Just got back from short stay visit. This is a very affordable, well run and well located "budget hotel". The service was friendly and efficient and Beth, who runs/owns the place, was very helpful with local restaurant tips and ski hire etc. The hotel is a genuine 5 min walk from the main square in Megeve and we had no... more

We've just returned from a long weekend skiing having stayed at Le Gai Soleil hotel, booked on the basis of the comments I'd read on Tripadvisor. Everything everybody had written was fully justified and Beth and all her staff are an abosulute delight. The hotel is in a quiet but convenient location, the rooms are small and simply decorated, but... more

The Gai Soleil is a real find in Megeve. We have stayed twice on family ski holidays, and will be going there twice more this ski season. The hotel is central and comfortable, and Beth is very friendly. Beth could not have been more helpful when one of my children fell ill, even when I phoned her late at night... more

Arriving in the pouring rain having been picked up from Geneva Airport by transport arranged by the Hotel did not diminish the warmth of the welcome from the hotel staff. Having been shown to our beautifully appointed room overlooking the Jaillet side of Megève, aperitifs preceded the first of the 'Cord en Bleu' meals that were a feature of the... more

We booked last minute and were warned by Beth that the attic room was small, and it was, but this did not spoil our stay and the ensuite shower room was fine and we had a view of the snowy mountains. All the staff were extremely hospitable and charming and we enjoyed the bar facilities for our early evening drinks.... more

A lovely friendly hotel close to both town centre and lifts. Great for a short break or holiday, very reasonably priced. Highly recommended. more

We booked The Gai Soleil in Megeve on the basis of previous TripAdvisor reviews and we were not disappointed. We phoned just 3 days before arrival looking for late availability for 2 nights. Beth was more than helpful and told us there was 1 room left. The rate quoted was discounted on the listed tariff and we booked for Half... more

We arrived back from beautiful Megeve last night, we had booked a week of rest and relaxation didnt ski this time, and on arrival at the hotel we were met by a very smiley Beth who owns Gai Soleil. From the time we set foot inside the hotel nothing was to much trouble and we were made to feel completely... more

Our second visit of almost one week - and even better than the first. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts Beth and Roger, or their lovely staff, Cecille and Muriel (who keeps the well furnished rooms spotless, in spite of our dreadful untidiness). The chef, Allain, is "the best". The hotel only boasts 2 stars - but the... more
