Send everyone a questionnaire

This list is especially for the hotel in Les Deux Alpes, so that they know who is staying.

Full name:

Passport number:

Mobile phone number at holiday address:

E-mail:

Get up early and be the first to hit the slopes? Yes / No

Prefer to sleep long and connect later? Yes / No

This allows the hotel to organize the sleeping guests on a quiet corner, while the early birds stumble outside.

Food allergy Yes / No. What not?

Ski rental required Yes / No

Make a shortlist of hotels and costs

Everything depends on the budget that you can travel with. To avoid surprises during the winter group holiday, it is smart to book a hotel that offers half board.

With this, you are sure of a good breakfast and you do not have to think about dinner anymore. The danger is that if you as a group have to look for a restaurant every evening, there is sometimes no place for a large group of eaters.

A hotel with its own restaurant is then preferred; that provides peace of mind where the own tables form a cozy beacon to discuss the adventures of that day with a good glass of wine.

Hotels are mainly judged by location and guest reviews. Therefore look at both Google reviews and reviews on Tripadvisor for a first indication of the quality / price ratio.

Ask group prices at hotels in Les Deux Alpes

Send the specific wishes and the number of guests for the winter sports in Les Deux Alpes to the hotel and ask for a customized price. To save costs, it is smart to email or call the hotel directly. If sites are booked through separate booking sites, the hotel pays a commission to that party. By booking directly, the hotel will appreciate this and can do something extra for your group.

Make a list of who in the group wants to rent which skis or snowboards

Whoever travels by car and has his own ski equipment, naturally throws the shoes, boards and skis in the trunk. But perhaps a winter sports holiday with a group to Les Deux Alpes is a great time to try out new skis!

The technology of skis does not stand still; you make extra speed on a ski with carbon and titanium plate and if you want to go off-piste, you opt for an all-mountain freeride ski. Are you more a technical skier, then it is nice to rent an extra sharp carve ski. Most hotels have fixed agreements with a ski rental company for extra discount. And if you provide the desired type of skis and number of people, the ski rental company can reserve this for your group.
