Val d'Isère Reviews & Ratings

The most amazing trip of my life!! Val d’isere is really beautiful and it’s not just the skiing but the nature and mountains is really something else, paired with amazing restaurants and food it’s really at the top places to be for skiing in my opinion! Really hoping to go there again!!

I’ve skied in a lot of resorts over many years.
Val never fails to deliver - great terrain on and off piste, lovely town, efficient lifts and resort shuttle bus runs in to the night

The best resort in the world. Experience how the other half live & ski, with great runs and quality lift infrastructure

Val d’Isere is a great resort , part of one of the world’s best ski areas ( together with Tignes).
A good mix of relaxing and easy runs, but with classic challenges too.
The far side of the ski area is high and snow sure on a glacier.
Off piste is extensive.
Can be a bit expensive for accommodation, apres ski etc.
Runs back to resort get scrapped too.
But there are down lift options with gondolas.

Stayed in Victoria lodge which fantastic, great staff,great food, easy access to transport system. Slopes were in good condition ,a bit icey in places, great powder on last day

Great resort with great slopes, lifts and staff. We had great weather which really showed us the resort in all it's glory, Breath-taking views of the beautiful mountains. The slopes were fairly quiet so felt confident enough to try the blacks which were super fun!

Amazing resort, plenty to do on and off the slopes! Huge ski area and lots of lovely restaurants and bars to visit in the evening. Highly recommend.

My lessons were cancelled the day before I travelled but they accommodated similar hours of private lessons which was amazing!

The lift pass is expensive but you have so much mountain to explore. Apres ski is wonderful but the restaurants are sublime!

I loved the resort and all it has to offer. Nightlife was so fun and the skiing was even better. Would definitely go again and again. I think I’m sad that I’m not there right now.

Run down the world cup downhill ,eating out night life and many bars ,train to top overlooking all 3 ski resort

I visited val d'isere ski resort from january 25th to february 1st 2026 with 9 others where we stayed in a catered chalet. The snow conditions on that particular week were outstanding as we had snow most nights meaning the next morning had amazing powder both on the slopes and off the slopes. There was tonnes of powder off piste so getting out early was amazing to get the fresh snow. I had 2 friends who had ski school lessons for half of the week and loved the instructor and said he helped them improve a lot more this year. the Apres ski on offer in val disere is really good we loved Coco Ricos and we were in their most nights for both the live band and the dj afterwards. in terms of eating out in val disere there are many many options including a large range of restaurants in the main town ranging from well priced to luxury restaurants. On the mountain there's also a good range which can be reached on skis or through getting a pedestrian pass such as eating at La Folie Douce or restaurants up the Solaise lift. Overall, i think val disere is the perfect location for a ski holiday for both keen skiers and people who may not ski a lot either as there are plenty of options to keep you occupied on the slopes and a vast range of ski area on the slopes.

Lovely very large resort with a lot of very wonderful top end restaurants (often bookings needed in advance). Lifts busy at peak times and runs very busy during school holidays as full of ski schools.

Even though there hadn’t been any snow in 2 weeks the pistes were still stunning! The apres is always good and we were very lucky with the weather it was lush.

Val is truly one of the great ski resorts! The Espace Killy will keep intermediate and advanced skiers busy for weeks, with lots of high, wide snow sure slopes. The off piste is great if you have a guide, though it can be hard to get fresh tracks with lots of advanced riders hitting the terrain.

I visited with my beginner husband, and the slopes are surprisingly good for beginners too, particularly the greens on the Bellevarde side of the resort. Though the official run gradings should be viewed with caution - the greens/blues down to resort are tricky for a true beginner.

The resort itself is pretty and fairly quaint for a large French resort (and definitely compared to neighbouring Tignes). The apres is great fun, including Folie and some fun bars at the bottom of the slopes. Accommodation, food and drinks can be pricey though, although there are more affordable options.

Overall it’s definitely a must visit resort!

Brillant skiing with a huge amount of pistes, as well as the best après in France.
Great restaurants and choice however quite pricey amazing high altitude skiing

I've skied in Val d'isere/Tignes on eight occasions and it never disappoints. Even as late as the end of April all runs were kept open back to the village.

Wonderful resort, great snow and apres options fab for all types of groups would definitely recommend to people to visit.

I had a very good and interesting vacation, for me the slopes are very important, and it has a lot of slopes, and for a week you can discover them all! I would like another vacation here!

Great place lots of option and so many mountains to choose from.
lovely place to visit lots of options for food and drink.

Loved the stay, atmosphere. Ski school was amazing for adukts and kids. Very organized. Slopes very nice.
