Hotel La Belle Etoile

“Not posh but charming”

If you want a posh state of the art hotel, this place isn’t for you. However if you want a traditional, Italian and central hotel this is for you.

If you want a posh state of the art hotel, this place isn’t for you. However if you want a traditional, Italian and central hotel this is for you. The hotel is well located close to two gondolas and only about a 10 min walk (bit longer in ski boots) to the main jandri express. The rooms are basic but clean, warm and with the shutters closed are pitch black at night so a very good nights sleep was had. The food is authentic Italian (it is an Italian hotel) with 4 courses every night plus a salad bar! The three main waitresses are attentive and do all they can to give great service but our fav was Lola - she speaks five languages and is incredibly polite and efficient! There is a jacuzzi and sauna that you can book after skiing and a heated boot room. There is also a basic gym with a table tennis table that was a nice touch! Around 4pm everyday they have homemade cake and juices to help yourself to. The charm of this hotel is wonderful and we were very well looked after. We would def go back, thank you for having us.

“Great staff, decent location”

I went to La Belle Etoile in Jan 2024 through crystalski.

I went to La Belle Etoile in Jan 2024 through crystalski. Crystal made some mistakes with the transfer arrangements so we were due to get in at 20:30, ended up being more like 22:30 - let the hotel know and they were great, kept some food back for us and we had a hot meal waiting for us when we got there, which was very much appreciated. My salopettes ripped during my trip (must have put on some muscle on my thighs, definitely not eaten too much during christmas), and when I asked for a sewing kit to see if I could repair them, the staff couldn't have been better, during busy breakfast service they arranged for one of the staff to get them sewn up on a machine properly. Not only did they do this once, but three times during the week because I kept ripping them and I'm too cheap to buy a new pair at mountain prices! So helpful, and they didn't have to do it at all. Location wise, the hotel is easily walkable to the main chair lifts, Jandri 1 slightly further but you can get the closer Diable up and board over easily. Plenty of ski shops nearby for bits and bobs and a sandwich shop at the end of the road for lunchtimes. Very close to the Red Frog which is a great bar with sport on the TV, pool table and darts, but all the bars at the bottom are within a 15 minute stagger of each other. Food we had half board, 5/6 courses every night, decent food, nothing gourmet but did the job. Decent array at breakfast, as much coffee as you need which is all I care about. Boot room is small but functional, enough space in a locker for 2 people's kit, no blowers for gloves/boots so you may have to take your inners up to your room to dry out properly Good place, would stay again

“Not a bad hotel”

Stayed here for a week great location to the slopes and shops. All the staff are friendly and helpful The beds are very comfortable even if the rooms are a bit dated they are kept very clean and tidy. The food choice is limited and a bit basic and a bit same things over the week

Hotel is very central Steps to the entrance are lethal! We all fell down, I suggest access via the boot room. Staff are all so lovely, so courteous, so kind, all Italian and always happy and helpful 😊 Beds are comfortable, rooms and the hotel very dated. They have great liaison with a ski hire company near by, who are so nice!!! So tale the deal. Foods fine, all edible, lots variation. If you want fine dining this is not the place. It's a comfy nice hotel and very easy. Also a jacuzzi to relax, but be sure to book! Pool table available and as said before staff make the hotel! The waiting staff never seem to get time off, they work so hard!
