Not one of the hotels in Verbier for those seeking a truly hedonistic haven, Hotel Bristol will suffice if you’re a bit pushed for cash. It is situated just off the main square and was completely renovated in 1999. The 31 rooms have all have been tastefully done and are fully equipped, each one also has a mountain view so there is no risk of overlooking the car park and missing out on the vistas and panoramas.

There are two entrances: one traditional hotel entrance into a lobby; and a rather strange alternative where you walk past the shops and take a lift up one floor. It does save your legs, though.
