Espace Killy Hotels

Good hotel, room space is not very generous, ski rental shop in the hotel building, kitchenette with everything required, no pool. Very close to the ski lifts. No parking.

Very nice and unpretentious hotel, walking distance to very good slopes and village centre, good underground car-park, short walk to coach-stop for Geneva links, clean, nice alpine wooden decor throughout, linked to good restaurant, very helpful professional courteous staff, extremely clean fitments all new and in excellent condition, WiFi no problems, very good skiroom and boot drying facilities, super extra facilities (pool, gym, etc). Lovely clean smell in skiroom and lifts. Extremely hygenic. Not quite ski to door but a shortish (5 min) walk to main lift area (great by standards of most Meribel chalets). Fairly relaxed checking in and checking out. Breakfast good. Will be booking again - definitely now my hotel of first choice for Tignes.

Our use of this apartment is likely to be unusual. We booked just two nights as a rest day (in the middle of one week) during a walking tour of the Vanoise National Park. It was disconcerting to find that no-one is in attendance on Wednesdays (the day we arrived) but we were let into a lovely apartment by the caretaker and found everything we needed. The lady on the desk the following morning was extremely helpful and was able to answer all our questions. There is included use of an excellent swimming pool. For the two of us the cost was a little under £50 a night. Val D'Isere is relatively quiet during the summer and this block of apartments had occupants in only a small proportion of the rooms, but there is lots to do in the area if you have an active family.

Good facilities, multi lingual staff, great value
