Skier & Snowboarder-Submitted Reviews for Les Orres
Total (3.4)
A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
A lovely family resort with plenty of forests, local shops and a mini-market, and a very good pizzeria. 100km of slopes – it's not Tignes/Val d'Isère, but they're pleasant and more than enough for a few days. Always good snow cover and the slopes are groomed every night.
For some, there's an outdoor heated pool for relaxing after a day on the slopes.
What more could you ask for? Admittedly, not really suited to partygoers, which doesn't mean there's no fun to be had, but it's quite pleasant...

This resort has potential but is sabotaging itself:
The parking (and complicated parking) is an added absurdity given the already high price of the holiday.
There's nothing family-friendly about it; entire busloads of people from Eastern Europe come to party day and night. If you want to sleep, you'll need earplugs.
The police are lethargic; there are signs everywhere to regulate parking, but you can do whatever you want, and nobody does anything. The disabled parking space at the bottom of the residence remained occupied by an able-bodied person all week.
I lost a bag and sent an explanatory email to the police; the address on the town hall website is wrong! But anyway, nobody replied once I found the correct address.
The staff is only moderately friendly; it's definitely a tourist area...
Otherwise, €44 for a lift pass is reasonable; the slopes are decent; and apart from a few slow lifts (the ridge lifts), the lifts are efficient.

30 minute wait for the chairlift, dog poop, unfamily-friendly resort, no parking spaces, paid parking everywhere, partygoers all night, no local products. In short, a fairy tale.

Beautiful resort, but lacking shops and electric vehicle charging points. It needs to modernize.

We had a superb week in the sun in a magnificent landscape full of varied trails, we had a lot of fun!
Vincent Froissard
Overall, a pleasant resort that also offers a lot of après-ski activities.

We spent a week in Les Orres 1800 over Christmas. The welcome was excellent, and all the shops were nearby.
The resort is really nice, and everything is geared towards having a good time without having to do much.
The major downside was the lack of open slopes, apparently due to insufficient snow. As a result, we got a bit bored. We only had a 5-day lift pass and took a short trip to Italy on the 6th day!

The resort is generally made for beginners and people looking for peace and quiet, there is a lack of activity on the slopes for young people, but above all the fact that you pay for parking where you expect a minimum of services given the price and it is completely freezing, slippery, not even cleared of snow or anything.

A perfect family resort, with numerous beginner slopes at the base.
The resort is divided into two parts: one at 1650m and the other at around 1800m. Numerous chairlifts serve fairly spread-out areas, preventing overcrowding on the slopes and at the base of the resort.
For après-ski, there's a leisure center with a climbing wall and indoor skiing. Plenty of good restaurants.

Good resort overall
