Accommodation in Les Deux Alpes
No one would call Les Deux Alpes a pretty ski village, but it has plenty of good value hotels and self-catering apartments, and a few chalets. And if L2A itself sounds a bit too loud and brash for you, you can always stay down the mountain in the traditional village of Venosc which is linked by lift to the main resort.
Around 2km long and two streets wide, Les Deux Alps is not a pretty resort, but this Las Vegas of the Alps has a lively feel. If you want something quieter, stay in one of its outlying suburbs like Mont de Lans, or try Venosc, a charming mountain village connected to Les Deux Alpes by lift.
Life in the resort is centred on the one main road, although there is also a parallel road which forms the one-way circuit and runs to the foot of the main ski area. Bars and restaurants spread themselves out all along the road, but the main action takes place at the end of the resort, where there are large apartment complexes going up the hill. You are best advised to stay in the centre or towards this end. The resort is not attractive but has a lively feel and the lights of the town look very pretty from above at night.
One alternative option is to stay in one of the lower villages which tend to be a lot cheaper, less boisterous and far prettier. Venosc, in particular has the look and feel of an authentic mountain village. It’s connected to Les Deux Alpes by lift but there is no piste between them.
Mont de Lans is a bit of half-way house – not as charming as Venosc but not so out on a limb – and this compromise is perfect for some skiers, especially families.
