Le Val Thorens, France
Dating back to the 1970s, Le Val Thorens was one of the ski resort’s very first hotels. In December 2021 it reopened after a big revamp, holding onto its 70s spirit but with some shiny new facilities added. After a day on the slopes, recuperate at the updated spa, which features a sauna, swimming pool and hammam alongside a selection of treatments, many specifically created for skiing, such as a massage designed to combat the effects of high altitude. New life has also been breathed into the bedrooms, which are designed for ultimate cosiness, with balconies offering spectacular 360-degree views of the region.
