Access to the ski area is easy with the chairlift close by and the ski bus for beginners a short walk away.

The location, quality of accommodation and attractive design of this building make it a fantastic choice. Built into the hillside in the old part of Morel, it has uninterrupted views down to the village of Raffort and the Tougnette mountain. Built with local stone and timber, there is a sauna and large open-plan living area with Satellite TV, a DVD player and a feature fireplace on the top floor with a mezzanine above.

Large windows open onto the terrace and there is a children’s playroom under the eaves. All rooms are en suite and most have a balcony or access to the terrace. Whilst parking can be difficult in Meribel, Chalet Astemy boasts five parking spaces. This is a lovely choice for your stay in Meribel.

Méribel Resort Info

Méribel lies in the heart of the Three Valleys, which remains one of the most popular ski areas in the Alps. It has 200 lifts, 600km of well linked, all-ability pistes and off-piste to match. Intermediates will flourish, but the weaker and stronger skiers aren't overlooked, as there is something for everyone. Boarders and freestyelers have the coice of 2 snowparks, with 5 more in other Three Valleys resorts.

 

Méribel ski resort

The resort actually consists of five separate parts but the two main areas, which comprise the vast majority of the accommodation, are Méribel-Centre and Méribel-Mottaret. Both are largely chalet and apartment based, with a limited choice of hotels, meaning that the restaurant selection could be better. There are, however, easily enough bars and clubs to keep the younger crowd happy.As with anywhere popular, slight queues can build up and the pistes and roads may become crowded in peak season. Also, prices can be almost as steep as the slopes themselves.

Overall, a good, if disjointed ski resort at the centre of a great domain. Aesthetically quite appealing because of the many chalet-style buildings, Méribel's biggest plus is its location at the heart of the Trois Vallées. This should override almost any criticism, although if you want to avoid Brits, this isn't the place…
