We decided to come to Verbier for 4 days of skiing very last minute and the Hotel Bristol was the only hotel we could find in Verbier with any available rooms. Not horrible but we wouldnt stay here again.
Positives:
-Good location, near the main roundabout in Verbier. Close to the shuttle bus to the lifts, or walkable to the Medran lift.
-People at reception were very friendly.
-Hotel is clean
Negatives:
-Central location means very close to the bars of Verbier which are open all night. We have been woken up every night from 2-4 am by pounding music and drunk people in the street which is right under our window. Bought ear plugs which helped a bit.
-Suites arent really suites. Its a room with a glassed in conservatory type thing attached to it. Nice (and would be beautiful in the summer) but if you are paying for and expecting a suite this isnt it.
-Walls in hotel are paper thin.
-Shower door in bathroom needs to be reset, doesnt prevent water from getting everywhere.
-Breakfast room is tiny and often there arent any available seats. Staff are harried and unfriendly.
Verbier itself is a fun village with good energy and beautiful mountain views. People are nice, skiing has been great, apres at the Fer a Cheval is excellent. If you are here in the high season you definitely need to book dinner or you'll wander around trying to find someplace with an opening as we did for a few nights. Restaurants overall are good.
If you want to party all night and just stagger back to your hotel at 4, this is the place for you. If you want to have good apres drinks, dinner and then a good sleep (or just sleep between the hours of 1 and 8 am), you might want to find a different hotel on a quieter street near th center, of which there are plenty. Just do it early as they book up quickly!
