St Martin de Belleville — Where to stay

St Martin is not the biggest of resorts but it benefits from a diverse selection of accommodation providers. Whilst the neighbouring resorts of Val Thorens and Les Menuires are functional, and at time bleak, St Martin has a traditional village feel to it. There are several catered chalet operators here now and these can be a cost-effective and hassle-free form of accommodation . Green Mountain Chalets operate a stunning barn conversion and you will get a true taste of the Alps as you eat under the vaulted ceiling in the dining room. They also offer several services that will be attractive to families, such as baby monitors, minibus shuttles and early dinners.
 
If you are looking for the flexibility and privacy of self-catering there are plenty of beautiful chalets and apartments in the area. Try Peak Retreats for a nice selection of upmarket chalets (some with indoor pools) and for more modest budgets you should find something suitable on the 16 page list of private rentals provided by the tourist office!
 
There are plenty of hotels to choose from here as well and if you can afford to dine in luxury why not stay in La Bouitte with its Michelin Star restaurant. It is in the neighbouring hamlet of St Marcel but is linked by a regular shuttle bus. The Alp Hotel is a modest 3 star at the foot of the slopes whilst the Hotel St Martin has been renovated to a high standard and all rooms are individually decorated in true alpine style.
