ski break. My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights and thought it was brilliant. We stayed room only, and felt the room was really comfy and good value, the hotel felt of a high standard throughout and the ski access was second to none - walk out the locker room straight onto the piste.

We didn't eat at the hotel, but enjoyed relaxing on the terrace with a beer after skiing, or sitting in the lounge in front of the fire.

Excellent service from the staff, and a wonderful location.

Very dissapointed with some of the staff.

Some of the staff sighed when asked to do something, having stayed in the Altapura last year and experienced staff
who could not do enough for you to come here and some of the staff be rude was a huge dissapointment.However half way through our stay some new staff arrived and said they had come from courchevel and they were much better and more helpfull.
The food was ok but when we walked into the buffet it was that small and limited i had to look around to see where it was with only 3 main dishes available and very overpriced for what it was. We ate out every night after that and had some lovely food for half the price.

Great on piste location

Had to make a video for my daughter's GCSE. Many thanks to the man who runs the ski hire shop (ValthoSport) for showing us how they prep the skis, with wax and edge sharpeners. Also the types of skis and the binding calculations. He was extremely helpful.

Stayed in this hotel for the 3rd time, first time since the renovations. Whilst I am a fan of the contemporary look, I feel that the hotel has lost a lot of its cosy feel. Everything that doesn't move has been painted in a mushroom colour. The food in the French restaurant was good (and better than before) but the Fondue restaurant is still our favourite.

All staff were very friendly. Pool was cold, we wished they had a hot tub.

Renovations not complete

This hotel does not currently deserve a 4* rating - it is not ready following renovation, many things do not work in the hotel and in your room (e.g. wifi, leaking roof, lights, etc). The staff are also incapable of offering any apologies for the inconvenience. Definitely not worth the price of the room.
