Situated at the base of the Three Valleys, the quiet spa town of Brides-les-Bains offers affordable accommodation and easy access to the Three Valleys. Known for its superb spa, it’s a popular choice for those seeking some blissful rest and relaxation.
One of the larger ski resorts in France, Bride-les-Bains offers direct access to 600km of pristine pistes via the Olympe gondola. Hop on the gondola to Méribel Centre, the ski hub, which boast a world class lift system that links you to every area of the Three Valleys.
With a great selection of shops, cafés, and restaurants, the pretty town has everything you need for a fantastic holiday. Bride-les-Bains’ main draw, however is its world class spa. Set amid lush Alpine surrounds, Le Grand Spa Thermal offers the ultimate in luxury and indulgence. Take advantage of the wide range of treatments on offer, rejuvenate in the Turkish baths, saunas and steam rooms, or take a dip in the outdoor jacuzzi. Nightlife in Bride-les-Bains is more reserved than its neighbouring resorts, and you’ll find a small selection of bars and pubs, offering a casual and informal ambience. A huge draw for guests to the town is the casino, where you can try your hand at some Texas Hold’em, play a round of roulette or try your luck at some Blackjack!

Malcolm Stocks
Hello, I'm Malcolm. This winter will be my 6th winter season in the French Alps for Topflight. I originally hail from the west coast of Scotland, but France has become my home for the winters. I love anything and everything outdoorsy, but especially cycling and skiing! There's nothing quite like sharing a fondue and a few drinks after a bluebird powder day! Myself and the team are looking forward to welcoming you to the French Alps this winter. We are here to ensure you have a fantastic time both on and off the slopes. Whether you are looking for some local info on the best spots for a hot chocolate, fondue, or a well earned beer or vin chaud at the end of the day. We'll be on hand to deal with any queries or questions you may have during your stay.
