Hotel Athena

Friendly staff, very good food, good location near to gondola for access to Meribel valley, reasonable prices except for overpriced breakfast.

Very friendly, well located hotel, everything you could want for a summer stay in B les B. The river is just outside your window, but the sound is not disruptive. I will stay there again.

What I liked about the Athena hotel was it was in a quiet location. Unlike Meribel where the noise went on all night. The staff were very friendly and were very helpful. It also had its own car park at no extra cost. I would say our bedroom was next to a fast running stream which you could here quite clearly, but that is a sound I enjoy so it made the experience all the more pleasent

Good small very comfortable hotel near the centre of town, easy access to the lift system for the 3 valleys, 5 minutes walk or regular shuttle bus. The staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfast and dinner excellent, all great value for money. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great value for money and extremely friendly and helpful staff. Only two things I could fault with this hotel were:- (a) the heating in the rooms was centrally controlled. It was switched on very early in the mornings, and was switched off too early in the mornings and in the evenings, which meant that if you weren't out of your bed by 7am, it got too hot in bed, and in the evenings, if you wanted to be up and around later than 9pm, the room felt very cold. It was impossible to change it and when I asked, I was told not to tamper with the heating control. The dining room was always cold - I had to be sure to wear a sweater and a fleece, and the communal sitting area for the free wi-fi was equally cold. (2) the free wi-fi was unilaterally switched off at 10pm without warning and whether or not you still wanted to use it. Other than that, the hotel was excellent value for money. The meals were superb every night - 4 courses, no choice but it was not a problem if you needed something different - and, for skiing, there is a regular, free ski-bus to the Brides gondola, morning and evening - note it doesn't run between 11.30am and 4.30pm and, very strangely, it doesn't pick up at the gondola at night - you have to walk down into the village which is a pain in ski boots.
