With the Crest gondola just outside offering skiing to the doorstep, the village centre close by and the ski hire shop just next door, the Hotel de Champoluc offers ultimate convenience for getting families on the slopes easily and without any fuss.
The open-plan lounge is a perfect place to relax and there's also a children's reading and games corner. Pre-dinner apéritifs and canapés will be served here in the wood panelled lounge, and there is a separate dining room in traditional style.
There is a range of bedrooms and a couple of family suites to meet the needs of different family groups and ages. The family bedrooms and suites provide a choice of accommodation styles for different family groups and ages, and all have the benefit of en-suite facilities and a TV/DVD player. Some also have a balcony.
Some of the bedrooms on the third floor have been renovated with wooden floors and stylish decor.
On the lowest floor is the ski and boot room, with a door giving direct access outside to the Crest gondola and piste.
At the end of the day, a red piste will then bring you back to the hotel. The piste is classified as a red but with its lovely long and cruisy stretches it can be happily skied by most skiers with a few weeks experience, skiing at a level above absolute beginners. There are blue runs leading to the mid-station so beginner skiers can then take the gondola down the last stretch.
Childcare is based in the lower ground floor of the chalet hotel. They have a Snow Club room ready for fun and games for younger guests. These rooms are also used for evening Cocoa Club activities.

Children aged 8-10 years can also take High Tea if preferred. Parents are asked to accompany their children under 3, whilst 3-10 year olds are supervised by our childcare team.
Travelling with Infants: The infant charge in your chalet or Chalet Hotel includes the use of high chair, baby changing mat, baby bath, sterilisers, microwave & kettle. A travel cot and cot linen will be ready in your room on arrival. Quality baby food always available, including jars for different age ranges, and freshly made purees at Nursery lunch and high tea.

Children under 13 years of age are NOT permitted to eat at the main evening meal and will be expected to attend High Tea at 5.30pm. However, for those families who prefer to eat together with their younger children, a 'Family Dining' option is available in selected chalets of up to 12 beds, provided you book the whole chalet for the Exclusive Use of your party, (subject to chalet suitability). Everyone then eats together in the evening, starting at approx. 6.30-7.00pm.
