Club Med Valmorel

This was the first time staying at Valmorel although the third Club Med this ski season. The food in this hotel reminded me of Club Med of many years ago when we first stated to ski with them. A good choice of dishes and quality was better than the 2 other Clubs I stayed at this season. It was good to be reminded how a visit to Club Med used to be like. Also Jonathan the Chief d Village always welcomed us into the restaurant every evening I liked the addition of several communal ‘quiet’ places in this Club Med which appears to be lacking from other hotels in the chain. The Hotel was only half full when we stayed so was difficult to know what the service would be like when full but we had no problems during the week. The bedroom was comfortable, well laid out and spacious, however there was very limited storage for clothes.

We chose Clubmed Valmorel for our first skiing holiday and to celebrate our son’s 10th birthday. I’m so glad we did; it was exceptional. All the staff were friendly and helpful, but a special shout out to to the kids club Julien and Kevin and ESF staff Damian M, Joel, Tom D, Philippe, Laurent, Tomas, Jean-Baptiste. The help of the kids club with the ski equipment etc was fundamental for making the trip a stress free time for us as parents. We actually got time together as adults and to learn ourselves. Trust the ski process. Every day we progressed and they made it eventful and an experience. They really want to help. And safety is paramount which I appreciated. We were able to move groups to get the right fit and bond with the instructors all week. The private ski lessons were worth the effort. We hired two instructors on our son’s birthday and they took the four of us out on the slopes to celebrate. Memories to last a lifetime. My son had an extra one too on the free day and Damien was really flexible and helpful for us. My son really respected him. The development of the children in one week is astounding. The presentation on the last evening was so lovely and exciting. All the kids were beaming and now have their booklets ready for next years assessments. The food was the best I’ve had at a buffet. Breakfast at the a la carte was good too and the service was great. The hotel schedules were busy and something for everyone. The swimming pool and hot tub was nice for a change. The shuttle bus around Valmorel is reliable and a great add to get around. The local village is really worth a visit. Very quaint. We had a drink in a pub and dinner at La table du Berger. The ski room and organisation of the lockers was excellent. They’ve thought of everything. If you do the pre check in everything is there when you arrive but you can switch if you need to. The watsapp service and app were so easy too. You never see piles of people at reception. One thing to note you don’t get dressing and gowns and slippers outside of the exclusive collection. I don’t like to return to the same place twice, but I’m torn whether to come back next year to master the slopes and know we’re getting 5* treatment or go to another club med.

perfect hotel, we stayed in the Club Med chalet, and we were impressed with the treatment received, both by the hotel and by our host Fabiano, without a doubt it made even more of a difference in our stay. Ski instructors Reneu and Matiu speak Portuguese and are very good.

Booked a last minute trip and chose valmorel because I had never been. As usual clubmed were top in every regards. In particular Eloise, Paul (Blanc), and Anastasia were outstanding. They all made me feel welcome and showed me a great time. Paul the DJ brought some great energy. The cleaning staff work so hard and deserve all the credit too - thank you. My ski guide Nicholas B was top. Sincere thanks for everyone - super sad to have left.

Excellent! Congratulations to all the staff ( and of course the manager ) for making this place truly unique: friendly and chic without overdoing it! Food is superb and always available. Evening shows are most enjoyable. Spa is clean and pleasant. I have also enjoyed the ski resort of Valmorel. The ski facilities are almost inconspicuous and allow nature to be at its best! I strongly recommend this ClubMed for those who like simplicity and nature whilst having a great service.

We had an amazing time, were there with friends and family and we had high expectations as the place was recommended by friends and they did not disappoint. Looking forward o going back in one year time.
