Hotel Amelie

Very close to town centre and lifts to Meribel.

This hotel benefits from good secure car parking (extra charge) - vital if you are travelling on motorbikes as we were. The majority of its customers are there for the spa 'Cure' so expect menus to have calory counts alongside each dish. Overall a good hotel, but river outside somewhat noisy at night after heavy rain storms.

Really pleased with this Hotel which is in a fantastic central position in the village and close to the Olympic Telecabin. Stayed on Half Board basis on a short break Thursday to Monday January 17 - 21 2008. Rooms basic but clean. Ski cupboards (with integral dryers) available at the back of the hotel which was great for storing skis, poles and boots overnight. Good evening meal in the restaurant with excellent service available from 7 until 9.30pm. Different set menu each evening. Basic continental buffet style breakfast served 7 until 9.30am. Nice cosy bar with happy hour from 4pm until 6pm. Brides les Bains is a very quiet village with 3 or 4 bars and a few shops. Not a lively party location by any means. 25 minute ride on the Telecabin up to Meribel. Telecabin runs from 8.30 am until 5pm every day.

All girls at reception were very helpful and friendly Our room was large with large bed. The bath room with bath tub and separate toilet room.and the bed was large.Only downside was noise at night because our room was on the main road! but it is centre of the town so unavoidable....Spar store just cross the road and very handy. Short walk to gondola.
