How to choose the best hotel in La Plagne?
Time to pack your bags for skiing? You have chosen the superb domain of La Plagne: you are one of the connoisseurs and you are looking for the best for your hotel. But you still hesitate. Here is our list of criteria to focus on so that you don’t make a mistake and that your ski trip is really successful!
1. Choose a Zen station
If you have chosen La Plagne, you know that it is one of the largest ski areas in Europe. But also one of the richest in possibilities since it is part of Paradiski®: a domain of 425 km of trails through forests, dolines and glaciers where all levels are represented. Not to mention its mosaic of villages, 11 in total, which dot the resort. So which one to choose?
We have a soft spot for Belle-Plagne, the well named one. Built on a mountainside in the Savoyard architectural tradition, in stone, wood and lauze, it is a human-sized resort, entirely pedestrian. Your cars will be stored in one of the covered parking lots serving your hotel. For shopping, everything can be done on foot in the many stores of the village, where you can also find bars and restaurants with a warm atmosphere. You can even reach Plagne Bellecôte by gondola for free, to enjoy its ice rink or an escape game. Facing south, Belle-Plagne also enjoys a beautiful sunshine. It is the ideal village to recharge your batteries in La Plagne!
2. A hotel at the foot of the slopes
For an ideal ski holiday, you should also think about the location of your hotel within the resort. Being at the foot of the slopes is non-negotiable. In Belle-Plagne, theHotel Carlina has a privileged location: you push the door and you are on the slopes. A real start on skis! You can store your skis in your private ski locker after a great day of skiing.
3. With a magical view
What an incomparable pleasure it is to open the shutters every morning to a dreamlike landscape. No way to go without. At the Carlina, each room is southwest facing and has a breathtaking view of the mountain from a balcony or terrace.
4. Real comfort
At the Carlina, you can enjoy 4-star comfort whether you come as a couple or as a family. Standard, superior or suites, each room is spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated. But also equipped with an LCD TV and an internet access for your cocooning evenings. The special family rooms also offer a children’s area so that everyone can be comfortable.
5. A luxury spa
If for you a day of skiing without a Jacuzzi is a bit like a good cake without whipped cream, choose your hotel according to its spa. At the Carlina you will find a solarium, an indoor pool with a view of the peaks, a large Jacuzzi, a steam room and a sauna to relax. To prolong the pleasure, you can also book body and face treatments with the mountain plant products of the Pure Altitude brand. And to keep in shape, you will enjoy a fitness room!
6. Quality user-friendly spaces (and a gourmet restaurant)
A pleasant hotel is of course privacy, but it also offers quality, convivial spaces to meet. At the Carlina you can sip a cocktail, have lunch or dinner in an elegant and cosy room where wood and leather dominate. You can also choose to do the same on the sunny terrace facing the mountains. In the restaurant, you can enjoy refined Savoyard-inspired cuisine proposed by chef Thibault Schach and his team. Their trademark: low temperature cooking.
7. What about my 4-legged friend?
Animal lovers, you don’t want to leave your four-legged friend at the kennel during your vacations? Some hotels accept pets with prior agreement. This is the case of the Carlina Hotel. Another point for him!
