LE BISTROT DE L'AVENUE LOGDE

Acceuil tres chaleureux et sans pretention dans cet etablissement en sous-sol (pas de vue sur la rue donc). Nourriture tres correcte, avec un bemol sur les pates au pesto et burrata > trop cuites et sans saveur (mais bon, ce n est pas un reso italien !). Pour le reste, carte tres sympa et prix raisonnable pour la station. Ideal en famille.

Amazing service

Review of the bar only:

There are a crowd of us that have been going to the Avenue Lodge bar for a few weeks now. On a Friday they have excellent live music and there is a lovely atmosphere.
Unfortunately, the service is so atrociously bad we have decided to stop going. There are plenty of staff, yet it seems that only one person is allowed to serve us. The others spend most of their time standing around, looking lost.
There is a barman behind the bar but you are not allowed to order there. It is table service only.
The one active waiter (let's call him "Dunning Kuger") is very personable and charming, but he is so slow and ignores all other guests while taking care of one group at glacial speed. So about 30 people are waiting patiently to be served, and can't get any of the staff to take any interest.
The previous time I went, it took 20 minutes just to pay my bill. So this time I asked to "pay as I go". Dunning Kuger told me that was impossible. I would have to wait. I complained to him about the slow service and he simply invited me to go elsewhere.
It is such a shame that such a lovely place allows such terrible service. For contrast, we have also been to the bars: "The Blizzard", "Avancher" and "Savoyard" where the service has always been impeccable.

British Tourist - The beds in this hotel are mostly singles pushed together (unusual for a brit). The beds are very comfortable. The hotel feels luxurious, with slippers and robes etc. There is a ski shop inside the hotel which is extremely helpful, and good stuff too. Breakfast is average, exactly what you expect, it lacks a luxurious touch. The shower bath combo was complicated and soaked the floor (hence the 4*).

Nous sommes actuellement en séjour dans cet hôtel avec notre fille de 3 ans et l'expérience continue d'être exceptionnelle. La chambre est toujours impeccable, le personnel demeure aux petits soins, et le cocktail au bar reste un véritable délice. Une expérience inoubliable que nous recommandons vivement !
