  Perfect ski hotel.

  16 Apr 2026

  Booked a last minute trip with my 13 year old daughter for the last week of the ski season. This hotel was wonderful! It’s nicely located just down from the main village of Avoriaz. It’s easy get to the three main chairlifts and there is a ski shop directly opposite. The staff at the hotel are all really welcoming and friendly. Our room was big and comfortable, and had a wonderful view of the mountains. There are great radiators for drying things if you have a wet day on the slopes. There are a couple of saunas, a steam room, and a Nordic bath, which were all lovely at the end of a long ski day. I’d seen bad reviews about the breakfast but I thought they were excellent - lots of different pastries, cakes, yoghurts, cereal, eggs, smoked salmon, lovely fresh orange juice. On arrival in Avoriaz, we walked down with our bag in a sledge, and when we departed, we got a snow mobile (the horses and sleighs had stopped for the season). The hotel helped arrange it for us at 6am as we had an early departure, nothing was too much trouble for them to help us. I would definitely stay here again and really enjoyed our stay.

  Gorgeous stay

  03 Mar 2026

  We had a truly wonderful stay at this charming hotel in the French Alps. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome, with warm hospitality that perfectly matched the cozy mountain atmosphere. People say the decor is tired however its the charm of it to have the rustic alpine feel so it didnt bother us. The hotel is ideally located right in the heart of the ski resort, just steps away from the slopes, which made getting out early each morning effortless. The views of the snow-covered mountains were absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunrise and sunset. The ski hire shops are all within a 5 minute walk or one opposite.Our room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully decorated in a traditional alpine style. The bed was very comfortable after long days on the slopes, . The spa and wellness area was also a highlight — the perfect place to relax and unwind after skiing. Yes the hot tub isnt the hottest but it didnt ruin the experience, Breakfast each morning was great with a generous selection of fresh pastries, local cheeses, and hot options. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. We did half board so we had an evening meal, the only thing we would suggest is more veggie options as we are veggies Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations. If you're looking for a relaxing and memorable ski holiday in France, we highly recommend staying here. We would absolutely return! We would like to make a special mention to Melvin and issabelle they are such lovely people :-) Direction Dromonts, General Manager at Hotel des Dromonts by SOWELL COLLECTION, responded to this review Dear Matilda,Thank you so much for your wonderful review.

  Charmant but not excellent

  + location, hotelvibe, places for drinking, friendly staff, roomcomfort- no help with luggage, poor choices eating half board, cleaning room late in the afternoon ( after 4pm), lack of hospitality Direction Dromonts, General Manager at Hotel des Dromonts by SOWELL COLLECTION, responded to this review Dear M D.,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay with us. We are pleased to read that you appreciated our location, the atmosphere of the hotel, the comfort of the rooms and the friendliness of our team.We are however sorry that some aspects of your experience did not fully meet your expectations. As your stay took place during one of the busiest periods of the season, our housekeeping teams were particularly busy, which may explain why room servicing was sometimes later in the afternoon.Regarding the half-board offer, guests can choose between our two restaurants, offering a selection of several starters, main courses and desserts, allowing a variety of options throughout the stay.Your comments regarding luggage assistance, the ski room and the overall experience have been noted and shared with our team, as feedback such as yours helps us continue improving the experience we offer our guests.We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again to Hôtel des Dromonts for a more enjoyable stay in the future.Warm regards,The Hôtel des Dromonts Team

  Mutton dressed as lamb

  I am not sure who awards hotels their stars, but I think 4 stars is a bit generous... The staff on the front desk are absolutely charming and cannot do enough to help. The location is excellent, truly ski-in and out. The ski shop opposite are first class as well and the staff super friendly. However, there were several drawbacks that were disappointing. The rooms were small, the hot tub should be called a tepid tub, the acoustics of the very odd architecture mean that conversations have to be muted all the time (especially later in the evening when the staff tell you politely to be quiet - even if you're not being noisy). Beneath a very thin veneer of attempted glamour the hotel looks tired and dated. The restaurants (essentially two different rooms served by one kitchen) are ok, though one evening we had to send food back as it was stone-cold. Breakfast is standard buffet fare, again unremarkable - and the coffee tasted like the stuff you get from a motorway service station. Were it not for the friendly and hard-working staff, it would have been a very forgettable stay. Direction Dromonts, General Manager at Hotel des Dromonts by SOWELL COLLECTION, responded to this review Dear Ricardo,Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback following your stay with us.We are very pleased to read your kind words about our front desk team, whose dedication and helpfulness you highlighted, as well as about our ski-in / ski-out location and the ski shop just opposite the hotel.
