I can totally recommend Le Labrador. Central location, relatively convenient for lifts and facilities. We stayed in a family room which was modest but very comfortable. The staff are welcoming, obliging, professional and went out of their way to help and advise. My I would happily, indeed look forward, to a further stay.
This was a really pleasant 3 night stay in this friendly, family-feel hotel. We were two chaps on a ski weekend sharing a twin room on the 3rd floor with a nice view over the village and to the mountains beyond. We didn't have dinner, though the restaurant looked nice, but breakfast was very adequate though nothing special. Our only complaint? The room was so HOT! We tried turning off the vast radiator but even that did not seem to bring the temperature down too much.
We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment as a family of 4. It was great for us. Great location and awesome views. A short walk to town down hill. About a 10 minute walk to the ski lifts. The town is really just 2 parallel streets and offered a lot more than I expected. Lots of restaurants, a small theater, a bowling alley and a very close grocery store. The apartment had everything that you would need, although took a little while to find everything (plates were in a drawer under the tv). Blackout electric shutters were a great feature. The only issue at night is that we could hear the people above us stomping around with loud music, but I wouldn't say that's the hotel's fault. Would have been nice to get a quick orientation on the place and some info like how to call the hotel from the apartment (since you have to let them know each night if you will have the buffet breakfast in the morning), the breakfast hours, the code to get into the spa, how to get into town etc. Buffet breakfast at the hotel was good with good coffee, eggs very undercooked though. Dinner at the hotel was very good, but expensive. Rooms could have been cleaner, the bathroom shower had some mold around the door and grouting. I actually couldn't tell if the staff couldn't speak English very well or if they just didn't want to help. An English written sheet with useful information would be very helpful to have on arrival. Les Gets, Morzine and Avoriaz are very close to each other. Just FYI, Apparently Avoriaz is more snowboarder friendly but higher altitude and another windy 30 minute drive from Les Gets. I would say Les Gets is about 10% Snowboarders. Great snow, great trails, great town and pretty easy to get to with low altitude.
We are just leaving after a wonderful family week in Les Gets staying at the Le Labrador. We are a family of five, three children aged 7, 10 and 14. The hotel is very convenient for the town and the chair lifts, plus on the free bus route up the the lake. Our rooms were opposite one another, and of a typically comfortable ski style hotel, ours with a view over the pool and mountains. All very clean with decent mattresses. The entire hotel is 'ski' style.
Everything is as you expect from the web site, fun outside pool and grounds including a tennis court. The indoor pool was a hit on the rainy afternoon or two.
The owners are very present around the hotel and extremely welcoming and friendly, with great staff, who we thought were exceptionally professional and efficient, especially around meal times. Breakfast was a buffet affair and perfectly fine, while dinner was a lovely experience either outside (if warm) or inside (if raining . . . there was a rain theme over the last three days). Smallish, but tasty menu all very well cooked, some on the open fire in the restaurant. Again very accommodating for our slightly fussy children!
We arrived with lots of bikes, which the owners stored in the drying room for us and could not have been more helpful.
All in all, a lovely family run hotel which helped make a great alpine holiday and summer return to Les Gets.
Love this hotel. Its beautiful outside and inside. The food is to die for and the people are amazing. Our room was beautiful and spotlessly clean. The hotel as an indoor swimming pool which is lovely and warm. 3 minutes walk from the city center. We will def go back.
Thank you for such a lovely 2 nights. Karine, Chris and our 4 years old Joley.
