What's included in your Mark Warner holiday
Tucked right on the edge of the piste with dazzling views of the mountains beyond, the Chalet hotel Tarentaise is located in the heart of the Three Valleys - Méribel Mottaret, offering you some of the very best skiing and boarding available in a truly stunning setting. Its central location gives you easy access to the Three Valley network of over 600km of pistes with the added advantage of ski-in ski-out.
At Chalet hotel Tarentaise you will find all home from home comforts, from the large lounge with central log fire and bar area to the dining room looking out to the mountains. The spacious bedrooms are all en-suite, have flat screen TV showing English channels and most have balconies. Choose from a twin, double or inter-connecting room, most of which can take an extra bed.
You’re spoiled for choice when you breakfast in the dining room - indulge yourself in a full English breakfast, a bowl of fuel-packed porridge, an omelette specially cooked to order or help yourself from a mouth-watering range of fruit, pastries and yoghurts. And of course, the holiday wouldn’t be complete without our famous afternoon tea with its selection of homemade cakes, bread and soup and a choice of starters, main course and dessert in the evening, pleasantly accompanied by complimentary wine.
And if you’re feeling in need of some pampering, all you need to do is pop into our beauty salon and sauna on the lower ground floor.
Mottaret has a good choice of bars and restaurants, including Le Rastro, which always has a good buzz. If you fancy an evening in Méribel, it's easily reached by the free resort bus service from the Tarentaise.
Children will love the hotel’s brightly decorated crèche which opens straight out onto the snow, and you’ll have a hard time dragging them away from their club at the end of each day. In the evening, we run a supervised film showing in the creche, where our nannies will look after the children whilst you relax over dinner knowing they’re in good hands.

Skiing can sometimes seem like an elite club! What with the technical jargon, specialist equipment and ski resorts that sound like they should be in the Chronicles of Narnia, it is slightly daunting for those of us who want to learn. We warmly welcome beginner skiers and our aim is to help you on your way to loving the sport as much as we do.
Lessons are not just for beginners though, if you are looking to improve your technique or build up confidence, booking lessons on your ski holiday will be the best way.
