Just returned from three and a half fantastic days skiing in the Three Vallies. What made the trip even better was the great little hotel Athena and the friendly manager Gautier. Nothing was to much bother for our group of ten with him even lending his ski gear to one who lost his case in transit flying into Lyon. Our... More

The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The rooms were very clean and well kept. The location was perfect for getting in and out of Meribel without having to get in the car. I turned up without my luggage for a long ski weekend after (my bag having missed the connection), this meant that I would not have been... More

It is easy to get to the hotel in Brides-les-Bains, in the winter I recommend snow tires and a four wheel drive though, as you need to get up and down steep, narrow roads. Free parking is provided. The reception is very friendly and helpful, the rooms are ok, clean and well heated, perfect for a ski holiday. We loved... More

The room was a bit small - especially for a 5-day stay and coming home every evening after skiing. The location is ok - an easy 5 minute walk to town. Had a car, but saw that a bus picked up skiers right at the top of the hill (and the gondola to the bases is only a 10 minute... More

This is a great hotel for a ski break. It is within 10 minutes walking distance from the Olympe gondola and provides a quieter town for families and couples. The staff at this hotel were helpful in all occasions and eager to brighten up your day. The cuisine is typically French with dishes that are filling and yet not taxing... More

We stayed there for the first week of July this year whilst on a mountain bike holiday with friends. Very friendly and helpful staff, including the manager Gaultier who drove us up to meribel one day with the bikes. B'fast and evening meals were OK and Good value, rooms were clean and bright, Typically French Alps layout, although rooms next... More

Enjoyed a one night stay before our trip up to Val Thorens. We had to wait for several minutes before anyone arrived to check us in. Rooms were small but clean and comfortable, and hotel is in a beautiful location by the river. We had to ask for a double though, as we were given a twin instead. Breakfast was... More

We were very happy with our choice. The staff couldn't have been more helpful & cooperative. The room was very comfortable although not large. The wi-fi worked well & did not go off at 10 as other reviews have said. I do not ski so was around during the day but the room was still a comfortable temperature (although being... More

I stayed at Hotel Athena with my wife and 2 other couples during February half term (probably the busiest week of the year), after looking for somewhere reasonably priced with great skiing. We were generally very impressed. The hotel is situated about a 5 minute walk from the main street which includes many hotels and a few bars and restaurants.... More
