Méribel Reviews & Ratings

Huge ski area as part of the 3 Valleys, with a wide variety of pistes to satisfy skiers in our group with different skill levels. Resort tends to be busy but lift lines moved relatively quickly. Food choices on the mountains are limited and prices are high compared to Austria & Italy.

Great resort really good atmosphere. Amazing slopes lots of slopes for mixed abilities and off piste runs as well as these. Great tree runs and small greens. Never too busy and lifts were fast and lots of them so easy acces to all parts of the mountain. Also apres ski incredibly with Ronny and so many amazing ppl. Ski instructors also very friendly. Overall great resort.

Brilliant resort with loads going on!!! Amazing access to the whole 3 valleys area with everything you could ever need.

Good skiing, well connected to the three valleys, probably the best location out of the three valleys for access.
The lifts were quick in March, the longest queues were never more than 5 or 10 minutes. Plenty of chairs.
There are lots of good runs, not many black runs but the quality of other runs is superb. Many runs very long and stunning scenery. Easy to ski with mixed abilities for this reason.
Couple pubs in meribel which are good!

I’ve been going to the three valleys for years, this trip was just as good, though the first few days had poor coverage due to lack of snow. The facilities are great, there is a scene for every type of group and the accommodation is really good. It is the biggest ski group resort in the world, even with the increasing price of the pass it is worth it.

The three Valleys is one of the most extensive and varied ski areas there is. It’s elevation also makes it more snow sure than lots of other resorts.

Huge ski area with options for all levels of skier, awesome apres and loads of options for food and drink on the mountain

This was great - snow a bit slushy in the afternoon so get down early. It was so easy to get over to VT and Corcheval.

Awesome week - expansive resort and brilliant infrastructure. Blessed with sunshine and the amazing snowmaking saved the day.
Great food and drink options on and off piste.
Méribel is brilliant as the middle valley enables easy access to VT and Courchevel.

We had a fantastic trip. Great place to go with loads of choice on places to explore. Great snow and apres was excellent

We stayed in meribel village, not the main town. The village is small, quiet and to be honest. Absolutely awesome.

The town square has one little supermarket, one bar and 2 restaurants. But it is right at the bottom of the ‘golf’ lift. We stayed about 75m from the lift, which was never busy.

From the golf lift it was very easy to get around the mountain and to get over to the main centre of meribel, which felt like a busy city in comparison to the sleepy village.

We had an amazing trip. The resort if full of lovely blue runs so perfect for beginner/intermediate riders. We had a great powder day which opened up some really fun off piste riding. Linking runs across the resort was really simple and mistakes were easy to correct. There were a good few apres options on the mountain and the ride home is super chill and easy and especially when you get on the last run down to the village, not busy at all. And finally when you’re at the bottom of the lift, you’re back in the village center.

Would go back tomorrow and would recommend highly to anyone looking for a chill week on the mountain.

Best experience ever Meribel is connected to Courchevel, val Thorens and Orelle .. what provide a never ending of slopes and off piste everywhere

Largest ski region there is, good fo all levels and progression.

If you’re looking for apre look no further

Is expensive but can be done cheaply

Great location, lifts and amenities!

The people in resort were wonderful as were the bars and restaurants.

Plenty of shops to peruse!

Great resort an experience

Really nice resort and lots of piste to ski with the three valleys pass, lots of really nice restaurants and bars with live music,

Lovely little resort, easy to get around on the free bus service. Lots of choice of runs. Restaurant choices not too good though but ok if you want pizza abd burgers. Not a cheap resort but lovely place to ski and my daughter loved her first ski holiday.

Epic ski area on 3 valleys pass. Good mix of runs for different abilities. Great places to stop for drinks and speed throughout the valleys.

A beautiful resort with tree lined runs, great restaurants and family friendly areas. A must try for beginners and intermediate skiers.

Last time we stayed in Meribel Mottaret. It's village little bit above Maribel. Accomodations are there next to slopes and easy with kids.
Maribel is best valley to stay in Les 3 vallees. It's the middle one so it's easy to go courchavel or val thorens. When you stay Maribel changing vallays is possible with one or two lifts.
Slopes are great in 3 valleys and if there is different skill level skiers in group, usually you can ski different level pistes down to the same lift.
For food on the slopes there is something for every budget.
We have been many times in meribel but last year (Jan 2025) was first time when it was too crowded for us.

We spent 3 weeks in this incredible resort and it still wasn't nearly enough! Meribel is the perfect base in the 3 Valleys. Easy access to Val Thorens, Orelle, Courchevel and the other resorts, while having endless apres, restaurants and shops right in the village. Meribel is what you picture when you envision a "French Alps" ski trip. We lucked out with some huge powder days, which skied great for weeks after. Hiring an off-piste guide to experience beyond the resort was also a highlight.
