Sunélia les Logis d'Orres

"Outstanding place!!! 2 min walk with the ski boots to the station, truly a luxury, perfect rooms/apartment with equipped kitchen including dishwasher, breathtaking view, super friendly and helpful staff, opportunity to rent the ski at reduced price ."

"We stayed in a 2 bedroom with mezzanine apartment. It was very well equipped and served as a great base for our holiday. We were 4 adults, and the couple sleeping on the mezzanine used the small single bedroom as their dressing room. You are a 5 minutes walk through a car park and up a short hill to a tele-siege which takes you to a variety of pistes. You can also ski down to this lift, so it is very nearly ski to door.||The apartment itself had a great kitchen area, and a normal sized fridge. This was great for doing some self catering. The sound insulation of the apartments was great. We were hardly aware at all of our neighbours. Storage was good for ski accommodation. We also booked the hot tub 1 night (extra charge), it was great for relaxing after skiing and had good views. We didn't personally use the pool, but it is covered in the winter and some friends did use it and liked it. Taking something practical to walk to and from pool/hot tub is advisable since changing area is limited and putting on walking shoes can be a bit of a pain when you are wet...||You could get some food in the restaurant which is part of the complex. We just got take away pizza, and it was great. ||Couple of things to note - bedding and towels are not included, so if you don't want to take them with you make sure you order in advance. There is a smallish rental charge. Shopping for food is limited in Les Orres so it is advisable to shop in the town of Embrun on your way to the resort. Finally, you are expected to clean the apartment before leaving, and arrange for an inspection before you leave. You can, however, pay for the apartment to be cleaned for a charge.||I would definitely consider using the accommodation again if visiting Les Orres."

"We stayed a week at the Chalets "les Logis d'Orres". The small residence (a "gite" and some chalets) has potential but what they call "chalets" are more cabins to me (having stayed in real alpin chalets before). ||||Negative points :||||- The site has still construction (new building with appartments). Of couse constructions had stoped for winter but this is the first thing you see when you arrive...||||- Very difficult access with a car not equiped with special winter tires or chains and no place to park your car in front of your cabin entrance. I had to ask one of the Manager's to move its 4x4 who was parked in front of our door in order for us to empty our car on arrival... Also the cabin is "accessible" from the parking by a 30cm large snow alley (where are the stairs ?) not convenient at all when carrying your suitcase or your skies.||||- Unprofessional reception : first thing they asked before giving us the key or asking us if we made a safe trip was to pay the remainer of our reservation including all the options and even the meals without any invoice or details. As I refused then they printed a detailed invoice and I settled my bill without comments. Then a lady manager (owner ?) took us to our cabin , opened the door, but did not made us visit the place or gave us explanation...Not a very welcoming and professional attitude to guest I believe.||||- The "cabin" ; cleaning had not been made properly so the next day I did it myself because I don't like to start my holidays with the dust of the ex guests... We had rented bed sheets but they forgot to put them in the chalet. So we had to walk back to the reception and also ask questions about a few things they should have explained when entering the cabin.||||- Appliances and equipements looked cheap, dirty and old already (as the chalet is only 1 year old) ; beds were too soft and unconfortable. ||||Positive points :||||The residence is 50m from two ski lifts and ski rental stores.||||A new onsite restaurant opened this winter and is surprisingly good and serve tasteful big dishes inspired from alpin cuisine.||||An indoor small heated swimming pool is accessible (only) from 4 to 8pm but again the way to access it looked unconvenient at most so we forgot about it.||||A wooden sunken bath was installed on our terrace but unfortanutaly we were not allowed to use the wood burner so we had to "book" it 24h in advance so the manager could take care of it... By the way, the wooden bath of our neighbour cabin was just underneath our kitchen window !! ||||To end my review I would say that obviously the "chalets" have been constructed quickly with cheap materials and no attention to details. That's really a shame because this residence has potential and , if managed with a more oriented guest attitude, it could be really a great place to stay. As for myself I don't think I'll stay at Le Logis d'Orres in the future again."

"We had a wonderfull skiing holiday in this small and cosy residence. The staff are incredibly friendly, location perfect next to de lift and slopes.||The restaurant was perfect, we went the first night and came back 3 times that week!||Lovely sunny weather, the perfect ski conditions for us ;-)||We booked a chalet with private hot tub, how wonderfull!||We went swimming with our children n the pool and ice skating in the village centre.||Everybody had a great time"

"Great place to stay and to eat. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The apartments are almost new, they are very clean and cosy. I'd love to come back another time."
