Les Hauts de Valmeinier

Valmeinier

Stayed for 3 nights over New Year family of 8 with an 8 month old baby. Arrived at 12pm no check in until between 5pm and 7pm, actually no staff around at all - no parking, had to just dump the car! After hanging around for 5 hours we Queued to check in, finally got to the room.

ROOM: All I can say is that my room on a recent P&O ferry crossing was luxury compared to these. If you’re over 5ft you’d struggle. The walls are paper thin and the noise from the lift next to our room and kids running through the corridors kept us awake all night!

FACILITIES: Unless you pay the €8 for breakfast you cannot get a cup of tea or coffee in the morning, you couldn’t even ask for one from the restaurant and pay for it! - not great when grandparents have travelled to look after the baby! And have to sit in an empty dark lounge all morning.

Finally, my brother drank out of the ‘complimentary’ bottle of water in the room, which turned out to be neat alcohol or cleaning fluid! When we complained to reception they offered us another bottle of water! UNBELIEVABLE! They couldn’t have cared less!! I’m sure they would have cared if it had reacted badly with the medication he is on!!

DO NOT STAY HERE!!

Hostel not hotel

Les Islettes is conveniently located very close to the ski slopes and that's pretty much the only up-side.
I stayed for a weekend with a large group. The "village" is pretty big and offers lots of activities for families and kids. 
Check-in was messy since other big groups arrived more or less at the same time. The staff even forgot to put room keys inside most of the envelops given to guests.
The corridors on the floors look like those of a hospital, all dark and metallic.
Rooms are clean(ish), very basic and extra small (no TV, pre-historic heating system, limited furniture) but had a good view: I stayed with a friend on a triple room and I don't know how we could have managed if we had had an extra guest to accomodate.
The restaurant serves self-service dinner and didn't have much to choose from. It was way crowded and extra noisy. Staff were nice.
Breakfast, on the other hand, was way better.
All in all, I would recommend it for short stays near the slopes, unless of course you have kids and can therefore enjoy all the activities they have.
