Neilson Hotel Ducs de Savoie

Next door to the Hotel Le Savoie is the Hotel Ducs de Savoie, a laid-back, super central hotel that ticks the boxes for couples, friends and families alike. You’re just a short walk to the Solaise Express and Olympique gondola, so less faff, more fun, and slopes and tuition within easy reach, so everyone is sorted post breakfast.

Inside, it’s all warm woods, mountain charm and friendly French vibes. There are 36 comfy rooms, from twins and doubles to spacious family rooms, perfect for chilling after a day on the mountain. Downstairs, the rustic, alpine-feel dining room has had a fresh spruce up and serves hearty meals to fuel the next days adventures. Pull up a chair in the lounge, share your slope stories or just soak up the relaxed buzz as the snow falls outside. With its easy going atmosphere and unbeatable location, Hotel Ducs de Savoie is your home-from-home in one of the world’s best ski areas.

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.

With two glaciers in the area, you’re guaranteed snow and most of Val d’Isère‘s lifts are long and rapid meaning you spend more time actually skiing rather than queuing.

Our half-board meals are designed for skiers and boarders. Breakfast is a fairly extensive affair with cooked and continental options every day. Your daily afternoon tea of freshly baked cakes and biscuits will be waiting for you when you come in from the slopes.

Your seven evening meals consist of three courses with regionally inspired dishes all followed by fresh coffee. You can buy wine and drinks to accompany your meal from the bar.

Settle into stylish comfort – from twins and doubles for couples to generous family-sized rooms with plenty of thoughtful touches. Some even come with a shared private hallway and an extra door to the corridor – perfect for a little added privacy and peaceful downtime.

Expect plush new carpets underfoot, elegant headboards, ambient lighting and your own Nespresso machine for that morning pick-me-up. Many rooms have additional beds, top bunk or cabin bed with a wardrobe underneath, ideal for children aged six and over. And if you’re bringing one more, a fourth pull-out bed for a child can be added in many rooms too.

All rooms are fully ensuite with shower, or shower over bath with a hairdryer and toiletries. All have flat-screen TV with UK channels and a Nespresso coffee machine.
 

Our youngest guests will be well catered for too, with our childcare and crèches taking care of kids from 4 months to 12 years old. For skiing kids, we offer a ski school drop-off and pick-up service, ensuring they're happy and settled. There's also evening care 3 times per week.

Our chefs will cook up a dedicated kids' menu for high tea at 5pm. All of the firm favourites are prepared to make sure they're well-fed. You can also borrow our snow buggies and sledges for when you want to head out and explore the resort by yourselves.

For our youngest guests, we have a 24-hour baby room and UK standard cots and highchairs, just let us know at the time of booking if you'd like a cot in your room.

We can even provide a private nanny service if you would prefer to have individual care for your little ones. Simply call us to discuss your needs.

All hotel guests are free to explore the ski area throughout the week with our Mountain Expert service. You can join us and ski in the company of a professional instructor, local to Val d'Isère. They will run a series of sessions which includes guided tours of the ski area and coaching sessions, all tailored to the group's ability level.

Designed for confident blue and red-run skiers and snowboarders, they'll show you around the mountain on free guiding sessions, and even offer free coaching sessions to help you become a more confident skier or snowboarder.

There's at least 1 session a day and we guarantee each guest at least 2 sessions a week. Your hosts will explain how it works when you get there.
