The best things about our stay here: 1. Location - The gondolas and lifts to access all 3 valleys are right outside the hotel (the closest one is 20 yards away, the farthest about 50 yards). In fact, you can be on top of Saulire and skiing Creux a couple of times, before the Courchevel crowd even arrives. (DO ski... More

My partner and I spent a week on a half board basis at Hotel Alpen Ruitor in Merribel-Mottaret during the last week on January 2012. We occupied a standard room. We could not fault this hotel; the location could not be more central in Motterat yet it is quite and peaceful. We enjoyed a valley view from our room. The... More

The location of the hotel was very nice - you just need to carry your skies for 15 meters from your ski locker to put them on. The room was not spacious, but was sufficient to comfortably stay in.

This means that you are well positioned to step straight on to the lifts to ski Meribel, or to go to Val Thorens or Courchevel. It also means that the snow is better. A great hotel for couples...

We stayed at the Alpenruitor in March 2006. We were quite a big group so we occupied 4 rooms in total so we saw all the different types of rooms. The rooms are not huge but normal alpine high-end standard. I would not say this hotel is luxurious but very cosy, clean and exclusive. The staff was friendly, the dinners... More
