Araucaria Hotel

Excellent hotel. Staff could not have been friendlier and went out of their way to help. Obviously proud to work there. Special mention to Denis in the restaurant who provided excellent service. Bedroom clean. Not very big (but is the norm in my opinion for an alpine hotel). Overall great experience.

The hotel is in an excellent location on the slopes and you can ski in and out. The ski room workers will even take your skis up and down the stairs as part of the service. Service was great across reception, bar, and restaurant. If you have an après drink they bring you little snacks too, free of charge. There’s also fresh popcorn every day and a little arcade of games. The hotel is clean and modern but still has a warm atmosphere. Our room had enough space but the toilet and bathroom are on the smaller side, as you’d expect in a ski hotel or chalet. The bed was comfortable and we had a large balcony. We loved the food. Breakfast was similar day to day but there was plenty of choice. There was also a pancake maker and a fresh Nutella-style hazelnut spread maker, which we loved. Dinner had a different theme each night so we didn’t get bored of it. There was plenty of choice and it was all great quality. The spa was lovely, with an indoor pool, sauna, steam, and relaxation room. There’s a separate area for kids too. We didn’t get a treatment as the cost was too much, albeit standard for the French Alps. On our last morning we had to leave before breakfast was open, but they made us a packed breakfast for the journey. We would definitely return here and recommend it to others.

A wonderful hotel in a great location with friendly and very helpful staff. The rooms were lovely, the food was delicious and the spa was beautiful. We were holidaying with our disabled son and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely stay at Araucaria again!

The hotel was very friendly and great for our family with plenty of things for the kids to do in the evening. The service was excellent in the bar and restaurant and the food quality was very good. The ski shop in the basement was well organised and the guys running it were so helpful getting our skis up and out and down at the end of the day. Could probably do with a few more lockers in the half term and peak periods, but we were lucky and had one. The rooms were comfortable and well appointed and the staff in all respects were friendly, helpful and lovely to be around. we would highly recommend this hotel for a family ski trip.

we had a very nice stay for a week in februari 26 with a family of 4. Definitely would recommend because of top location, nice atmosphere (very calm and relaxing), good food (breakfast and diner) and very friendly staff (including great service in the skishop of the hotel). We will for sure come back!
