What Skiers Say About Les 2 Alpes
Les 2 Alpes attracts a mixed crowd of beginners through to advanced skiers and snowboarders, with families and groups of friends in their twenties being common. The high altitude consistently delivers good snow conditions, and the lift system—particularly the new Jandri lift—receives widespread praise for minimal queuing. Reviewers frequently mention the lively après-ski scene at Pano Bar and Umbrella Bar, though opinions on the skiing area size vary, with some feeling the advertised piste kilometres overstate the actual terrain. The lower slopes, particularly the narrow runs back to the village at the end of the day, are repeatedly criticised for being icy, overcrowded, and challenging. Most visitors appreciate the range of restaurants and bars in the town, though some note limited and expensive on-mountain dining options.

We stayed in a hostel at the point info, rooms were a bit dirty, but overall good quality accommodation with storage, ski-in/ski-out for Valle Blanche, swimming pool and spa. No option for food, it was all self catered with very basic kitchenette.
Slopes were good, it wasn’t too busy as we went just before the school holidays. A few good powder days during the week, and 1 day with awful ice on the slopes. Night skiing was good, but was only open for a red run on Valle Blanche (this has changed, there is now a green route included on the night skiing for 2025/26). Great ski school with ESI helped the beginners, transitioner and the intermediates develop.
Apres was ok, nothing to call home about, some good DJs and sets amongst some of the bars and clubs, and some nice quiet pubs in the evenings.
Access is easy through Grenoble with bens bus, once you’re in the town, no need to really leave, so a car is a bit redundant.
1 week, 8 people, with ski pass, rentals, accommodation and flights from London came to about £450pp, with an extra £300pp spent while out there. Quite an affordable holiday
