Hotel le Cairn

We were looking for a budget-type stay for myself, my daughter, my son and his girlfriend as a trip for his 21st birthday. My daughter and my son's girlfriend had not skied before - my wife can't stand skiing so chose to stay at home! Le Cairn has a very relaxed, homely feel and the rooms are basic but well presented; most with mountain views. In a great location as only a short walk from the Diable chair lift, our ski hire shop (below The Shackelton bar) and the town centre bars/shops. The hotel bar serves a small, but delicious, selection of Belgian beers (along with wine, spirits etc). The usual continental breakfast did not disappoint either. There is a secure ski storage room and a terrace outside, perfect for getting kitted up into ski boots etc. There are steps up to the entrance, so not suitable if have pushchairs etc! I believe the chef can offer bespoke evening dinners for groups and I heard that the quality is excellent.

Enjoyed our stay here alot with my friends who booked this for us! The hotel was in the Centre of town and easy access to everything. Friendly reception staff too. I would stay here again without a doubt. On check out they let us keep our stuff there before our transfer. Thanks.

We stayed three nights at this hotel when skiing in Les Deux Alpes. Firstly, most hotels around the ski mountains in the region require a minimum of 7 night booking. This hotel gladly accepted our booking of 3 nights. It was perfectly located in the village of Les Deux Alpes, close to ski activities, shops, supermarkets and restaurants. If you have the room facing the mountains, the view was breathtaking. Coming from Grenoble by bus, you can get off at Maison Du Tourisme stop and the hotel is 5 minutes easy walk from there. The staff/ receptionists were always helpful and friendly, allowing us to store our luggage in the luggage room. We were a group of six, occupying three double bedrooms. The rooms were basic, but ensuite. However, cleanliness could be improved as the rooms were not serviced everyday. There were no kettles or tea/ coffee making facilities, but you can buy your water from nearby supermarkets. In some rooms, the heaters however were too strong at night and the room could be too warm to sleep. The buffet breakfast was included in our rate and it was actually surprisingly nice. Came with limited selection of hot foods (scramble eggs), yogurts, breads, fruits and nice juices, it was enough to fill our stomach before setting off to ski. This hotel is only two star rated, but considering how expensive accommodation in Les Deux Alpes during skiing season, it was not cheap either.
