Enjoyable holiday
Just spent a week here. Ultimately you can't beat the Club Med package - they are just so good at it. This is our 5th ski holiday with them. Very modern hotel, well - equipped, in an excellent location. It is large - 1000 guests or so, so it does get busy. Very clean, and spacious. Food was good - not the best we've had at Club Med but more than acceptable. The ESF as ever were superb. I'd come again.

Great location, amazing views and lovely experience, but the thing that makes this such a good place to stay are the staff. All of the people are incredibly helpful and generous with their time and help. Went with family, and the entertainment and resources for the children had such a high standard every night with something for everyone to enjoy. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a great holiday away

Written by: Nicq W - - January 16, 2025Great stay
we were in Samoens for a short stay from December 26 to 29, everything was perfect, the bar team was superb, except that we were greeted by Jason, we do not understand how a person like him can be assistant to the village chief, not smiling, not welcoming and especially that we asked questions about the complex and he became extremely unpleasant. This person does not respect the values of Club Med. Fortunately the reception team was very available for questions that we cannot ask Jason.
Rating: 5 / 5
Written by: André D - Vienna, Austria - January 15, 2025Extremely disappointing
Where to begin? We previously stayed here in 2019 and had a wonderful holiday so had high hopes for our return visit. Sadly we could not have been more disappointed. The hotel has gone downhill in every respect and our experience this time was terrible. For context, we were a family of 4 with two teenagers (17 and 14). Restaurant/Food: The buffet restaurant was totally shambolic. Finding a table was almost impossible. Large numbers of tables had reserved signs for chalet guests (who often didn’t show) or tables were left dirty and uncleared. We frequently had to ask for cutlery, glasses and sort out our own drinks. Experiencing this chaos 3 times a day meant we dreaded meal-times. Often we were sat right next to staff also having their meal which felt really weird given we had not received any restaurant service whatsoever. The food was bland and repetitive and often inedible or cold (eg. burnt steak haches, lumpy mashed potatoes, watery bolognese, undercooked eggs, dried out pork, gristly steak). A promised birthday cake for my husband (that I’d emailed and arranged with the hotel) never materialised. For New Year's Eve, we were told if we pre-ordered wine/champagne (charged at full menu price) then we would have a reserved table. On arrival, none of the staff could find our table and they suggested other guests had removed the sign and had sat down (which I'm sure wasn't the case). It was clear from the large numbers of other irate guests waiting for tables that the reservation system had totally failed. It just felt like a greedy money making experience. Gourmet Restaurant: We were told on our first day it was fully booked for the entire week. How? Eventually we were offered a table for our penultimate night. Our experience was absolutely shocking. Way worse than the buffet restaurant, something we didn’t think was possible! The majority of the dishes on the small menu were unavailable. Two of us had to skip starters. We had to request basic cutlery. The fondue for 4 would barely have fed 2 people (see photos). Only my children were offered a dessert and then eventually were told their dessert was ‘unavailable’. The restaurant looked tacky with cheap tables, no tablecloths, paper napkins and battered clipboard menus. The very opposite of gourmet. Bar/Entertainment: This had been a highlight of our previous stay. But the shows were utterly bizarre and inappropriate. On NYE, we inexplicably had a ‘Viking’ show complete with a burning village backdrop. Another evening, we had giant lit up robots with wings (you had to be there) and on our final night, a show where the Club Med staff lip-synced (very badly) to songs. After the shows finished at 9.45/10pm, we had the same medley of Club Med songs EVERY single night followed by dance techno which was so deafening that the huge bar totally emptied and families just took themselves off to the lobby area with their drinks/card games. Most of the people left dancing in the bar (and having a great time) were young staff members. You had to wonder who the hotel was actually for? I last saw the 'nominal' hotel manager (who greeted us on arrival) up on the stage leading the dance techno rave for the staff. It felt extremely unprofessional and underlined how oblivious the hotel was to the guests' needs. Facilities: The pool was freezing and my hardy children didn’t want to go in it. The sauna/hamaan/outdoor jacuzzi were for over 18s. So essentially the whole pool area was off limits to children. Service: As mentioned above, the service was abysmal. The worst I have ever experienced at a high-end hotel. House-keeping was non-existent. We had to raid our children's room for tea/coffee as nothing was replenished. Check-out was predictably chaotic. Some guests were almost in tears trying to complete the process with their cab waiting. No announcements when airport pick up buses arrived. It was each man for themselves. In summary, there appeared to be absolutely no one in charge and the staff were all totally out of their depth and dispirited and clueless. The hotel (especially with all the new chalets) is way beyond capacity. A staff member said there were well over 1,000 people staying that week. The hotel infrastructure is already at breaking point (the huge lift queues to get anywhere in the hotel meant we often just climbed flights of stairs). We were bemused to see a big marketing push to invest in new chalet rentals on-site when the hotel cannot cope with its current numbers. I’ve seen similar reviews below and the same trite response from Club Med (they are sorry, the review doesn’t reflect their values, feedback will be passed on). There is absolutely no evidence of any changes being implemented. We cannot run the risk of another appalling experience and will not be returning to Club Med.

Terrible value for money
Our stay at Club Med Grand Massif Samoëns was frankly awful: shambolic service, overcrowded restaurants, food as cold as the swimming pool and a “gourmet” dining experience which made Fawlty Towers look like Gordon Ramsey. We were left with the feeling that Club Med had cut every cost and squeezed every last cent out of guests in order to maximise profits at the expense of standards and service. On our first full day we tried to book into the gourmet restaurant for later in the week, but were amazed to be told it was fully booked for the whole week! After much argument my wife managed to get a table for the Friday evening: as Will be explained, this turned out to be less of a lucky break than it might appear. The buffet restaurant was crowded, with long queues for food, and great difficultly in finding any free tables. The problem was exacerbated by (a) tables being reserved for chalet owners, who never turned up; (b) the staff being terribly slow to clear and re-lay tables and (c), remarkably, staff eating at the same time as, and alongside, guests. This persisted throughout the week. Staff who were not enjoying food alongside us were rushed off to their feet and ordering drinks at the table was impossible. Food was tough, undercooked, overcooked and often cold. On New Year’s Eve we were encouraged to reserve a table in the buffet restaurant by pre-ordering a bottle of champagne or wine off the wine list, for which we had to pay. We did so, but on arrival our table was occupied, and we had to wait while staff found us another table, cleared it and re-played it. We were then offered our €40 bottle of wine with no ice bucket or cooler. NYE entertainment in the bar went from annoying (areas “reserved” but unoccupied”) through bizarre (Viking-themed dance set with montage of burning villages) and enjoyable (fireworks), to infuriating (champagne fountain set up but not a single glass offered to guests to toast 2025). Everything indicated desperate cost-cutting: coffee/tea in the bedrooms were not replenished; the swimming pool was freezing, while lockers in the changing room were broken; mattresses were hard and uncomfortable. On the Friday we finally made it to the gourmet restaurant. So many things were wrong I can only list bullet-points: * The limited menu was further limited because there was no dish of the day, no starter of the day, no chicken rillette starter, no potato churro starter, and no hot box main. My wife and daughter ended up not having a starter. * The table was laid with paper napkins (for a “gourmet restaurant), no soup spoon, no butter and no side plates for the bread (which was stale). * My son was still eating his soup when the waiter brought our sharing main course, a cheese fondue. For three adults and a teenager we were given one cheese fondue pot, one small bowl of bread chunks and a small plate of cold meat. * While we were still eating our main course our children were offered dessert, which was limited to only two options as the rest had run out. The waiter took their order and walked off without asking us if we wanted dessert! * No coffee was offered at the end of the evening. The entertainment was both amateurish - the final night’s entertainment was the staff dressing up in wigs and dancing on stage to different tunes - and formulaic. The DJ played exactly the same songs in almost the exact order every night, at a volume which drove most guests out of the bar, leaving the dance floor occupied, again, mostly by staff. The shambolic stay was concluded on the final day by chaos trying to check out. Despite having until 10am to leave our rooms, some keys stopped working before then, leaving half-packed suitcases locked away. No-one seemed to know where suitcases were to be stored pending our transfers, and when our bus finally left, ten people were missing and were left behind. We will not be back.
