I stayed at Kings for a week with my teenage daughter. We booked late so had to take the family room for four people even though we were only two. This worked well as she didn't disturb my sleep when she came back late. The family room had two tiny bedrooms, a very small bathroom and sitting room. The decor was decidedly jaded and a very peculiar mix of tatty old pine furniture with quite funky modern bed throws and curtains. It wasn't a good mix. The sofa was probably the most uncomfortable thing I've ever tried to sit on. At approx £545 per night ( and in fairness we could have had 4 people but it would have been incredibly cramped) which included a very basic continental breakfast I would have at least expected tea making facilities in the room. There isn't. The sitting area downstairs is unattractive - again a funky mix of very old furniture and wooden clad walls with really grotesque modern painted canvases of African wild life. It was just plain weird. Internet access was a ropey old computer in a corner which was extremely unreliable. The only two redeeming features were the friendly receptionists and the shuttle service to the slopes was fine although one of the drivers was impossibly grumpy - and sadly a young English man. Overall, a fairly dreadful experience. Definitely not worth the cost even if it were 4 people. Had it been cheap as chips and billed as 1 or 2 star then fine but Kings, Verbier just doesn't make the mark.
Oops, I should add that the family room is at the front of the hotel but also has an alleyway running along the side. One night i was awake until after 5 am with horrendous noise of drunk people shouting and singing. It was generally very noisy at night.
