Le Madame - table gourmande, hôtel & lieu de vie
A gourmet table with rooms attached
About this hotel
The name gives it away: this is a restaurant with rooms above it rather than a hotel with a restaurant downstairs, and the kitchen sets the tone for the whole stay. Le Curtillard is a three-minute walk from the door, and the Haut-Bréda valley stretches out beyond it, a different pocket of the Belledonne massif from the Les Sept Laux lift base itself. The outdoor pool gives the afternoons somewhere to go once the dining room closes for the day, and the smoke-free, accessible rooms stay comfortable rather than flashy. This suits travelers building a trip around the wider Belledonne region, using Les Sept Laux as one stop among several rather than the only reason for the visit.
- Outdoor pool
- On-site restaurant
- Accessible rooms
- Smoke-free property
Our take
Travelers who care as much about dinner as about the slopes, and who don't mind a scenic drive up to the Les Sept Laux lifts each morning, will get the most from Le Madame. The outdoor pool and the Haut-Bréda setting reward those exploring beyond one resort. Skiers wanting to walk out the door onto the pistes should book closer to Prapoutel instead, since the kitchen here is the real draw, not lift access.
- Book a dinner table when you reserve the room, the restaurant fills with locals as much as guests
- Ask for a Haut-Bréda-facing room, the valley view is better than the road-side rooms
- Budget extra driving time to Les Sept Laux each morning, it isn't a slopeside address
Why we love it

Why guests love itLe Madame is a three-star, restaurant-led hotel in Le Curtillard, in the Haut-Bréda valley of the Belledonne massif, and I suggest it to families who care about eating well as much as about the room. The kitchen is the heart of the place, the outdoor pool is there for children, and rooms are accessible and smoke-free. It sits in the valley rather than at the lifts, so plan to drive to the slopes.
