Reviews for Le Cheval Blanc

Review 1:Other young guests noisy during night. No soap provided in bathroom. No tea towel provided in kitchen area.

Review 2:Convenient coded lockers.ski hire on site.able to ski from exit. Small oven supplied as well as microwave. Balcony with slopes view. Rooms warm and comfortable.

Review 3:This was a last minute decision to find snow this Christmas as the resort we were in was much lower. Really good value for money, compact but everything we needed. Location was fantastic and made Christmas 2015 amazing!!

Review 4:Noise. People left play music very loud and stamping there feet on the floor with ski boots on while listening to the music worst then being in a disco

Review 5:Storage in the apparment

Review 6:Wifi shockingly bad, i must have out the password in 100 times. The lift wasn't working which meant i had to climb 5 flights of stairs in ski-boots - not fun. and the receptionist encouraged us to purchase parking when it was free for the weekend outside

Review 7:very close to slopes

Review 8:Good, basic accommodation, albeit small. We were 4 people in a chalet for 4-6 and any more of this would have been a real squeeze. Accommodation a bit shabby and run down but saved by its central location. Good for young adults looking to reduce costs.Good underground parking at an extra cost.

Review 9:Wifi kept dropping out. One of our macjhines wouldn't log on. Every time a device reconnected you had to enter the password so used loads of 3G .

Review 10:Staff and location

Review 11:the Spanish guy at the reception, he was interestingly rude, Impatient and talking really fast (his accent is strong making it super hard to understand him) doesn't like to repeat and don't gave him your phones h'ill go checking the links in the E-mail without asking u( he was nice to other ppl), the beds was uncomfortable and they ask to clean the appartement after the end of stay. the 500 deposit witch i didn't know about until the check in ( they send the rules via E-mail of the hotel but didn't need to read since the b-booking should've mentioned all detailed ). little noisy at night and cold. NO WIFI in the rooms. the last day at 8:40-9 A.M they will Knock you door telling u to leave the door open for the cleaning staff but in a nice way.

Review 12:the location and the view ( I think the view is good at all the hotels tho).

Review 13:Poor wifi connection

Review 14:Excellent location with comfortable warm rooms and great showers which were welcome at the end of the day. ALso had a ski boot room with access to the slopes.

Review 15:Room was small. Ok for 2 people. It would be tight for 4 people.

Review 16:Helpful staff. Well equipped kitchen if you looking for self catering. One side of hotel is straight on to the ski field, the other is a short walk. Clean and quiet.

Review 17:Wifi didn't reach our apartment correctly. There were just 4 users available for an 8 people apartmnt

Review 18:Perfect location, Parking in front of the building. staff.

Review 19:The apartment was not as clean as one would expect. The toilet was rather smelly and no matter what we did to clean it, bleach, dis infectant etc. the smell remained.

Review 20:The location was wonderful and could not have been improved. Kitchen facilities were good and views to slopes were great. Staff were extremely helpful.

Review 21:Many things broken when we arrived. Bad maintenance - stop in the drain, dishwasher not working, bad smell in WC. But most of it was fixed.

Review 22:The kitchen was small but well equiped. The ski-room has direct acsess to the skiing-area. The personell was nice and tool care of problems quickly.

Review 23:We first got a room that was not livable, but the personnell did work out a solution and luckily there was a better room available for us.

Review 24:The location and ski room were excellent.

Review 25:Not only were the staff unwelcoming and unhelpful to begin with, but the manager also threatened that the police would come round and remove us from our room and they would fine us 500 euros after a noise complaint that was not our fault. Would not stay there again.

Review 26:Only positives were the cheap price and good location for skiing.

Review 27:Wifi was terrible even for email, rooms very small, we had a cabin for 4-6 people but were glad we only had 4 people as there is no way you could fit 6 people and still walk around, décor and appliances were very old and dated.

Review 28:Basis accommodation in a great location to get to slopes, small kitchen but well equipped to prepare own meals, beds were comfortable. Bathroom and room was clean but we had to clean the kitchen before we left. Beds were not made up but this was expected as it is noted in the website summary.

Review 29:- the room layout of 6/8 apartment was different from what was advertised, basically only 4 people can sleep on regular beds, the rest had to sleep on couches - sleeping for 4 at lower floor was without any walls, only curtains, thus making it impossible for part of the group to chat/play games during the evening when some of us wanted to sleep - almost impossible to connect to the wifi

Review 30:+ great location + helpful staff

Review 31:The Wifi did not reach the room, issues with hot water for showers

Review 32:Location, facilities and value for money where all perfect for what we where looking for.

Review 33:A dream of a crazy architect. Exceptionally ugly (scary interior, something between a factory and a museum) and uncomfortable (e.g. what do you need to do in order to get to the ski room on the 1st floor? You need to take the elevator to the 2nd floor and go one floor down using curly, slippery stairs - nice experience wearing the ski boots).

Review 34:Directly on the slope.

Review 35:The ski rooms for "+" rooms are located on the other side of the street - not really ski in ski out feeling. No parking space possible to reserve although I tried, had to pay 150€ for 5 days parking to Valthoparc. TV in the room useless, cannot be turned even towards the main sofa. WiFi works but don't count on it, probably underdimensioned.

Review 36:Near the slopes. Close to ski rentals, bakery and ski rental. Descent rooms. Friendly personnel (most of them)

Review 37:was advertised as one bedroom apartment, but beds where seperaed by a sliding door, hardly a bedroom!!! not enough pillows, when asked for more was told none available

Review 38:location was excellent, everything right on the doors step. cosy apartment execellent value for money

Review 39:small rooms. excellent location

Review 40:Long waiting time at reception, inefficient working. Not enestaff at arrival day

Review 41:wi-fi cuts out all the time and you have to keep logging in, but at least it's free

Review 42:good location, seems a bit dated but mostly fine

Review 43:Beds were not easy to set up. Free wifi was very poor.

Review 44:Just by the slopes and ski school. Very easy to pop back for lunch.

Review 45:Mattress protectors need washing . Shower curtain dirty . Carpets need re-placing .

Review 46:Location

Review 47:Sofa bed not overly comfortable

Review 48:Location Quiet at night Clean, warm, dry

Review 49:A bit in need of updating

Review 50:Location is fantastic and staff helpful with good English

Review 51:Right next to the pistes, so ideal location. Certainly not a luxury hotel, but was very comfy and perfect for families with young children

Review 52:WiFi constantly disconnects and requires relogin every few minutes.

Review 53:WiFi very poor

Review 54:Ski in and out, Central location

Review 55:Above noisy street where the busses offload and onload their passengers. Close to central garbage collectors. Wifi is flaky

Review 56:Close to the slopes

Review 57:Lady on reception was superb great customer service

Review 58:All ok but rooms and kitchen a bit compact which is normal for ski resorts in France ! Also wifi free but almost unusable

Review 59:Location and ski access

Review 60:Very small rooms,poor beds

Review 61:Wifi not working properly.

Review 62:Access to the slopes

Review 63:Wifi poor a little noisy at night

Review 64:Location ski in and out great views

Review 65:Great location good kitchen all round great place will definitely go back again Every thing is perfect here

Review 66:room smelled of smoke, tired bed linen (permanently stained), dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we arrived but staff were helpful in trying to sort out the problems.

Review 67:great location close to the slopes,easy access to ski locker, ski in ski out, plenty of snow, quiet, small apartment fine for 5 people but wouldn't want 8.

Review 68:Size of the room was quite small and we didn't have a change of towels. Also no kettle, but I will definitely be recommending this accommodation.

Review 69:Location is outstanding and the heating was excellent.

Review 70:When we arrive we found lots of cigarette butts in the terrace and bath tub drainage not working. We cleaned them up ourselves. We hope cleaning between check-out / check-in would be more effective.

Review 71:It is our 4th stay here. Three children participate ski lessons in different level with different start and end time. Thanks to great location and ski locker facility we can manage this easily. I appreciate this a lot.

Review 72:Excellent location, ski directly onto slopes! Nice restos and a great bakery on the same street. Basic, but functional and clean and reasonable value for money.

Review 73:No drawer space in bedrooms. could have been underbed drawers which would have helped. Kitchen too small for 8 persons, only 3 hobs and saucepans too large to get on hobs at same time. No small saucepans to boil eggs or do small portions for children.

Review 74:Two bathrooms, good heating. Hot water good. Car parking excellent.

Review 75:Difficult to get to and from piste unless in one of lower floors. Broken and smelly toilet. Staff in Pizza restaurant very unhelpful

Review 76:Good value. Good location. Reasonable standard of accommodation. Staff at reception helpful and informative

Review 77:WIFI is not stable and quite weak. Washing machine was leaking.

Review 78:right in front of the main slopes and close to the ski schools. Kids can go to ski school by them selves, without crossing the roads.

Review 79:The noise. It is filled with noisy people who think it's ok to yelland scream at the top of their voices all hours of the night and earlymorning. We were ok with it and even laughed about the situation but ifyour a light sleeper or like a bit of peace and quiet, stay away. It isin a great location and reasonably priced but if you can afford to staysomewhere else, do it. Otherwise bring a good set of earplugs and loopaper, the hotel doesn't supply it.

Review 80:The location. We stayed there for 8 days and had a fantastic time. Thesnow and ski in/$ski out option was great. The apartment was smallbut very warm and cosy. It had a well equipped kitchen and the showerwas hot , with great pressure. We had a great view and the bath was verywelcome after a big days skiing. The beds were ok. The staff were veryfriendly and helpful.

Review 81:The room was fairly cramped, it was supposed to sleep 6 however was only just big enough to sleep 5 of us. Master bedroom and living room (bedroom 2) was separated by a sliding door and did not offer much privacy, the bunk bed room was tiny and storage for everyones clothes was limited. Wi Fi did not work.

Review 82:Good location with easy access to the slopes. Rooms were clean and cooking facilities were excellent. Coded lockers to store boards were a nice touch as well.

Review 83:smell from toilet, even after comprehensive cleaning with bleach wipes it was the same. The fridge had a sour smell from it

Review 84:location & value. Room was basis but typical of ski accommodation an overall we were satisfied.

Review 85:Wifi was barely functional. Access to the ski lockers (for those on the 'plus' floors) was awkward and difficult - we were very envious of those who could use the ski locker on the 'minus' side of the building.

Review 86:Shower was good, staff were friendly and helpful. Kitchen was small but functional and we had everything we needed.

Review 87:We were on the 'plus' floors and the associated locker room led you out onto an icy path that was difficult to negotiate safely for most of our stay. The path led down to the main road which needed to be crossed and then walked along until a gap in the buildings allowed access to the slopes. I would not call this 'ski-in, ski-out'.

Review 88:The location of Cheval Blanc is the best thing about it. The apartment was fairly basic but had a lovely view and was very warm and cosy. The shower was good. The staff were very quick to respond to any type of problem. I would stay here again.

Review 89:The furniture and the kitchen were a little old

Review 90:Ski in/out with a rental shop on side and next to a ticket office and close to restaurants, a bakery and a supermarket. Flat was big enough (the bedroom was a little small but the living room compensated) and the kitchen was decently equipped. Staff was helpful and friendly.

Review 91:- uncontrolled youngsters making unbearable noise throughout the nights and no real attempt from hotel staff to stop them; - the room was not cleaned properly at arrival.

Review 92:Hotel right on the ski slopes

Review 93:Very loud noisy and rude guests shouting in the corridors at all hours of the night and ealry monrning with no consideration for other guests. The apprtment staff should take action against these people who spoil everyone elses holiday Blankets smelt bad

Review 94:Easy access to slopes Good sized to appartments

Review 95:You will get groups of youngsters staying here so can be sometimes noisy late at night (return from clubs etc) but only a minor issue and not too concerning.

Review 96:Location was excellent with real ski in ski out facility. Location of equipment lock up was great. Rooms were clean and functional and great value for a very cheap accomodation.

Review 97:The items to be improved at this hotel are: -reception service. The attitude of receptionist at our arrival on Saturday night was very bad and he could not give us instructions how to use ski locker. -So many troubles with ski locker which is supposed to work with 4 digits. I missed my first ski lesson due to this problem. I saw many other families suffered with same problem. - WiFi never worked at our room. - The parking we were allocated always occupied with another car. There is something wrong with car parking system.

Review 98:The location of this hotel is ideal for a family like us. Children can manage by themselves ski in and out to their ski school. The equipment of the room is enough to make our 7 ski days comfortable.

Review 99:Stay away from this residence!!! This is the worst hotel where I stay! Rooms are very very dirty. Carpet on floor didn't was clean. A toilet room has terrible bad smell, because it had not been cleaned long time. There is a wifi network, but no one can connect to it and it certainly doesn't reach to your room. Staff were aware of this problem as they tried to offer WiFi for a neighbouring hotel to compensate, unfortunately this didn't work either.
