Morzine Reviews & Ratings

One of the most overly hyped resorts that I have been to. Very mediocre skiing and snow conditions due to its lower altitude. Avoriaz is better but they are not well-connected. Bus can take an hour. Perhaps a better resort for lower level skiers who just need some green and blue runs to practise on and then a load of bars to go to afterwards. The town itself is cool but in terms of good quality freeride terrain it's pretty poor. Won't be rushing back anytime soon

I wouldn't go back to Morzine. The altitude is just too low to ensure decent snow. I've been rained on multiple times in Morzine. It's also a very busy resort full of beginner Brits. The town itself is fun with good bars and restaurants. But if you are mainly interested in the quality of the skiing rather than boozing all afternoon, there are many better options that are better value for money and offer much better skiing.

If you are visiting Portes Du Soleil, I would advise staying in Avoriaz as it is not a quick transfer between the 2. Avoriaz is a higher resort and has the better skiing.

I have been to the Morzine resort twice now once as a beginner and second as an intermediate/advanced level, and there is plenty there for the latter!

Ski school staff were extremely friendly and helpful and overall amazing teachers.

Aprés is where morzine wins it for me or France in general! They have in my opinion the best apres scene in Europe!

100% recommend to anyone thinking of booking the trip

It was great. Went first week of the season, and first day was busy, but other days were quick and easy. Lots of fresh snow and sunny days. The stash was good.

A popular resort , nice village, good bars and restaurants.... but it's just too low to be reliable for snow.
The last three years have seen mostly green fields with ribbons of manmade snow down at resort level. Sure, there is good skiing up in Avoriaz.... so go to Avoriaz.
The trip up to Avoriaz from Morzine takes a good hour by lift or bus and once you are up there you cant just pop back to your accommodation.
There is some great skiing to be had in the Portes du Soleil, but my advice would be to access it from Avoriaz.

Morzine is a great ski resort for beginners but also offers a lot of intermediate and advanced options for skiers and snowboarders of all abilities
Food and drink is really good but is on the expensive side.
But all in all is a really good resort.

Its a fabulous resort with incredible access to the ported du soleil ski area. Brilliant runs for all abilities, never too busy due to the size of the ported du soleil area. I really cant recommend this resort enough.
Once you get out past Avoriaz towards the Swiss border it often feels like you have entire runs to yourself, with ample opportunity to go off piste. And of course you can try the infamous Swiss wall when out this way!
The scale, range and quality of the region really makes for a great day of skiing.

Always been to the resort early January.
You have the access to Morzine and Let's Gets which is excellent value for money.
Only 1hr transfer from Geneva Airport which is a big plus for anyone who doesn't like that long transfer.
A beautiful original village offer wholesome meals.
Should there be issues with snowfall you can access avoriaz which is 1800m above sea level and has always got great snowfall.
A must for any skier or snowboarder that want something different.

Been here many times now, great for with friends, great for families! Great for beginners, those looking for challenging on piste runs and those looking for some fun in the parks and off piste too! The stash is epic! Sooo much fun!
Off the piste, the choice of bars for aprés is great and in the evening, restaurants are my friends and I are vegan and this is by far the best place we have been to in Europe for skiing for choices! 10/10 recommend! Ill be back soon!

We've been to Morzine/Les Gets 4 times. It's perfect for our intermediate ability and our family. The slopes are kept beautifully and the facilities are great.
Morzine itself is easy to navigate and the option to enjoy an ice hockey game is always fun. We will return next year!

Fantastic for Apres if thats what youre after! Or for the skier who prefers regular stops with breathtaking views.
The stars have to align and the weather needs to be perfect to enjoy some off piste or powder days.
High traffic means the groomed pistes will rather be mogul central or muddy by mid afternoon.
Great resort for groups!

Id say this beats 3 vallees, you get access (if you want it) to not just the French side but Swiss and the whole Les Gets side of pistes too so if youre looking to go far and wide then this is it. It has the Swiss Wall, if thats not on your skiing bucket list then it should be! As for apres, folie douce in Avoriaz, I need not say more. For those staying in Morzine its just a drunk ski and gondola and youre home. However if you like the more local side of things Happy Hours apres bar is where the seasonnaires go (take it from me, I was one), and its easy to get the bus back to town (just dont leave your skis behind!). Theyve got a range of parks so even if youve never tried it, theyll be something fun for you to do. Which goes the same for non-skiers and families, theres a wealth of restaurants and snow activities all over, including weekly fireworks and a light run on the Les Gets sides. I cant say more how much it can suit anyone and everyone!

I stayed and skied in Morzine for my first ever ski trip. The slopes were really great for someone with no ski experience and felt very safe with nice gradual increases in difficulty as I progressed through the slopes. Once I got my confidence up I attempted some off-piste skiing which was incredibly fun and felt safe too being so close to the piste slopes. The food in morzine was great and many places had a family friendly atmosphere in the town but some places didnt have great food quality. Overall I had an amazing experience here and cant wait to return in the next season.

I completed my instructor course here and it worked perfectly. The groomed runs in morzine are perfect to learn in at all levels and lift wait times were normally relatively fast. As a group of young people we always found somewhere to drink after and the restaurant selection was good. Only problem was snow coverage! But it is very easy to head over to avoriaz and enjoy the snow there.

I had amazing holiday in morzine, our hotel wasnt great we stayed in the mediline hotel in the Center of morzine we wish we had read the reviews before booking .. but was in a great location. The super morzine was really close to the hotel which helped us get on the slopes in the early mornings. Also the bus connections to other ways up were great too. In morzine there are lots of great places to eat and drink too so the party dosnt stop if your not wanting too. There are lots of shops nearby for everything you need for your trip, so have no fear of you have forgotten or broken something you need . Overall its was a great trip and I would definitely go back !!!

Really enjoyed my ski holiday here, the food and drink options are great. There is slopes for all ski levels and although I didnt have lessons I have heard that they are fun and helpful to get you upto speed for the slopes.

Morzine is a great resort however we had to go in half term and the slopes were very busy! Other than this I would recommend.

Great for all level of skiers and boarders! The extended pass gets you sooo much mountain to explore and theres something for everyone!
Off the piste are some well seasoned routes and I never felt unsafe.
The stash is SO MUCH FUN to play around in with friends!
Also being vegan, morzine has so many options, and were not talking just bean burgers, but full on vegan menus items! Above and beyond compared to many other French resorts Ive been to!
Great for friends, great for family, Ill be coming back

Lovely place, good for earing out and drinking, more on the expensive side. Not as family friendly as other resorts. Lifts very slow, however great skiing and overall a good resort.

We were pretty disappointed when we arrived in Morzine to see no snow at all(mid Feb) but learned on the first day with one gondola ride we were straight into Avoriaz where the snow had remained.
The Portes Du Soleil resort was good, plenty of runs, plenty of bars/restaurants to stop off at.
As an intermediate skier I had trouble the first few days with some of the blue and green slopes, as they were being used so much and not being groomed enough, moguls were forming even on some greens. I saw some beginner groups really struggling with this too.
The resort was overcrowded, the slopes near Avoriaz were ripped up before lunch time. However if you took the lifts to the top and went down the Swiss side of the resort, it was much quieter, seemed better groomed, and was a much more enjoyable time.
One of the days there was a big dropping of powder the night before, and this made for fantastic skiing, once you could get up the slopes that is. There were far too many people on the mountain, and half the lifts were closed until well past lunchtime, meaning a 45 min wait in a line (people just shoving around to try get to the front) to get up the mountain. This day alone meant we are very unlikely to return, just down to the poor management of the lifts, and no information being given as to how long until lifts would be opened, could be 10 minutes, could be 2 hours.
Morzine as a town was great though, lots of places to eat, drink, shop. Easy gotten around, the town was fantastic!
