As the 3 Valleys’ middle sister, Meribel is blessed not only with a superb location but with good looks as well. Built almost entirely in chalet style using traditional local stone and wood, it exudes an authentic, albeit lively, village charm that many other resorts lack. The bustling village centre boasts an excellent choice of shops and friendly restaurants and bars, including the popular English-run “Dick’s Tea Bar” and “Le Pub”. Another plus is the large sports centre with an indoor ice rink, heated swimming pool, bowling alley and various other facilities. For easy access to other parts of Meribel there is a regular free bus service, used in conjunction with your ski pass.
