Reviews

I was staying in Brides-les-Baines over Christmas in Dec 2024. There was very little snow and very few ski slopes. But is a good place to stay with cheaper accommodation and a Spar nearby. And there is a gondola (Olympia) that will take you to other resorts and up to Méribel, which is amazing!! We spent a lot of time there. Its about a 20 minute gondola to get there from Brides-les-Baines. Good restaurants with proper French cuisine.

Bride les bain is a village located lower down in the three valleys area. No ski routes down to the village but you can get a long gondala that takes you right into the centre of Meribel, and from there you have the whole of the three valleys area. Excellent budget option for those wanting to save the pennies. We used as a base for ski touring in the Vanoise National Park, which is about a 40 minute drive from the village. Overall good budget option with good access to a large ski valley via gondala
