Résidence La Combe d'Or

"The compex seems to have new and old part. I am leaving the review for the old part that doesn't match any of the pictures. If it was 5 times cheaper, it might've been 3 star at the best. You have to clean the apartment or they keep the deposit, and they don't provide you any cleaning products or supplies. There was a broken glass left inside the kitchen. The pedestrian path is never cleaned and is quite dangerous. They didn't provide soap. Sheets were dirty. Spiders and unknown insects are present inside. Nothing is in English. The apartment smells of cigarettes. The beds were not made. It's DIY. Air vents are dirty and not working. Washroom and toilet are on separate floors. There is no sink/faucet in room with toilet bowl. There is no toilet bowl in the washroom where the sink/faucet and shower are located. Wash room is a total of 1.5 square meters in size. They provided the cheapest see-through toilet paper. Coffee maker/water heater doesn't work. The hairdryer is melted inside - a fire hazard waiting to happen. Water pressure is weak. Water seems to always be cold between 16h and 23h. Radiators/heaters are from the 1990 era and some are falling apart. One doesn't work at all. You share half a house with another apartment. It is far from sound-proof, I would say that walls are made out of cardboard. You can hear almost everything. The door to the terrace in one room is not sealed properly so cold air easily gets inside even if the door is "closed". WiFi is non-existent, barely present in one room, other rooms have no signal. It doesn't work most of the time. Takes 10 minutes to connect to it. When it works, it boasts the speed of: - Download 0.2 Mbps (most of the time) to 2Mbps - Upload 0.5 Mbps - Ping 150 - 300ms This is the speed you'd expect in 2000-2005, not in 2024. Two single beds are 160-170 cm long which is not size for adults"

"We had glorious sunshine and skiing weather when we went to Les Orres 1800. We stayed in one of the self catering two bedroom chalets, ski in ski out. Though the chalet was cleaned in the morning, it was not professionally done. We had to clean and sanitise critical areas. Management should do spot inspections to ensure that it is being done properly. The sofa in the lounge was absolutely filthy with marks and smelt of damp. There wasn't enough cleaning materials in the chalet as well, which is not surprising, given the state of it when we checked in. The balcony door in our bedroom had a great big crack and a cot that was not even put away before our arrival occupied what little space we had left. The stairs were filthy...all they needed to do was to give it a good mop to get rid of the dark marks on it but it was not done. They need to sort out their housekeeping standards, if there are any. Very basic furniture, decor etc...for the price we paid for it. A lot of room for improvement. I would recommend the skiing but not the accommodation. Service was not very good either. The pool and sauna was okay in the main Combe d'or building."

"Pro: Cheaper than the hotels in Austria, or Switzerland. The location was awesome, you can reach the ski slopes in 3 minutes. Cons: The room was dirty, we had to clean it before we moved in. The wardrobe was broken. The couch in the main room was disgusting. (I attached the photos.) The sauna was not as hot as a sauna supposed to be and cannot heated up more because it is controlled by the owners. The hammam was closed. The pool was ok, but a little bit cold. You recieve a list of the furnitures and tools in french) which you should check precisely."

"A standard France place. Nothing special. It has a good pool and sauna. The rooms are standard. Good value. I wouldn call it a 4 star place. Service was bad. We had to make our beds when we came and carry the sheets on our departure. The internet wasn't working, and the receptionists were hard to find. Overall i would recommend the place just for the pool bonus."

"We had a great time here! We stayed at a 4 person bedroom but i thought it was kind of small. Besides that there were no issues. Everything we needed was there and worked properly. The view is great and during the winter season you have an acces to the slopes in your backyard. The hammam and sauna were very enjoyable but also kind of small. But perfect for relaxing after a long intensive day! And to finish everything off. A quick dive in the pool!"
