Hotel de Verbier, run as a chalet hotel by Inghams, is one of the most central places to stay in Verbier, with a superb location right on the Place Centrale. It perhaps needs some modernisation but most of the rooms are clean and comfortable and the dining room and reception areas are friendly.

It has an excellent bar at the back on the ground floor where resident and non-residents alike will enjoy a drink or two. If you want a quiet night’s sleep though ask for a room at the back as it can get quite noisy, especially on New year’s eve when thousands of people descend on the Place Central to Party.
