Sowell Residences Crêt Voland

I have never seen an apartment that was so dirty and worn down as this one. And we payed a lot of money for this. Everything is dirty and broken down. This is advertised as a for star apartment, but even 1 star would be too much. This is what you get - broken down tabel - dirty bedding - no duvet covers - worn down couch - broken down closets - apartment hasn’t been cleaned in ages - mold in the bathroom - mini dishwasher, while it’s a 6 person apartment - mini fridge instead of a normal one And the list goes on!

It was ok but expensive for what we got.We were told they were no towels as the hotel was full! There’s no room cleaning. Make your beds on arrive. Strip them and fully clean the room when you leave. And the lady in rebel ski hire was vile we had 2 children first pair of boots were to small she wasn’t happy about changing them probably the wrong time of the month not the experience would expect in a hire shop. Nice little supermarket on site and friendly lady.

This is the worst hotel I’ve ever had the unfortunate pleasure to stay at. We arrived and the reception was closed, We had to collect the bedding from reception and take to our studio room. The room had just 1 sofa bed which was terrible. The bathroom was falling apart and rotten. The boot room was a disgusting, difficult to get to paint falling from the ceiling, small. The over powering smell of dog faeces by the entrance to the apartment was truly disgusting and having to dodge it daily was appalling, paving slabs broken and everything was rundown and dirty. The patio door to the balcony was broken and wouldn’t lock. We also had to clean the rooms at 2 am before we left and return the bedding. I don’t think places like this existed anymore

Read the reviews before we went and have to say we were a little worried. Upon arrival staff were very friendly and helpful and throughout our stay. The entrance to our building was a little scruffy but with foot traffic all with ski boots on it was to be expected. We had a studio flat at the end of the corridor so lovely and quiet,beautiful views(obviously). Spotlessly clean well equipped kitchen,fair sized wardrobe with ironing board mop and bucket,broom. Bathroom good size with a bath and shower. Large double sofa bed which I have to say was actually very comfortable and did look new. Welcome essential pack with a scourer& cloth one dishwasher tablet,one bin liner and one sachet of cleaning fluid for washing floors which we used at the end of the stay.I would say do your own clean at the end of the stay so as not to have a cleaning bill. Shops on the ground floor of the apartments good selection,and a funicular to the main shops and restaurants in the centre at the back of apartments. The reason we chose here was the ski In ski out which was good We have stayed in various accommodation in the alps over the years and would say we would return.Very functional and no frills. I would say great location good value for money

The hotel was poorly maintained, doors falling off or not locking. The room was extremely small. The bed was very uncomfy. Only one set of towels and bedding for the week. Spoke to the staff about the issues with the room and they did absolutely nothing about this.

J'ai eu la chance de m'éclipser de la canicule parisienne pour retrouver la fraîcheur des Menuires. Bain de nature au cœur des montagnes, la résidence est idéalement placée pour des départs de randonnée et le personnel est au petit soin. Je reviendrai !
