Hotels in Isola 2000

Hôtel Le Druos is a charming alpine hotel with ski-to-door access, so our kids skied straight back to the door at the end of each day. Our room had warm wooden furnishings and a private balcony, and the terrace offered panoramic mountain views. Ski storage kept our gear organised. After skiing we relaxed at the hotel bar, and the resort shops and amenities were close by for anything we had forgotten.

This compact apartment in Isola 2000 was ideal for the two of us and our dog, as pets are welcome. Ski-to-door access meant we clicked in right outside, and ski hire, pass sales and ski storage on site made the first morning effortless. The kitchenette covered simple meals, and our balcony and terrace had lovely mountain views for an evening drink. The lift helped with luggage, and free Wi-Fi worked well.

Chalet Marano is the chalet hotel I recommend in Isola 2000 for families who want a cosy base with a spa. The spa and wellness centre includes a sauna, the rooms look out over the mountains, and the in-house restaurant serves French cuisine, which keeps dinner simple after a day outside. The sun terrace suits a slow lunch. Skiing in winter and cycling and hiking in summer are available nearby. My advice: choose it for its character rather than for a large spa.

Résidence Capfun Les Adrets gave our family a practical apartment with a fully equipped kitchenette, a dining area and a balcony with mountain views. The sofa bed gave the kids their own sleeping space, and the walk-in shower was easy for everyone. Cooking our own meals kept the ski week affordable. The lift helped with bags and boots, and free Wi-Fi kept the evenings relaxed. Simple and good value.

SOWELL RESIDENCES New Chastillon is the self-catering option I recommend in Isola 2000 for its position opposite the ski slopes, which keeps mornings short. Studios and apartments each have a fully equipped kitchenette, practical for groups and families who prefer to cook. After skiing, the indoor swimming pool and the sauna are a real plus at this altitude. With an 8.1 score from 927 reviews, it is a dependable, straightforward base rather than a luxury address.

Sowell Hotels Le Pas du Loup gave us ski-to-door access in Isola 2000, which meant our kids could ski back for lunch without any fuss. Our room, renovated in 2014, had a flat-screen satellite TV, a telephone and a private bathroom, simple and comfortable. Ski storage kept the room clear of gear. The restaurant with its terrace was perfect for sunny lunches, and bike rental is a bonus for summer visits.
