As a treat for my 50th, my husband and I spent a week in this hotel in Vaujany in late March, what a find! Although it is basic and in no ways flash, it is so friendly and relaxed. The staff are great, always willing to help and hard working. Brendan in particular is an excellent Manager and a good... More

I have been organising ski trips for over 50 years so can probably claim to have extensive experience of ski company operators. I have to say that Ski Peak has to be up there with the very best. The whole experience from booking to travel arrangements to accomodation was friendly, quietly efficient and untroubled. The office staff were happy to... More

When you find somewhere like this there's a huge temptation to keep quiet - but this would be doing a disservice to Manager Brendan and his delightful team of committed, hard working and ever cheerful staff. They truly were a pleasure to be around and made my first stay at Rissiou a heartwarming experience. The hotel itself is simple and... More

I had a very good stay at the Rissiou in January. As a solo traveller (the friend I was going with had to pull out at the last minute), I really appreciated the friendliness and sociability of the hotel, expertly fostered by Brendan and his team. One of the major advantages of a small outfit like SkiPeak is the sense... More

Just back from our best ski holiday ever. Although Ski Peak can't be held responsible for the fantastic snow conditions they definitely do get the credit for every other aspect of a fabulous week. The hotel isn't palatial but it is clean, warm, comfortable and the food is outstanding; if your focus is skiing then what more could you ask... More

We have just returned from a very enjoyable week at Hotel Rissiou. It’s true that the hotel is quite tired, but the rooms are spacious and those with south-facing views are good. The food was great, the staff friendly and the manager Brendan does an informative and amusing cheese presentation! The dinner experience and the sociable environment was all that... More

Went to Vaujanay with a couple of friends (father & son - father had been previously, otherwise we would never have thought of going). Who has ever heard of Vaujany? I probably shouldn't write this in case you all go and spoil the place! Hotel Rissiou is a little gem. Brendan the manager runs it for Ski Peak in the... More

Just come back from a week at the Rissiou. Snow great, and hotel really comfortable as always. Food was brilliant and Brendan's wine list is superb. His cheese choices and speeches are also great fun. All in all highly recommended!

I recently had a very enjoyable week stay at this hotel. Brendan and his staff were very welcoming and helpful. Nothing too much trouble. The food in particular is worth a mention, all meals were of a very high standard. The hotel is close to the slopes with good access via the gondola.
