Hotels in Les Gets

Les Gets sits just over the hill from Morzine in the Portes du Soleil ski area, and it trades on being the gentler, more family-friendly alternative to its bigger, brasher neighbours. The village itself is genuinely pretty, all dark timber chalets and a proper Savoyard centre, which makes it popular with families and intermediate skiers rather than the après-ski crowds who head elsewhere.

Its lower altitude is the honest catch: snow cover at village level can be unreliable in a mild winter, so late-season bookings carry some risk even with the Portes du Soleil's huge lift network on your doorstep. In summer it switches to mountain biking, with its own bike park feeding into the wider Portes du Soleil trails. Stay as close to the centre as you can manage, since the village is compact and walkable, and a central base keeps you near both the lifts and the restaurants without needing a car.
