Hôtel Au Chamois d'Or by Les Etincelles

This hotel truly had it all (except AC, but even in mid-summer, high in the alps, you'll be fine without it). The location is lovely as the property is nestled at the end of town at the base of the mountains. There is convenient parking right in the front, and you can walk out of the lobby and you'll be looking at the ski lifts. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My room was comfortable, clean, and rustic yet modern. When you wake up in the morning you'll find a fantastic breakfast waiting for you in the restaurant. There is seating inside and out, and the vast spread offers something for everyone. I would recommend the Au Chamois D'or to anyone visiting L'Alpe d'Huez.

In a last minute extension to our summer cycling holiday to watch the final stage of the Tour de Femme, we booked that last room available in Alpe d'Huez for two nights, the room happened to be a lovely Cesar suite which was a hardship we had to bear with a smile! A very cosy hotel with helpful staff, great food (book a table for dinner as they get full), amazing location for the tour finish (and I guess skiing), and fun little indoor pool. Not much more to add really other than it is highly recommended and we would most certainly head back. Everything one would expect from a 5 star hotel.

I came with 2 friends for the alpe d'huez triathlon and the staff did all they could to accomodate to our special needs. Nothing but kudos :)

We visited this hotel 8 years ago. It was a nice hotel with good service and food. We decided to stay again March 2024. But this time we experienced alot changed. Inexperienced and lazy staff, limited food at the restaurant, average service according to a 5 star hotel. Any 3 star hotel can easily provide the same service which this hotel provided.

We were here for tomorrowland and happy we picked this hotel. It was really nice and next to the lifts, we could ski in and ski out. The sauna was perfect after skiing, it was free and you dont need reservations. The staff, service and breakfast were perfect. Theres even private hotel parking so you dont have to worry about finding parking. We will pick it again for next year.

Took my two sons for a week ski trip. The service from all the friendly staff was extremely good. Genuine caring people who really went the extra mile to make it special. The spa offers exactly what you need, massage, jacuzzi, sauna, steam and pool with fluffy robes and slippers. The lounge is a lovely dimly lit area with huge comfy sofas and large open fireplace. Location is perfect right at the bottom of the main DMC1 ski lift with ski-in right to the ski lockers. Every little detail has been thought through by people who care. Best hotel and people in Alpes D’Huez in my opinion. Highly recommended.

I booked as a last minute booking whilst on a driving trip with my 10 year old son, and had the pleasure of staying 2 nights. Fantastic location beside a variety of ski slopes and scenic mountain views. Although we don’t ski, we had great fun on hired sledges. The rooms were cosy, clean and well decorated. There’s a relaxing spa with pool, hot tub, sauna and steam room (had a lovely massage!). The evening food choices in the restaurant were limited but tasted great (we liked the entrecôte steak); not sure why some reviewers grumbled about the food? Breakfast had a small but satisfactory selection. Best of all, the service from all staff members was great, every one went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. We look forward to visiting again!

Très bel hôtel ancien, dans son pur jus alpin avec large prédominance de bois. Notre suite junior « Hugo » en bois clair, déploie une belle superficie d’environ 50+ m2 avec sa propre cheminée ; bénéficie d’une belle terrasse avec une jolie vue, et comporte un petit étage intérieur avec 2 lits pour les enfants (mezzanine). Le petit déjeuner est bon, avec un large choix sur les tables du buffet. Le restaurant est ouvert l’été mais uniquement pour les diners, 6 jours sur 7, il est également bon. Le chef est chaleureux, et à notre demande nous a préparé un succulent carré d’agneau à l’ail des ours ! Juste un petit mot sur le dessert et plus particulièrement celui entièrement à base de chocolat que je juge irrésistible ! Accueil sympathique au bar avec des excellents et originaux cocktails. On se sent réellement bien dans cet hôtel très chaleureux qui bénéficie d’une grande terrasse et d’un jardin dans lequel on peut pratiquer la pétanque et le badminton. Il y a également une petite salle dédiée au tennis de table et au babyfoot. Le directeur M. Ugo Joubert est omni présent, prend le temps de bavarder et se soucie réellement du bien-être de ses hôtes, tout comme son équipe : Claire, Max, le barman,…..etc. Un ou deux petits points d’amélioration : le service du soir en chambre qui ne passe étonnement que 6 soirs par semaine ; l’attente durant le dîner qui peut être longue et qui nécessiterait pour y remédier une personne de plus en salle….Rien de bien grave. En résumé, on en repart, après notre séjour de plus de 2 semaines avec nostalgie et regret !

Court séjour très reposant dans un cadre agréable et prestigieux. La période estivale rend le lieu plus calme et intime que l'hiver ce qui permet de profiter pleinement de toutes les prestations (spa, terrasse, salons).
