Le Grand Aigle Hôtel & Spa

Perfect location, nice little town, love to come again

4 day ski trip with a friend. Hotel was ski-in/ski-out, high quality and very friendly. Rooms were all new, staff attentive and ski lockers great. Local area was a little quiet (as is a lot of Serre Chevalier) but the bar in the hotel was a good replacement.

Poor wifi connectivity, no airconditioning, many TV channels were scrambled, there was no restaurant, poor view from our almost ground floor balcony. When we did make these matters known to reception staff they were very helpful but unable to change our room because the hotel was fully booked. I would say that Expedia should take the responsibility for not accurately posting the information about this hotel. They offered a massive discount, presumably knowing that the hotel was under refurbishment and facilities would be less than normal. We paid extra for a deluxe room but it was the same as a standard room other than the fact it had a special bathtub.

The staff are very nice and helpful. It was our first time to briancon, not having a car with us. The staff helped us a lot looking for the place we can go, and even offered to drive us to the place we wanted to go. Breakfast is nice Rooms are v pretty and quiet. They don't have air conditioning in he room, but a fan to keep the room cool. temperature in briancon was not very hot, I found it bearable.

Great location, relaxed surroundings abd very helpful staff

AMAZING in every aspect

The room was so small, bathroom too. My head kept hitting the shower glass door when I was in the bathroom. However, the room was clean and modern. The town is beautiful. Breakfast was awesome, a lot of high quality choices. The hotel made a mistake charging my credit card but the staff at the reception did their best to address the issue, very nice people specifically, the young lady named Leopoldine who I dealt with directly. She was great, probably the nicest person I dealt with as a customer during my trip to France.

Good stay in a very good hotelGood restaurant inside hotel, very convenient when cold outside, even if quality of food is not as good as it used to be last year and the year before.Better price when you book through Hotels.comNo need to book half-board : it is cheaper or equal to pay at the restaurant every evening.

First impression of hotel is not good when we are told there are no elevators and we are on the 2nd floor so had to lug our cases up 2 flights of stairs. The lovely receptionist offered to carry our bags but there is no way my Husband would ask a 19 year old girl to be carrying our bags for us...shameful they expect receptionists to carry bags! The room was hot and no a/c so had to open all the windows but was right next to busy road so heard street noise which I had hoped would settle down because it was mostly young children but after dark it changed to revellers that carried on till 4am. Not sure what was worse boiling hot room or open windows to noise? There is no restaurant in the summer which we knew when we booked but wasn't going to worry until we arrived but it really is very inconvenient especially when there are few restaurants in town and they require reservations but don't open till 7:30 and we are from Canada so can't phone to make reservations. Luckily front desk kindly did this for us...front desk was very helpful and pleasant btw. There is a fridge in the room but dont bother using it because it is barely lukewarm so all my food spoiled. The room is very nice and modern and so is the bathroom and shower. There isn't much to do in the town besides outdoor recreation but I did walk to the nearby village which was quite charming. The parking is right outside the hotel which was very convenient...especially after lugging your bags up and down 2 flights of stairs!

Wonderful Hotel and hotel staff - service is top-notch. Location is easy to find and great proximity to hiking and skiing. Unfortunately the hotel is too close to the Club Med which is an on-going-outdoor-karaoke-all-hours-party that kept us awake nightly until 1AM.The Spa at the Hotel is also far too understaffed to provide the same level of service as provided at the Hotel. I dont advise the Spa for services unless they can confirm that they are fully staffed otherwise the sauna and hot tub are not maintained or regularly cleaned as the staff is primarily dedicated to massage and facial services.

Amazing boutique hotel in a quaint ski village in the alps. Would highly recommend to use as a base within the French Alps. The rooms are a bit small but overall everything was exceptional and very relaxing.

Lovely spot, excellent hotel, unable to fault, would stay again; now I am writing to make the review long enough to be accepted.
