Luxury at the lifts, spa, and Michelin dining
About this hotel
Hôtel Les Barmes De l'Ours stands at the foot of the Bellevard Ski Lift in Val d'Isère, making it a prime spot for those who want to be first on the slopes. The hotel blends alpine luxury with practical ski access, offering a comprehensive spa and wellness centre with an indoor swimming pool for unwinding after a day on the mountain. Dining is a highlight, with three distinct restaurants on-site: a regional eatery, a steakhouse, and a prestigious one-Michelin-star gastronomic experience. Rooms are well-appointed with flat-screen TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi, with select rooms providing balconies or mountain views. Breakfast is included, setting guests up for a full day of skiing or exploring Val d'Isère.

Our take
Les Barmes de l'Ours is a five-star at the foot of the Bellevard lift in Val d'Isère, so the slopes start right outside. Food is a serious part of the stay, with three restaurants including a Michelin-starred one, and the spa and indoor pool cover the afternoons. Some rooms have balconies or mountain views. I would book it for couples or families who want top-end dining and lift access in one address. A 9.5 from 41 guests is exceptional, on a small sample.
- Take advantage of the ski-in/ski-out location by heading straight to the Bellevard Ski Lift each morning.
- Book a table at the Michelin-starred restaurant for a memorable evening, it's a real highlight.
- Spend an afternoon in the spa and pool after a long day on the slopes to fully relax and recover.
Why we love it
- Direct access to the Bellevard Ski Lift
- Three on-site restaurants, including Michelin-starred
- Extensive spa and indoor swimming pool
- Rooms with balconies or mountain views
Why guests love itHôtel Les Barmes De l'Ours stands at the foot of the Bellevarde lift, so families reach the slopes in a few steps. I recommend it when comfort matters as much as skiing: there is a spa, an indoor pool and three restaurants, one of them Michelin-starred, which gives choice without leaving the building. Some rooms have mountain views or balconies, so ask for one when booking. The 9.5 score comes from 41 reviews, a small but very positive sample.
