“Hôtel déconseillé en raison de musique durant la nuit empêchant de dormir”
The staff took excellent care of us—when I needed medication they actually went and fetched it. The hotel offers a wide range of services, a very varied breakfast, a ski‑room where they can issue a lift pass in minutes, and a handy shuttle that drops you off all over Courchevel; after skiing, heading to the indoor/outdoor pool or spa is a real pleasure.
On the downside, I couldn’t stand the constant “music” playing in the hallway during the day, which made reading in my room impossible, and it kept going at night too. Although the reception told me it should be turned off at 22:00, over seven nights I experienced: a night where I had to call at 1:15 am because the noise kept me from sleeping, a night when I was woken around 6 am and couldn’t fall back asleep, and a night when at 22:30 the music was still on and I had to call again. Paying over 4000 € a week, I expected to sleep without such disturbance; this flaw is a deal‑breaker for me, so I won’t return and I’d advise others against it unless they enjoy being woken at 6 am or can’t sleep before 1:15 am.
I was also surprised by the bed size; the mattress was only 1.90 m wide, and I’m taller than that, so I hung over the edge. A larger bed would be preferable.
Additionally, a few line items on the bill were unclear, but I didn’t ask because I was in a hurry to catch a taxi.
Finally, the evening hotel service didn’t seem very useful.
