Brides-les-Bains

Brides-les-Bains is located near to Meribel and is part of the larger Three Valleys ski area.

Long known as a popular spa town rather than as a ski destination, the town now houses a number of hotels that provide a more cost-effective option than some of the other resorts in the area.

You can also expect things to be a bit more relaxed and a touch quieter than elsewhere, although there are a few bars and restaurants to explore on an evening as well as a casino.

The history of the resort as a spa town is reflected in the fact that there are a number of spas still in place where you can book a treatment to soothe your aching muscles.

If you want a base with a traditional feel that is away from the crowds, then this is a great choice.

Apres-Ski in Brides-les-Bains
