Why It Matters
One of the rare ski hotels that swapped Alpine kitsch for genuine contemporary personality. Tablet Hotels and Michelin Guide-listed. Named after the Ormelune mountain peak on the France-Italy border. The only ski hotel of its kind in Val d'Isère that genuinely commits to colour and humour as design principles rather than as an afterthought.
The Ormelune is a 4-star family-run boutique ski hotel sitting right in the original village of Val d'Isère at 1,850m, in the heart of the Espace Killy ski area. It used to be a perfectly ordinary mountain hotel — until it caught the renovation bug. The result is an anti-alpine-kitsch statement: 56 rooms spread across five floors, decorated with bold tangy colours, varnished concrete bathrooms, and a sense of humour that starts at the front door (fake grass carpet, cow statues) and doesn't let up. The French Ski School is literally across the street. The slopes are a short walk away.
Where You'll Stay
10 room types available
Large Mezzanine Room
From EUR650 / nightThe biggest non-suite room at 48m², sleeping four, with a south-facing balcony and mountain/ski slope views. Two separate sleeping areas across the mezzanine layout, and two bathrooms — one with a tub, one with a shower.
Twin main + Twin mezzanine · 48 sqmLarge Room
From EUR370 / nightThe value pick according to third-party reviewers. 29m², south-facing with a balcony overlooking the ski slopes — you wake up to the Face de Bellevarde. Bathtub, two beds, and can fit a child's folding bed on request.

Small Room
From EUR275 / nightThe entry point. At 19m², it's genuinely small — village view, north-facing, shower (no bathtub), all the basics. Fine for one night or for budget-conscious guests who'll spend most of their time on the mountain.

XL Room
From EUR475 / night34m², north-west facing with village views, one large bed (not twin), and a separate living room area. The go-to choice for couples who want a proper double rather than two twins pushed together.
