Excellent location. Excellent value for money. The best 2 bartenders in the world (shoutout to George and Freddie for the exceptional service and sharing yoir drink making artistry!). Nice to be able to book a private 30 min hot tub (would be great if it was a touch hotter and a little less bubbly!) the themed dinner nights were excellent and the food very good. We opted for the half board which was excellent value (even considering we opted for one night out at Les Coursives in Meribel village which was the best French food I’ve ever tasted!). Suggest a kettle in the dining room for those of us who like scalding hot tea :) The rooms were big and the beds comfy. Our room had carpet which I personally hate. The lounge was kitschy and cool and had just the right feel before and apres ski. Loved the combo of old charm and low tech with all you need for a delightful stay and this quirky spot. Would definitely come back.

Try somewhere else

This hotel has a bad smell in the rooms and the bathrooms are quite disgusting. I was not happy here and glad it was only a one night stopover. For the money charged, there are much better options. The photos on hotels.com are not honest.

Nice hotel in a good location. We were B&B, breakfast had a good selection, however food was warm, not hot and baked beans were stone cold most mornings. As we were B&B we decided we would pay and try dinner one night. We were glad that we hadn’t selected this option. Again the food was warm at best and variably not worth the €35 pp we had to pay for the experience. In summary, nice hotel, service and staff were good, food needs improving.

This is a great hotel right next to the nursery slope in Motteret centre, so it’s ski-in ski-out. Rooms are cleaned daily. The buffet breakfast is excellent and the buffet dinner offers plenty of options which are changed each evening. The bar and lounge area is very cosy. The spa and outside jacuzzi are very welcome at the end of a days skiing. All the staff are very friendly and can’t do enough for you. We have just returned from our third stay at the hotel and will be back again next year!

GREAT STAFF BUT INCONVENIENT HOTEL

Hotel staff is very friendly and supportive. However, the room described on Hotels.com was different. It was stated that there are 2 (two) restrooms - however, the room had 2 bathrooms and 1 toilet room. Accordingly, the describtion of the room has to state that there is only 1(one) toilet and 2 (two) separate bathrooms without toilets. The 2nd bedroom was too small for a bedroom and looked like a closet in which a bunk bed was placed. The hotel does not have a laundry room that makes it inconvenient for skiing travelers.

This was our second family ski holiday staying at Madame Vacances Hotel Le Mottaret and we have been very impressed on both occasions. The very helpful and friendly staff are excellent. The location of the hotel is right next to the slope, a 30 second stroll from the hotel entrance. There is a ski equipment hire shop on the premises which is very convenient. The lounge/bar area is very comfortable and cosy after a day on the slopes, as well as the very soothing jacuzzi located outside at the front of the hotel. The swimming pool/spa area is also very relaxing. We stayed on half-board. The buffet breakfast is fantastic and each evening there was a different theme for the buffet dinner. We really enjoyed every meal! Our room was clean and comfortable and the shower was amazing! We would thoroughly recommend a stay here and we hope to be back again soon too!

Newly refurbished hotel + friendly, helpful staff.

Newly refurbished hotel with the friendliest and most helpful staff I have encountered in my many years skiing in the Alps. The reception staff were always warm, welcoming and friendly. The hotel is conveniently situated next to the slopes. The jacuzzi was wonderful after a day spent skiing. The food was varied and always very tasty and the restaurant staff were friendly, helpful and attentive throughout our stay. Our room was tastefully decorated and very comfortable, although at night it proved to be a little too hot. I would definitely stay again.

Good value and ideal for ski in-ski out

We arrived early at this hotel and were told that it was their first day of opening and official opening was not until 12:00 but the very friendly lady (Katie) took our bags for us so we could go and enjoy the day. The first day was all a little hectic inside the hotel with last minute cleaning and repairs been made but the service was fine, we were upgraded so we had a nice view of the slopes and room was comfortable and spacious. The hotel was well located for the slopes and there was a bus service into Meribel. The bar area was cosy and the guy at the bar serving us was very good. Only negatives really was the breakfast, lots of choice but not great quality and the ski room was a cave and very damp and cold which made getting the boots on a little tricky. We got a really good deal at the hotel so it seemed very good value but not quite as high standard as some other 3 star hotels in the Alps.
