Seminars and company events
Ski seminars, management retreats and private evenings for groups of up to 70 at dinner can be organized at Le Val Thorens, a Beaumier hotel at the foot of the slopes in Val Thorens, in the commune of Les Belleville in Savoie. The whole hotel can be privatized for a professional or a private event, and its 80 rooms let a company keep its full group under one roof for the length of the program.
The events page of the hotel presents a meeting space called Le Board, listed for a maximum of 50 people. The photos show U-shaped and theatre layouts, a ceiling projector and an LED screen. For larger programs, the same page points to the resort's congress facilities: 12 modular meeting rooms, two auditoriums of up to 437 seats and two arenas, for up to 3,000 people in all. A sales convention can therefore hold its plenary sessions in the resort while the hotel hosts the group, the dinners and the evenings.
The hotel opens directly onto Les 3 Vallées, so working mornings can be followed by an afternoon on skis. Private celebrations, such as birthdays or end-of-season parties, are also accepted.
Rooms and capacities
Le Board is the meeting room, for up to 50 people in a U-shape or theatre layout. La Fondue seats up to 70 people and runs a second evening service, from 9:15 p.m. to midnight, set aside for groups. Espace Caron, a restaurant and multipurpose space at 3,200 meters of altitude, is offered for events and seminars; the site gives no capacity for it. Le 1971 is an alpine bar with an indoor lounge and live music, useful for drinks after a working day. A large outdoor terrace suits lunches and cocktails in good weather.
Accommodation
The hotel has 80 rooms, two of them adapted for guests with reduced mobility, plus a Suite Beaumier for a speaker or a senior guest. A wellness offer completes the stay. Booking the whole hotel gives a company the full room inventory, which simplifies the rooming list for a group of several dozen.
Catering
Three venues are run by the hotel: Le 1971, La Fondue and the Brasserie du Val Thorens. Breakfast, working lunches, a fondue evening and a cocktail on the terrace can all be planned without leaving the building. Menus for groups are set with the hotel team.
History and setting
Le Val Thorens belongs to Beaumier, a French collection of hotels in the mountains and by the sea. The address is 2 place de l'Église, in the center of the resort. Val Thorens is among the highest ski resorts in Europe, built above the tree line, which keeps the season long and the snow reliable for winter seminars.
Getting there
The nearest railway station is Moûtiers, in the valley below, served by TGV trains from Paris and by seasonal trains in winter; buses and taxis climb to the resort in about an hour. The closest airports are Chambéry, Lyon and Geneva. Groups usually book a private coach transfer from the station or the airport.
