Résidence Lagrange Vacances Les Fermes de Samoëns - Samoens

Nice and spacious 3-storey chalet, was good fit for our group (8 people). 4 bedrooms, 2 toilets, livingroom & kitchen. Also nice balcony in 2nd floor and patio in first floor (was used a lot due to excellent Spring weather). Nice staff and common facilities (room with games, small pool and sauna). The chalets were not in perfect condition anymore despite being rather new...

Ski trip for 3 male friends. Apartment had a double room, kitchen / lounge with sofa bed and bunk beds in the hall. Basic kitchenette and shower room, plus balcony. The apartment is basic but is clean, comfortable and has everything you need for a ski weekend. For a week it might be too small, especially for a mixed group. No sign or mention of Wi-Fi. We checked in late and reception were fine and made arrangements for us. They were incredibly helpful, and also stored our bags so we could ski on Monday. All up recommended for those who don't want to spend £££ but want something that is still a good standard.

Really good value spacious, clean, and quiet apartment. Very helpful and friendly staff. Bus stop right outside the main entrance to the complex (bus takes you to the main gondola in Samoens in less than 5 mins), and a really good pizza takeaway nearby. This will be my first choice place to stay when we visit Samoens again (stayed in a higher rated place in Samoens before but prefer Les Fermes). Also, really good service from hotels.com. Thank you for a really enjoyable stay :-)

The rooms were very small and poorly equipped. The units were very small. 9" between the end of the bed and the wall at foot of bed. No wardrobes or drawers in 2 rooms. No oven. Co way to hang gear in drying closet.

CONS: Reception is only open 0800-1130 and 1630-2000 – this caught us out. Couldn't shut bedroom door, it hit to bed. We had room A25. It was over the lift in our block which was noisy Room is generally poorly sound insulated,this was the worst part of the stay. One toilet roll only, I checked with reception and this is all you get. Wipe... sparingly, or bring / buy extra. Only the news is in English on the tv so bring entertainment Have to put on your own bedsheets and remove at the end. No free wifi, it was €5 per day to buy. Several hairs were found on the duvet / bed before putting the sheets on. This was pretty rough. There is no bar or restaurant There is a bakery service available only. There is no hairdryer The phone didn't work PROS: Free 'Blue line' ski bus stops just outside reception Walk in to town is around 10 minutes. Large room, it was split level Coffee machine, need to buy coffee and filters although this was nice. There is a little oven / grill Shower is fine with consistent heat. Plenty of kitchen utensils including wine bottle opener. Large fridge. There is a mini market approx. 5-10 minutes walk away (called Sherpa). There is a communal area in reception (open during reception times) with a pool table and seating, also (I assume) free coffee facilities.
