Fleur des Neiges

Savoie


A grande dame of Morzine's hotel scene since 1951, family-run Fleur des Neiges has a winning formula: a cheerful welcome, big breakfasts and 31 natural-timber rooms made jolly with red-checked bedspreads, each with a mountain-facing balcony. There's a sauna, heated pool and a lounge where you can play board games in front of an open fire.

Situated five long blocks northwest of the tourist office, it's within 300m of the Super Morzine gondola.

Most bookings are weekly but you can reserve for three or four nights outside French school holidays. Prices drop by more than a third in low season.
