Where to stay
Méribel is spread over several neighbourhoods, so where you stay shapes the feel of the weekend. July is peak summer season, so book early, and check that your hotel is open in July, as some mountain hotels close outside the ski season.
Les Allues and Méribel Village
Quiet and traditional, and close to the church in Les Allues. Good if you want calm and gentle walks.
Méribel Centre
The liveliest part, with shops, restaurants and lifts close by.
Méribel-Mottaret
Higher up, near Lac de Tuéda, and the easiest base for the mountains.
Hotels worth a look
