We came on mass, 3 generations of family ranging from 8 years to 70 plus!! Very good location, lovely staff who ensured that nothing was too much trouble, and great food. Simply a fantastic skiing holiday. The resort of Vaujany has lost nothing of its charm or great skiing. (last time I was here was some 7 years ago). It... More

We didnt stay at the hotel Rissou but we went two evenings to eat there. Food is delicious, all six courses. David and the other chefs are really passionate about their cooking so go along and try it. Brendan is also the same about his cheese course. Thanks everyone, a very enjoyable experience. We may see you again next year. More

Vaujany is a delightful resort; small enough to be full of traditional character, large enough to have plenty of facilities for sports and entertainment (Swimming Pool and Ice Rink!). Hotel Rissiou is wonderfully located for shops, ski lift, etc, but quiet enough for a little peace if you want it. The team that runs it during the Winter season are... More

We came here about 16 years ago when our kids were very young and were learning to ski. The food and wine were great then. And now we went back with kids, girlfriend etc in 2012. Hotel hadn't changed at all. The rooms are fine (our bed was a bit iffy and I have a bad back - not a... More

Having somewhat misinterpreted this hotel after booking a meal in the restuarant despite not being a hotel guest I have nothing but praise for this establishment and its staff (especially Brendan the manager) As a non-resident you are basically joining those staying in the hotel for their evening meal - there is no menu, it is a fixed choice. But... More

The Rissiou as a building may have a few areas in need of a face lift but it is located in an Alpine village and is in keeping with the locale. Most rooms have balconies that provide the most stunning views of the Alps. The rooms are very old school French, small, warm but cosy and after all one is... More

Wow - what fantastic food in Hotel Rissiou, booked through SkiPeak. This was probably some of the best, if maybe the best, food I've had on a Chalet holiday. We had circa 6 courses each night, all light, interesting, tasty and incredibly creative. It really ellavated a good hotel to great!! Jason. More

Chalet style hotel,welcoming staff,wonderful food and rooms spotless every day! A couple of other "non-skiers" like myself,could have done with a bit more local info on transport/trips to Grenoble etc. as Vaujany is a ghost town (albeit very pretty!!) once the skiers leave by about 10 am.,but go up on the double escalator and enjoy a coffee at the top...

Just had another great week in Vaujany and the Rissiou was perfect for our group. The hotel is rustic and basic but the food and atmosphere more than compensate. It's the staff though that make a holiday at the Rissiou so good - from the chefs (great chaps - well done) to the waiters (Lauren - thank you, you were... More

For our 3rd time at the Rissiou we stayed this time for Christmas. Exceptional evening dinners as ever, in particular the Christmas Eve 9 course gala dinner, and the equally scrumptious Christmas Day dinner. The staff are all so friendly and helpful, and requests even to borrow sledges and find the best sledging runs were accommodated. The hotel is rustic,... More
