Hotel Avenue Lodge - Bedroom

Set in the heart of Val d’Isère, the Avenue Lodge is a fantastic hotel in a great location. The interior combines a contemporary feel with a mountain feel. We offer the hotel on a bed and breakfast basis with option to upgrade to half board, so you can enjoy traditional French cuisine in a lovely atmosphere. The impressive spa provides a relaxing environment to unwind with an indoor pool, jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. Or enjoy a post ski drink in the stylish bar and lounge area.

Alpine style

The charming Avenue Lodge has the classic style of the Tarentaise region. The hotel's architecture and interior design were influenced by the work of Jean Philippe Nuel, who creates luxurious spaces across the globe. The colours and the furniture in each area work together to create a sense of harmony and design. The mountain's ever-present presence is brought to life by the use of local materials with warm wood throughout, fur bedspreads and antlers adorning the walls. The spacious rooms offer a pleasantly trendy environment, and the luxurious design of the baths create a space for pure relaxation.

Food and drink

Each morning you can fuel up for the day with the extensive buffet breakfast, including a continental offering with local produce and daily hot option. For a relaxing start to the day, a continental breakfast is also available to have in your room. When you have returned from a day on the Tignes-Val d'Isere slopes, the lounge-bar is the perfect spot to enjoy a drink with friends or family, each Friday live music can be enjoyed with a cocktail or two. When it's time for dinner, a traditional French menu awaits you.

Soothing spa

The hotel features a magnificent spa which you can relax in after a long day of skiing or on days when they simply don't feel like hitting the slopes. Take a refreshing swim in the pool, or visit one of the two saunas or the hammam to ease any aches or pains in your legs. In addition to that, there are two jacuzzies that are wonderful for unwinding and relaxing in. Massages and other beauty treatments are offered so you can thoroughly unwind in a tranquil setting.
