What Skiers Say About Les Menuires

Les Menuires is primarily reviewed by intermediate and advanced skiers who value its central position in the Three Valleys system, allowing easy access to Méribel, Val Thorens, and Courchevel. Most users highlight the extensive skiing options, efficient lift system, and significantly lower accommodation costs compared to neighbouring resorts. The resort is consistently described as family-friendly with good ski schools, though many note the purpose-built architecture lacks charm and the après-ski scene is quieter than Val Thorens or Méribel. Several reviewers mention busy pistes during peak periods, particularly school holidays, and crowded runs at the base of the resort.

Just got back from our week away at les Menuires. Couldnt have been a better week away! So many blue and green runs, looking forward to doing reds next! My boyfriend is an expert skier he went off in the mornings doing his own runs whilst I did ski school with EFC. We booked our holiday through Weski and it was great

One of the best locations to access the 3 valleys. Whilst only really lacking in the beauty of a few other resorts, les menuires is a great choice. Its value is reasonable, its ultra family friendly, has lots and lots of options for activities and pistes for all abilities, and is very efficiently run in general. Highly recommend for any level, and even for pedestrians.All round a very good choice if you are not on a super tight budget.

Brilliant variety of quality slopes. Plenty of party options on the mountain and great food. Stayed in Reberty 2000 in family friendly chalet a short walk from a blue run with numerous lifts at the end. Easy to get across the 3.5 valleys.

VT has lots of options for beginners and is easy to drive to if staying elsewhere (parking 2 was 10 for the day and is right next to the slope down to the main lifts).

it was my first time skiing and I felt I picked it up extremely fast. The tuition and slopes made for easy learning and there was always a snow guarantee. The resort itself was lovely and the facilities were good with plenty of places to eat and relax.

Les Meniures is a modern purpose built resort of mostly apartment type accommodation that is fairly spread out. There is little of a village feel and is a touch souless. If the main chairlift from the resort centre is not working then it is a nightmare trying to get up into the 3 Valleys. We had to queue for one and a half hours on one morning. Otherwise the lift system is adequate. The free bus only runs around the village and not to the other resorts. There are a lot of ski schools with young kids on the main slope into the village. The slopes around the village were very busy as was the whole 3 Valleys in early March. You really have to keep your wits about you at all times regarding other skiers. Get up there early if you like the groomed slopes, they are quite cut up by lunchtime.High enough that the snow levels are always pretty good and there is plenty of varied skiing. Pretty treelined runs there are not. Not that many places to eat on the mountain considering it is such a big and popular area. Restaurants were usually busy but good quality and reasonably priced..

My friends and I have been skiing & boarding in the Three Valleys for many years and continue to return. This is due to the vast skiing/boarding areas making it hard to hit every slope in the week we stay in Les Menuires.We find Les Menuires ideal to start and stop our daily visit to the slopes and stay in the Skilt Hotel which has a fantastic apres ski atmosphere.

The snow is typically great here, the routes well maintained and good lifts. Lots of variety for intermediate skiers, but maybe lacking for advanced skiiers who should probably pop over to Val ThorensIt's a quieter resort during the night, which is good for families, but it doesn't mean there isn't good fun to be found for others too. Quite a few good bars with foosball, darts, pool, etc, or just good vibes for drinks and music.

This is a great family friendly resort. The runs are great although, like any resort get a little tired and worn towards the main centre, croisette. It has some great none ski activities and the indoor shopping centre is really good. Highly recommend this Three Valleys resort.

Les menuires is the perfect resort for families. There are plenty of ski in, ski out accommodations all over the resort which is based over different altitudes with a free bus running between them. (This bus runs late so even after the lifts have stopped running, there is plenty of scope for skiing and snowboarding in the evening. )La Masse is one of the best off piste areas in Europe with plenty of fresh powder snow to be found even a week or two after a snowfall.The apres ski is a bit quiet but not to be sniffed at, there are plenty of cool bars with terraces to enjoy the afternoon sun and a snack. It's on the cheaper side of things, especially for the three valleys which can be accessed easily from Les menuires. Val Thorens is very close by.

I went as quite an inexperienced skiier but despite this I had a wonderful time and had so many slopes to explore. The three valleys can not be beaten for variety! Wonderful bars and restaurants with super friendly staff and not too long waits for ski lifts. Would love to go back.

Had a really dint time skiing, had lessons for 2 days and they really helped as Id never skied before and helped me get a good grasp in the resort. Food and nightlife where very good, had way to many pizzas. Not as expensive as Val Thorens but nearly just as good

We stayed in the Aire as we were in a motorhome.
Excellent experience.
We were late in the season, but a 3 valleys pass so conditions were excellent other than the decent back into the village, which was very slushy.
Always managed to get a table for lunch and a beer on the slopes.

The 3 valleys is amazing but the resort was a bit run down and dated. The runs were 95% of the time powdery with only a couple icy peaks. The apres is the best in the region! Too much of Val Thoren to explore but hope to go back soon!

What a trip?! The 3 valleys has been the perfect destination for family ski trips since I was young. We come back as much as we can and are never disappointed. Even in a low snow year we were able to get out and ski everyday without fail, avoiding some slushy patches. The variety is perfect and any trip is adaptable to whatever you need. All ski levels are catered for, with nursery and beginner slopes right up to challenging advanced tracks. There is no lack of options for food and drink both on and off the slopes, and the atmosphere is always fantastic wherever you chose to apres. This is a massive ski area with the best facilities imaginable. Couldnt recommend it enough! Even in peak times the resort is vast enough that youre not troubled by too many other skiers. I love this area and will continue to return for as long as I can!!
