During my recent stay at Daria-l Nor hotel for 8 nights in late January/February for skiing, I was impressed by the spacious standard room which included a hallway/boot room, toilet, bathroom, and a bedroom with a generously-sized walk-in wardrobe.
The convenience of having a ski shop within the hotel made storing and retrieving ski equipment hassle-free, thanks to the helpful and friendly staff. The gondola located just 5 meters outside the ski shop provided easy access to the slopes, allowing for quick trips back to the hotel for lunch.
The hotel bar with a cozy atmosphere and natural fire was a perfect place to unwind in the evenings, although the drinks were a bit pricey. However, the skilled bar staff made up for it with their fantastic cocktail-making skills.
The restaurant and bar offered generous portion sizes, with items like the club sandwich and fondue being large enough to share between two people. The breakfast spread was enjoyable, particularly the white sourdough baguette and chocolate madeleines that were not to be missed.
While the spa area was adequate for relaxation after a day of skiing, it was the overall experience at Daria-l Nor that truly made my time in Alpe D'Huez memorable. The attentive breakfast staff, convenient ski facilities, and comfortable accommodations all contributed to a fantastic stay, and I am already considering a return visit next year.
