Vallorcine Apartments

We haven been visiting this property for over a decade. We beared witness to her glorious day and it is sad to see her gradual decade. For value of money and a quiet location, this is ideal. However, since the change of managing structure, they have implemented a list of cost cutting exercises. The reception, children’s playroom, spa, stream room, Japanese bath, the store at the back of the bakery (whichever turned a real estate agent and now vacant) had all but disappeared. There is with dampness across the corridor. Certain lights in the swimming area are not operational and corrosion are seen in some fittings. The temperature of the water in the swimming pool is turned down and closed at

Great spot outside the city centre. Great communication for the check-in .

Great location, this is a very quiet area in the valley. Excellent view of the river and cattle pasture. The main thing that I didn’t like was the welcome bag was mainly a green scratchpad and cleaning products. It was a little stressful because there was the threat of losing a huge deposit if it wasn’t cleaned well enough. For the price of the room, I would expect to be greeted with a green scratch pad and told that it better be clean or else!

We stayed 19-26 Feb 2926. First of all the accommodations communication is fabulous. I would say the ski in ski out is misleading. It’s probably an 8 minute walk in ski boots and carrying skis and poles to the telecabin. When you then exit the slope at the end of the day you also have this walk back but around the train station so adding on a few more minutes - we did learn it is far easier to get the telecabin down (but no way near as fun). The walk does take you past a drink stop though so it made it bareable. We had a double bedroom in our accommodation with a sofa bed in the lounge, one sleeps on the sofa part and the other on a trundle pull out. Everyone slept very well.- The apartments are well equipped with everything you need. We did not have an oven which proved problematic on the first day after running to the supermarket at the airport and grabbing a pizza for dinner. Thankfully on day 2 we got talking to a couple who had an air bnb so they cooked it for us! We were worried about our stay here after reading some quite negative reviews but never needed to worry. The pool is cold….despite saying it’s heated but it did not bother the children in the slightest and they loved going to the pool everyday after a day on the slopes and unwinding. We also enjoyed decanting some wine into paper cups and watching them play from the loungers. The sauna works. The bakery is lovely….we had the muffins, croissants and enjoyed the pasta & curry dishes. I would recommend.
