When we booked this trip we were aware of other comments travellers had made about the state of the place, but as it was last minute and took the chance. Upon arrival it became apparent quite quickly that most of the negative comments were true. This place is marketed as the cheapest place to stay in Courchevel and given that... more

Yes, this is a bog standard, no frills Chalet - BUT the friendly staff and amazing food made up for this in abundance! This was my first skiing holiday and I had a great time, met loads of people and learnt tonnes - the majority of that was due to the staff at the Catina. They were always frendly, helpful,... more

OK - where do you start? Fabulous location, right in the centre of town, minutes from the slopes. We knew from previous reviews that this hotel is run down and rather shabby and it certainly is. Revolting carpets in the corridors and as one guest commented, you need to wipe your feet when you leave the hotel. The rooms we... more

First impressions of the hotel were not favourable, but this is because last year our group stayed in a 5 star chalet. Also we had travelled overnight so were tired and grumpy. Chalet staff did their best to get the rooms ready for us asap (previous guests had just checked out and it was 6:30am) so those of us who... more

Where do I begin, this hotel is the worst place I have ever stayed, the hotel had no hot water for 1 week, we lasted 1 night the poor reps had hell albeit no fault of there’s, the hotel is beyond poor its like a set of stigg of the dump!! The nice problem with Chourchevel 1850 it will fill... more

Just returned from one of the best ski trips over the last 20 years!!! Make no mistake, Catina is a budget hotel ideally suited to groups, young (at heart at least), newcomers and serious skiers alike. It probably isn't the ideal base for families with young children. Most important are Catinas staff. They are helpful and pleasant at all times... more

When coding this holiday above average I have to qualify this as we have been there twice and booked last minute and got a really good deal. If we'd booked full price I may have been miffed! The location is absolutely fabulous, slap bang in the middle of town and a few minutes to the main lift. The staff have... more

This hotel was basic ane the rooms were small but s a large group we decided that on a ski holiday we never intended to spend much time in our rooms anyway. Set within this gorgeous ski resort this is the best option for for the budget minded traveller wanting a great ski holiday in a expensive resort who doesn't... more

Okay so I was worried about staying in the Catina, but I would like to reassure people that it is really ok! The location is great, right in the centre of Courchevel. The rooms are basic but very clean and warm. The staff are very friendly and helpful and work exceptionally hard to deliver a great service. The menu is... more
