La Balme Hôtels-Chalets de Tradition

Just finishing another fabulous visit to this charming home-from-home hotel. The staff are brilliant, helpful and cheery. Shoutout to Charlie and Juliette for making everything run smoothly on the reception and booking side. The bar staff are hilarious and kept us topped up as needed! The food is splendid, top-end restaurant standard. Right on the slope of a blue run, we lunched here every day on the terrace and highly recommend the steaks, burgers and belly pork. Special mention again this year to Lou the sommelier who chose perfect wines for us every night. Perhaps our favourite was the Lebanese red, but the local wines were also a delight. Bedrooms are lovely. Quaint, comfortable, clean with plenty of hot water. This year we used the local ski shop to drop off and pick up our skis (Netski). Brilliant partnership with the hotel. We have already cleared the diary to come back next year.
