If you are looking for a pretty resort in the heart of the French Alps then it is a good idea to head to Meribel. This is a skiing location with something to offer people of all skill levels and it provides the perfect destination for a relaxing skiing holiday. That said, there is another side to the ski resort and that is the night life.
Some resorts in France have a very limited number of bars and these are often very far apart from each other. For the skier who wants to go on a bar crawl in the evening this can be very challenging as you won’t want to walk long distances in the snow. Meribel offers a very different experience and there are several bars packed together in the same area. There are also many clubs with parties that continue late into the night.
Le Rond Point has developed a bit of a reputation for its parties that occur after people finish skiing and there is often great live music playing in the early part of the evening. There are also several other locations nearby were live music is performed and bands are capable of getting everyone up for some dancing.
Another location for particularly friendly after skiing events is Lodge de Village. This location also serves good food and there is a chairlift nearby for easy access to other locations. This bar is actually located in Meribel Village which is separate from Meribel proper, but there is a bus that connects the two places and it only takes a few minutes to get between them.
Jack’s is a party filled location with a regular happy hour running for an hour from 9PM. There are also frequent theme evenings being run at the bar and often comedy nights are held with big names such as Al Murray.
Another central bar is Barometer which is known for having special offers on its drinks with some of them being available for as little as one euro. Another bar called Scott’s has a two for one cocktail deal every day. If you’re looking for a more upmarket establishment then you would be wise to head to Le Poste which attracts more French people and is generally a less raucous establishment.
If you are looking for a cosy location then La Taverne is the place to be, it has a more relaxed atmosphere and serves up some good food. There is also free Wi-Fi if you have a laptop, and computers to use if you do not. Drinks here are also very reasonably priced compared to elsewhere and there are often excellent live DJs.
Once the bars have closed nightclubs in the area start-up, there are two main locations that are frequented by very different crowds. One of them is called Les Saint Peres which is very popular with the French and hosts notable live DJs on Monday nights. The other option is Dick’s Tea Bar, which is much more popular with English clientele.
