WONDERFUL! Great value, basic, but newly refurbished – lovely hot powerful showers which never ran out of water, a godsend in –20 deg temperatures!! The best thing about the ours blanc apartments though, was the staff. One of our party went missing on the slopes, and after us having no luck with the police when late that night he hadn’t... More

We booked through travel agents, we picked hotel as it stated it had been fully renovated and looked lovely. We arrived at reception which looked promising, new and well decorated. However on allocation to our room we arrived to small bunk beds and an old room that hadn't seen any renovation since it was built. We went back to reception... More

We paid £1456 euros for a very poor quality one bedroomed appartment sleeping 5. The electrical sockets were hanging off the wall and one of the 3 did not work. The light fitting was falling out of the ceiling. There was only a hand held shower with no hook or shower curtain thus soaking the bathroom everytime someone showered. The... More

We spent several days in Alpes d'Huez as several family members were undertaking the tough annual triathalon. The room/suite is extremely well designed and thoughtout with cupboards and hooks in all the right places. The kitchen facilities were good, the bathrooms OK and the beds hard! Notionally the suite sleep 7 adults, but that is definitely a squeeeze, but four... More

We had a week at these self catering residences, not to be confused with the up market hotel next door of the same name! The appartment was very small, but so are our kids (6&4) so it wasn't a problem. The room could have been cleaner, dust on top of the skirting boards. There is no oven, just a microwave... More

Spent a week skiing in Alpe D'Huez and stayed at the Hotel Ours Blanc. The food was excellent and the staff helpful. Unfortunately the 'central location' meant that late night revellers walk past the hotel from clubs/ bars in the early hours of the morning making a lot of noise. Also, when it snows, the diggers started clearing the roads... More

Many thanks for posting your review. Our residence is centrally located and is ideal for ski in/ski out customers. Unfortunately this does mean many skiers will be passing the property après ski. We have however, noted your point about the ski lessons and this will be passed onto management for further consideration. Best wishes More

As an all male group of eight 40 somethings we travelled from Gatwick to Alpe D'Huez for a week of Hard Core skiing, no partying, no boozing and no late nights, we were there with the sole purpose to ski and board! The transfer from Grenoble to Alpe D'huez was a long one due to heavy traffic through Grenoble meaning... More
