Tignes Франція

Our December stay was spectacular. The hotel is chic and clean, defined by breathtaking mountain views and incredibly friendly GOs.
​The Exclusive Collection (EC) Advantage
The EC upgrade is essential for a seamless stay. Our suite was expansive, featuring two bathrooms and perfect separation between the parents' and kids' rooms. Service was world-class: Bruna provided instant WhatsApp support for every need, and Emrah delighted us daily with creative towel art. The private ski room is a game-changer—no lines and gear was ready every morning.
​Atmosphere & Amenities
The après-ski energy is fantastic, with premium drinks and vibrant nightly parties. However, the pool was a disappointment; while the space is beautiful and the air is warm, the water was too cold for swimming.
​Dining Notes
The food was inconsistent. While salads and desserts were excellent, the meat dishes were underwhelming, and the dining room feels quite hectic. Pro-tips: Use the 5th-floor restaurant for a better lunch experience, and always reserve a specific table for dinner to escape the buffet rush.
​Verdict
Despite the minor issues, this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The world-class skiing and elite service make it a premier choice for a luxury winter holiday.

1. service/ food/ facilities

• excellent job! The dining room staff work SO hard and with great attitude. Plates are cleared quickly. food is great! The actual space itself is very clean.

2. French language exclusivity

• Unlike the our experience at CM punta Cana where the CM was almost exclusively done in French (despite being based in a Spanish speaking country!), our experience at Tignes was much better. Many staff spoke English. There was no palpable disdain if you did NOT understand French. Occasional lapses (ie a reminder to make Christmas Eve dinner reservations was only posted in French) leading us to show up and be totally confused when they asked us if we made a buffet reservation.

3. ski instruction

• we usually ski in Colorado, and this is where Tignes is lacking if you don’t speak French. LIft tickets and group classes are included, but the group classes are more of a guided ski tour with limited feedback due to language. IF you cannot “get it” the first way it’s explained, due to limited language ability, the instructors cannot try to explain it another way. They repeat the same sentence. This is where we feel like if we skiied in the US, we would have progressed more with group lessons. We did try a lunch time private lesson and requested a high level English speaker, and that was helpful.

4. Kids club

• zero orientation to the club. Multiple English speakingparents confused at where our 11-13 year olds were at lunchtime on the first day. No one told us they would not be with the kids club eating. kids club staff kind of just shrugged their shoulders. Better information “if your kids are 11 and up, plan to meet them somewhere after morning ski. Bc they won’t be eating with the kids club.”

5). Entertainment

• European humor. We didn’t get it, but the staff worked hard and had good energy. They gave a very thoughtful present to all the kids on Christmas.

Good ski resort. Club not one of the bests. Lines at the dinning room were way too long. Massage was not very good.

Enjoyed it a lot especially with maya lenny and alix and they gave us the best experience I had the best time in club med and hope to come agian
