Meribel Mottaret - a cut above
Review of Méribel by SuzanneW

Advantages: Reliable snow, door-to-door skiing, huge terrain
Disadvantages: Expensive

Meribel-Mottaret takes a lot of beating as a ski resort. Smack bang in the middle of Les Trois Vallees, arguably the biggest and best skiing area in the world, it benefits from great snow, a wide variety of accommodation and decent shopping. At 1700 meters, it is some 250 meters higher than the main village of Meribel and about 5-10 minutes further on by road, making it effectively a self-contained resort. Access is easy from Lyon (St. Exupery) ... Read review

Discover Meribel
Review of Méribel by snowqueen76

Advantages: Guaranteed Snow / Amazing Ski Area/Great Apres Ski/Excellent Restaurants
Disadvantages: French School Holidays.Very crowded.

Meribel just has to be one of the best ski or snowboard resorts in the world. SKIING & SNOWBOARDING: BEGINNERS: Total Beginners do not need a lift pass for the first day or two.There is a free drag lift at the Altiport Area that not many people know about.(Catch the Free Bus from Town).The same applies to Snowboarders.In fact I know snowboarders who spent all week at the Altiport and never bought a pass at all.However it can be boring and a simple ...

Meribel - Mottaret Skiing Heaven?
Review of Méribel by tomgrahamehewitt

Advantages: Location, Piste Area, Snow
Disadvantages: Night life

Accomodation I said in the Le Hameua Mottaret appartments, these are located right at the upper most end of the Mottaret resort, just a short ski away from lifts to take you away on your days skiing. With the ability to ski to and from your door, Lets be honest thou it is never door to door, it was a short 1 min work to the main slope area. So i couldnt really complain much about that. Room: The accomodation was of adequate quality, a simple ... Read review

If You Like Skiing - Go To Meribel
Review of Méribel by LittleMissBrainy

Advantages: huge areas to ski in
Disadvantages: a bit expensive

Having been to Meribel twice in the last three years, I can thoroughly recommend going there. We booked with Meriski, and stayed in one of their larger chalets. There were 11 of us (three children). The chalets are absolutely gorgeous, open log fires, huge patio doors leading out onto a large balcony which went halfway around the chalet. We had two live-in staff, who were fantastic. They cooked and cleaned for us and generally treated us like ... Read review

Merry by name and by nature
Review of Méribel by mouse1

Advantages: too many to mention
Disadvantages: perhaps geared more to the advanced skier

Meribal is, by far and away, the best resort i have visited - i have skied in Austria, Switzerland, North America and France). Though extremely enjoyable for the advanced skier, it may be less so for those wanting to learn. The pistes are varied and challenging and can catch out the best of skiers. Furthermore, the resort is, by far and away, not the most expensive by any means - if you are after the exclusive skiing holiday, then Verbier should ... Read review

Meribel to drive
Review of Méribel by Muddymotox

Advantages: Ski Area, Snow, Shuttle service
Disadvantages: Night life

Meribel is roughly a 20 hour drive from london crusing at around 80mph. on my trip we stopped of in chamberry for a overnight stop, its about 70miles from the resort and thanks to some advise from the man who sold me my snow chains it saved me alot of time. The drive down is best if you plan the route, head down to lyon (going the east way around paris), there are signs most of the way. from lyon head towards chamberry. in the morning after ...

Meri money
Review of Méribel by luli

Advantages: More to do than ski
Disadvantages: elitism

This is a great resort for the experienced skier. Meribel is for the snow sport fanantic. If you are the type wanting to learn. This is not the best environment. Got to America where you are accepted at any level. Meribel is a beautiful place with loads to do other than ski or snowboard. I enjoyed the unspoilt scenery. This is the place for the avid sportsperson. Also, for those who enjoy the apres ski as much as the sport in itself. There ... Read review
