2nd stay not quite as wonderful as our 1st
We stayed at Le Fitz Roy last year and enjoyed our stay so much we decided to stay again for this year's Val Thorens ski trip. This hotel is in the perfect ski-in-ski-out location at the bottom of the plain sud piste and also in the middle of town - ideal for bars, restaurants and shopping.
On arrival we were allocated an upgraded room - which was very welcome and appreciated. Our room had a beautiful view of the mountains, a large bathroom with bath (but no shower) was well presented and very clean.
During our stay there were a few negatives that would likely encourage us to stay elsewhere next year. The first seems a little strange for a hotel of this standard. The included breakfast, whilst very good, now charges an additional fee if you wish to have fried/poached/freshly boiled eggs or an omelette. This wasn't the case last year. Besides a lack of eggs it's sometimes difficult to get coffee - the attentiveness of the staff can be a little hit or miss. A self service machine might help.
The second negative is that the pool in the spa is so much colder than it was last year that it wasn't at all enjoyable. On our previous trip we would spend an hour or so at the end of the day in the spa - this trip we avoided it and soaked in our bathroom instead. We mentioned the pool was cold to the spa assistant who told us to inform reception... that didn't really feel like our job.
