Hôtel Eliova l'Eau Vive

Its location to the lifts for skiing was great, and the breakfast was wonderful. Also the free parking was definitely and wonderful added bonus

It felt like a hostel then a hotel, and as a hostel it was great, but we were expecting a hotel!! We had to check out a hairdryer! We had no WiFi in our room because it was to far from the lobby which you could get it there. The roof in our bathroom looked like it had water damage and was caving in, and the beds have much to be desired!!! We had not realized we had half board with our package and the dinner was good but no options and when we asked about options they informed we needed to tell them in the morning which we were unaware off or told about upon arrival.

very good location near the skilift and good breakfast

Extremely bad food for dinner. Had half board and it was sometimes not eatable. We had one vegetarian in our group and they didnt even bother to take the bacon out in some of the dishes. Disgusting. We had hardly any vegetables all week. Very noisy in the diningroom

Great location to get up to the slopes. enough place to park, ski lockers easily accessible, ski rental and stores next door, simple but confortable room and the hotel has a restaurant and bar for a last drink before bedtime. Breakfast was nice as well and pretty complete (many types of teas and coffees, cereals, viennoiseries, fruits, eggs, ham, pancakes.. The place was perfect for the purpose and well priced.

There was no internet since they had issues with the provider. It was not a problem for us but if you plan to get some work done.... It's important to know that if you want to go to the centre of Châtel in the evenings you need to take your car.

It was near the slopes and it was as it shows in the pictures. Food was ok but almost no vegetables.

Internet did not work for 3 days and still not working when we left.

1. Proximity to the Linga ski lift. 2. Friendly and helpful staff. 3. Clean and comfortable throughout. 4. Relaxed atmosphere. 5. Great breakfast. 6. Good communication with staff. 7. Making Negronis with the owners!

I know this is France, and we didn’t warn in advance (so my bad!), but my 20 year old daughter is vegetarian (not vegan!) and the kitchen really struggled! If they learnt the difference between veggie and vegan it would have been easier I am sure! Don’t let this put you off. If you have dietary requirements be sure to message ahead and be specific about what you do and and don’t eat.
