Our first visit to this hotel.
We mainly chose this hotel as it had a swimming pool, jacuzzi, & steam/sauna room.
A very unusual concept, the phone is a sweet only at certain times. So calling with any questions is difficult to get answers too.
Check-in is unusually after 5pm.
We arrived on time, checked in & were handed our bed linen. Very basic first impression.
The room was warm, clean & up together but very dated.
The room set up was back to front as on trying to pull the double bed down it landed on the table & chairs.
The spare bedroom was passable.
The shower was very bad.. Hot then cold then the water dribbled out, not the best when you have shampoo on your hair.
Food set up was confusing then when we tried to book food we were told the kitchen is closed as they gave a few issues.
The structure of the hotel was noticeably in major need of repairs. The main road had some large pot holes.
The swimming pool/spa was actually surprisingly good & all facilities were working.
We were so lucky to have 6” of snow over the time we were there, so the skiing was amazing.
The town “Mont Dore” is quite tied with many buildings dilapidated & looking very tied.
What shops are there, mostly are selling the same items. Ski hire, ski items for purchase, souvenirs, restaurants, bars, cured meats.
Tourism is there main form of income so giving TLC to the ski town is a must.
The skiing was great especially after having a lot of newly laid snow.
We shall return to ski.
