VVF Les 7 Laux Massif de Belledonne
Kids' club and pistes both a short walk out
About this hotel
The Prapoutel Patte d'Oie piste junction sits a two-minute walk from this VVF, and the main Les Sept Laux lift base is only two minutes further, which makes the morning routine here almost as short as it gets anywhere in the resort. The apartments stay low-key rather than styled, built for a family week of ski boots and wet gloves rather than a design magazine shoot. The kids' club takes the pressure off parents wanting an afternoon off, and the game room and bar cover the evenings once everyone's back and dry. Le Rocher Blanc sits a six-minute walk away for a change of scene. This is a holiday village in the true sense: practical, close to the lifts, and built around getting families out the door fast each morning.

Our take
Families who want the shortest possible walk to the Les Sept Laux lifts, with a kids' club to share the load, will find this VVF hard to beat at Prapoutel. The apartment layout and kitchens make longer stays easy, and the game room and bar keep evenings on site. Couples or solo travellers wanting a boutique atmosphere or an adults-only pace should look elsewhere, since the kids' club and game room firmly set the tone toward families.
- Book the kids' club slots as soon as you arrive, they fill fast during February school holidays
- Choose an apartment over a studio if staying more than four nights, the kitchen space earns its keep
- Head to the Patte d'Oie junction first thing, it's the fastest route onto the beginner-friendly runs
Why we love it

Why guests love itVVF Les 7 Laux is a three-star holiday village four minutes' walk from the Les Sept Laux lift base and two from the Prapoutel Patte d'Oie junction, and I recommend it to families planning a full ski week. The kids' club gives parents some free time, the game room covers snowy afternoons, and the apartments come with kitchens for cooking in. There is also a bar, and pets are accepted.
