Chalet Noella is one of three chalets in a small residence at the entrance to the Balcons area of Val Thorens. The building is shared exclusively with Chalets Mathilde and Chloe. The entrance is on the top floor and a shared staircase leads to the chalets, which are each individually run and hosted.

Excellent location

Val Thorens is connected to the Three Valleys, Europe's largest lift-linked area, so skiers and snowboarders of all abilities can experience excellent snow coverage and a variety of slopes. The Chalet Noella is in an exceptional location in Val Thorens, to get on the slopes, pop on your skis and head down the Plein Sud blue, which runs through the village, ski directly to the lifts connecting the Three Valleys or turn right to descend to Les Menuires.

The resort's centre is only a five-minute walk away, where a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants can be found. If you have a day off from skiing, the resort offers a variety of activities, including the new Le Board sport centre.

Chalet catering

Throughout your holiday, your chalet hosts will be available to help you with anything you might need. On six of the seven days of the week, the hosts prepare home-cooked comfort food, including a cooked breakfast, afternoon tea snacks, and a three-course dinner with wine, to fuel your ski days. In addition to preparing and serving your meals, the hosts will keep the chalet tidy for the duration of your stay. Since you are on holiday, your only responsibility is to get up and go skiing.

Unwind and relax

The chalet's interior is decorated in the traditional Alpine style and features comfortable furnishings throughout, including a living and dining area with an open layout. After a day spent exploring the Three Valleys, return to the chalet for afternoon tea to chill out with a cup of coffee and a sweet treat. Alternately, you can bask in the winter sun on the sun terrace, which features breath-taking views of the resort.

After a long day on the slopes, guests of the property are able to relax and rejuvenate in the wellness area, which includes a sauna and steam room.

Why is this is an Inghams' Choice property?

Easy ski access- Located a short walk away from the Plein Sud piste you have quick and easy access to the Three Valleys.

Close to resort- Chalet Noella is a short walk to the resort centre where you can find plenty of shops, restaurants and bars. There are also plenty of other non-skiing activities to keep you entertained including the state of the art Le Board sport centre. 

Chalet hosts -  Our chalet hosts are on hand to make your stay enjoyable, look forward to freshly prepared meals six days a week and relax knowing the tidying up is done for you - after all you are on holiday.

Val Thorens

  • Resort altitude of 2,300m
  • 600km of marked pistes 
  • 53 green, 137 blue, 106 red and 32 black runs

At an altitude of 2,300m, Val Thorens is the highest ski resort in Europe and as part of the huge Three Valleys area, it is undoubtedly one of the very best. The resort has been designed to offer doorstep skiing from practically wherever you stay and has a village feel around a compact centre - where car access is restricted. The height of Val Thorens means long hours of sunshine, an unrivalled snow record and great skiing for all grades. 

The Vallée des Belleville, including Val Thorens, has received the Flocon Vert label, demonstrating the resort's dedication to environmental preservation and highlighting its dedication to sustainable development. When you arrive in Val Thorens, the best way to get around is by foot, bus, or skis - many of the hotels are in great locations, so the pistes are easily accessible, no matter where you are. To keep the slopes skiable, all snow groomers use a more sustainable fuel and are equipped with a snow coverage gauge device to determine where artificial snow coverage is required. After a day on the slopes, many of the buildings are well insulated to keep the heat in and have smart heating controls to reduce the use of energy. Solar panels are also used to generate renewable electricity.
