Hotel du Glacier

The accommodation boasts impeccable cleanliness, well-stocked amenities, and convenient location near ski slopes and attractions. Guests appreciate the friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and delicious breakfast.

Just got back from a week in La Thuile staying at Hotel Du Glacier and would highly recommend this hotel: Location is great - the hotel is about 10 minutes walk from the village centre and the ski lifts and (where the supermarket is also located) and the walk is a nice one - down quiet roads/next to a mountain river. The hotel is great – the room was clean, spacious and warm and up-to-date, with comfy beds and a nice view. Staff are great – Susanna was always smiley, friendly and chatty and happy to book restaurants if needed. Breakfast was good – a mix of hot croissants, cold cuts, cereals etc and proper coffee though some eggs would have been nice. If I were going to La Thuile again I would certainly chose this hotel again.

I’m not a particularly prolific reviewer but having just come back from a last-minute ski trip to La Thuile I have to contribute and add to the numerous glowing reviews for this hotel and Susanna who made my stay extremely pleasant by virtue of being such a great host. Every morning I’d be greeted at breakfast with a large steaming jug of coffee and then indulge myself in some amazing croissants along with the rest of the breakfast buffet. When I had my list of places to eat for dinner, she’d ring up and get me a table booked. Her, her husband and team were always busy making sure everyone was looked after and it was nice to chat with her most evenings. You really feel like she’s happy to have you and takes an interest in everyone who checks in. The hotel itself is about a 10 minute talk from the centre of town where most of the restaurants are (although very close to Lo Tata where I had 2 amazing meals and great service during my week away) and 15 mins to the more modern complex near the gondola where the supermarket is. There’s a ski bus stop just outside and it’s a 10min walk to the side of where some of the runs end converge in front of the gondola, from which you can scoot down to the Bosco Express chairlift to get up the mountain. Sidenote: since the ski bus runs in a one-way loop it’s preferable (weather-permitting) to walk back to the hotel at the end of the day as it’s essentially at the end of the route, making it 5 mins to the gondola but an age to get back. La Thuile isn’t a party town by any means but the hotel’s location means it’s dead quiet at night making for a sound night’s sleep. I found the bed and pillows comfortable and the rooms are by default toasty but can easily be adjusted if you prefer it to be cooler. There were plenty of plug sockets and the bathroom had all the usual essentials, with the shower getting up to temperature very quickly. The ski boot room is out the front so each morning it was quick and easy to grab my stuff then catch the bus. If you’re coming to La Thuile to ski or do something in the summer then definitely take this place into consideration if you want something a little more personal then the giant hotel near the gondola station (which when I left was about to have 500 kids arrive for a school ski trip). Were I ever ski in La Thuile again I would 100% go back here!
