Hotel Les Cimes du Soleil
We’ll be staying at Hotel Les Cimes du Soleil which is a modern hotel with Alpine touches Located centrally in Avoriaz. This hotel is ski-in ski-out, making it one of the most convenient locations you could ask for. The ski school is a five-minute walk and the ski lifts, just 50m.
Hotel Les Cimes du Soleil is perfect for those looking to maximise their time on the slopes. Decorated in a simplistic yet colourful manner, this hotel is perfect for groups.
On-site, there are two restaurants, a bar, a sun terrace and a free shuttle throughout the resort.
Avoriaz & Portes du Soleil
Avoriaz, located at 1800m, is the most snow sure of the ski areas within Les Portes du Soleil. There have been a number of piste and lift additions in the last season, there are many aprés opportunities (including the new La Folie Douce) and plenty to do off the slopes.
Les Portes du Soleil is one of the largest ski areas in the world. It offers an enormous 600km of slopes and so much to choose from in this extensive area, skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels are well catered for. Snowboarders will love the great selection of snow parks with half-pipes and hand rails, located in many of the area’s resorts.
