Not one of the hotels for the headiest headiness, Skiers Lodge/Hotel des Alpes is ideal for those on a budget. As something of a home away from home, it is basic but comfortable with 30 rooms to catch forty winks in. Brimming with mountain atmosphere, the property is run by Ayse and Pelle Onol-Lang and has a history that dates back to 1898. Its convenient location just five minutes from the main village life means it’s always full, while the views from the terrace and an on-site sauna add to its cool credentials. Be sure to check out the all-inclusive week-long packages that incorporate guiding as well as all the usual accommodation and eating options.
