Mountain Lodge, les Crosets

I just wanted to leave a glowing review for Mountain Lodge. The trip began with a smooth and effortless transfer, we were provided with water and a snack which was perfect for the journey. The restaurant and bar staff were attentive, friendly and amazing at what they do, true professionals! The bar staff were on hand to pair wines with the food and made the most wonderful cocktails! The restaurant staff couldn’t have done more for us, providing a top class experience for every meal. The live music and quiz nights were fantastic ways to end our days with the opportunity to enjoy our time in the communal spaces of the hotel, providing a really intimate experience to the stay. The standard of the food and quality of the ingredients was incredible, the overall breakfast and dinner provided was beyond excellent. The daily specials were varied and the entire menu offered great taste and choice away from your usual mountain food. The presentation and taste was the perfect way to start my day and finish it off. The ski/boot room was really accessible and well laid out, with benches to get your boots on and shelves to store your kit. The heated boot warmers were a welcome sight at the end of each day. A private entrance to the slopes made it easy to start the day as we never had to compete with car parks full of people. Although I had my own skis, the shop looked really well prepared for hire, with some great options for skiers and boarders. I will further compliment the servicing options available, the team waxed and edged my skis and did a fantastic job and I’ll confidently return in the future. The spa is one of the best features of the hotel, after a day of being on the mountain it was really welcome. A quiet private space to unwind and relax in the sauna, hammam or pool all looking out to the most stunning mountain range. I’d book to return to Mountain Lodge based off the spa alone! The room was immaculate every day. The housekeeping team did an incredible job for our arrival and every day between, the quality of the bed and bedding was also fantastic and enabled some of the best sleep I’ve ever had after skiing! After a long day on the slopes or in the spa, having Rituals products in every bathroom added a touch of luxury to having a shower. Finally, I’d like to compliment the front of house team and the manager Adam. He runs a fantastic team and a fantastic hotel. The operation is seamless, from the delivery of afternoon tea, to the organisation of transfers- I really could relax and enjoy my time at Mountain Lodge. What you get at this hotel is one of the best hotel experiences in the Alps. The intimacy of the hotel, quality of what is served and the quality of rooms makes it difficult to leave in the morning to get onto the mountain, but incredibly inviting when you return at the end of the day.

This is our second stay at Mountain Lodge it really is such a fantastic hotel. The staff always work so hard and can’t do enough to help. The hotel and the food is also spectacular. It has everything you need under one roof for both families and couples. We have no doubt we will back next season :)
