Hotel information
Located in Meribel, in the mesmersing Tranetaise Valley of the French Alps, Hotel Le Kaila offers an extremely scenic – and cosy – ski experience. Take to the 3 Valleys slopes in no time with the complimentary ski-in / ski-out service, relax at Nuxe spa, or savour Michelin-star delights at L’Ekrin restaurant.
Fitting the bill of a traditional ski retreat, the hotel is an iconic chocolate box chalet poking out from a blanket of snow. Inside, the rooms and suites are just as inviting, oozing a romantic, cosy feel, with wooden interiors and soft, lavish furnishings. Communal spaces throughout the hotel feel just as intimate, with an understated lounge bar, warmed by a fireplace, and two snug restaurants serving France’s finest cuisine. In true Alpine tradition, there are also smoking rooms set with cigar humidors, and a Hookah bar.
To interest little guests, there’s a Kids’ Club, stocked with enough Lego to keep them thoroughly entertained, and a teens’ area where older children can make friends. You can request for childcare services if you’d like some time alone, just the two of you, to relax at the spa, dive into the swimming pool, or upgrade your look at the hair salon.
The ski valet service ensures a smooth sailing ski experience, as does the ski-in / ski-out service, whisking you up into the mountains via a private lift. You can buy the latest ski gear at the L’Eskale Ski Shop or rent any equipment you need to help you excel on the slopes.
