The Lodge couldn't sit in a better position as it's just off the resort's main street and only about 600m to the nightlife and lifts, yet far enough away for a good night's rest!
Thanks to a full refurbishment a few years ago, you'll be relaxing in comfort and style. Sink into a deep sofa in front of a gently crackling fire whilst sipping a well-earned drink from the well stocked bar. And you'll ...
Thanks to a full refurbishment a few years ago, you'll be relaxing in comfort and style. Sink into a deep sofa in front of a gently crackling fire whilst sipping a well-earned drink from the well stocked bar. And you'll need a sit down after exploring the enormous Val d'Isère - Tignes ski area.
For extra relaxation, there's a large sauna and a steam room to help get your legs ready for another day on the slopes. After hitting the wellness area, your Neilson team will make sure you want for nothing as they serve up delicious evening meals including wine on six evenings a week.
On the slopes, our Neilson Mountain Experts will guide you around the pistes while offering up coaching tips to help you become more confident on your skis or snowboard. They're all professional instructors local to Val d'Isère, so there's not much they don't know about the resort.
When it's time to head to bed, you'll be glad of the deep mattresses and comfy furnishings in your room. There's plenty of space to relax and make the place your own for the week.

Many come to Val d'Isère and divide their time between skiing, après and shopping. Its legendary nightlife is both abundant and lively with over 60 bars, restaurants and nightclubs to choose from.

The Val d'Isère - Tignes ski area claims to be one of the best ski areas in the world, and we agree. It offers an enormous variety of cruising runs and some far-reaching off-piste too. Head for ‘La Langue du Glacier' on Grande Motte above Tignes. It's wonderfully scenic without being difficult to ski or board.
Good news for hotel guests is that the old four-person gondola in La Daille has been replaced with 50 new high speed gondolas that can take 10 people each. They've been designed by Pininfarina (as have the likes of Ferraris and Maseratis), so you'll be travelling in speed and style!
With two glaciers in the area (try doing both in a day), you’re guaranteed snow so there’s nothing to stop you covering the miles during the day. Most of Val d’Isère‘s lifts are long and rapid meaning you spend more time actually having fun rather than queuing up!
The resort has spent €16m replacing the old Solaise Express chairlift with a high-speed, 10 person gondola, as well as redeveloping the area at the top of the Solaise with a panoramic restaurant.
If you love shopping, you’ll love it here. There are boutiques, designer outlets and sports shops a plenty. Dine out in the many restaurants and bars or kick back in the hotel after a gorgeous meal before heading out to party the night away.
Or if you’re looking for a bit of rejuvenation, there’s the Centre Aquasportif with a beach world (leisure pool, river currents, water cannons etc), a spa world (saunas, steam baths etc), a sports world (climbing walls, weights room etc) and a wellbeing world for massage and beauty treatments - something for everyone.
