Hotel Montana, sleeps 200, La Tania
A ski in/out hotel with a pool located next door to the gondola
Overview
Clip into your skis outside the Montana’s boot room and ski to the main gondola on a gentle green run in under a minute. And at the end of the day, swap slope stories beside the open fireplace in the bar and lounge, where there’s often live music too. A game of pool in the games room will tap into that competitive streak, or slow things down a notch in the wellness area with its pool, sauna and steam room.
When it comes to your room, they’ve kept things simple with natural wood and cream-coloured walls. Each one has a balcony, and you can choose to have a view of the piste or the valley.
A buffet breakfast sets you up for the day, and once you’re done on the slopes, you can help yourself to afternoon tea and cake. Dinnertime’s are another treat too, with weekly Savoyard evenings where you can try traditional favourites like tartiflette.
