Rocketski are very helpful and give great value for money. This is my second time of using Rocketski and I would definitely use them again.

Have travelled with rocketski several times over the last couple of years. Been with them to Serre Che, Risoul, Montgenevre. Overall I have been very satisfied with the experience. Ultimately, as with all things, you do get what you pay for and they do not offer a luxury alpes experience. But it has always been great food, staff and everything you need from a ski hotel. Will always look at what they have to offer each season!

Always room for improvement. Should have a tureen of porridge available every morning and a microwave available for guests to use to heat their food if required. Most French restros have microwaves and find their lack rather annoying. Or the willingness of staff to make porridge!

Went on a great ski trip to Serve Chevalier with Rocketski in March. Great customer service and well organised trip. Could not have been more helpful! Excellent price, everyone had a great time - can't wait for next year!!

Tried Rocket Ski for the 1st time (had looked at them before but not actually booked) and went to Le Corbier in March 2019. Was not our 1st choice re resort but we booked late and needed to find somewhere with suitable accommodation for our party ( all in their 40s/50s) and which ranged from a beginner to a v fit black run expert The Rocket UK staff were helpful on the phone and suggested a couple of choices re resort but Le Corbier had the best fit re accommodation (we were told that there were 2 large school groups the week we were booking) and they were honest about the rooms and chalet hotel Fantastic location 2 mins from a range of lifts and loads of ski runs with access to adjacent valleys via the top drag lifts (but watch queues at certain times of the day) Good for different abilities as we could split up and easily meet up at the bottom having taken different runs if say someone (me!) did not fancy the steeper runs Also good for beginners (we had one in our group) and it was easy to meet up after their lessons we even got our beginner to do a run all the way from the top to the bottom by using the green and blue runs Not the prettiest of places but good cafes and bars overlooking the slopes and a reasonable choice re somewhere to eat on the staff day off. Food in the chalet hotel surprisingly good - OK no choice but what we had was well presented and tasty and better than we expected for a budget holiday and the staff were attentive and helpful e.g. getting us extra bread when we asked. House wine was too rough for us ( we did try both the red and white - once!!) and at the time we were there that’s all they had, but we were able to bring our own in from the local supermarket ( we asked 1st) which sorted this No problems with the school parties - all the children were well behaved even on the 3 hour transfer (both there and back) and as long as you timed your breakfast run in the hotel and you used the large boot room before or after them no issues getting out in the mornings. (Was not that bad on the days we did clash either - all the kids were polite and made room for us) Best thing was “no parents!” (in our experience it’s always seems to be the parents who get upset and complain) - Just school teachers who kept the kids under control (Loved the post breakfast morning speeches in the mornings re have you got sunscreen glass gloves etc - quite a few different styles and on at least one occasion I had to sneak back to my room to get something I’d forgotten) . Only down side was the chalet hotel was very very “echoey” so was very noisy with the schoolchildren wandering around in the evenings (this was not the children’s fault it was more the design of the hotel with tiled stairs and some tiled floors) We were relatively Ok being at the edge of the hotel but it was really bad for our friends who were in a room next to the stairs so were disturbed all night. Rooms OK - clean and enough space but with basic beds so not the best mattresses esp after a days skiing (although they were not that bad and were adequate even for me at 16 stone in my late 50’s so it might have been more to do with its the amount of skiing we did - which was loads !!) Decent shower with plenty of hot water at all times (often been somewhere in much smarter chalets and hotels where this has not been the case !!) If you want to do loads of skiing and don’t want haute cuisine but simply enough food to re-charge the batteries and can cope with school children (and teachers) for a week then this is for you Overall very good value and would use Rocket ski again Was tempted to say 4 stars due to the nosey hotel but for a budget ski holiday and Rocket skis service they deserve 5 stars.

Having used sister company Equity for my school ski trips. The choice was a no brainer! I had the the most fantastic week in Serre Chevalier. Hotel and staff were super and nothing was a problem to them. Will book again... and again!

I have been with Rocket ski holidays to six different ski resorts. The resorts are all close to the ski slopes.The hotels used are great value and the food is great, but the best part is the Staff they are always willing to help and nothing is any problem.A great company to chose when looking for a good deal on ski trips.I will be booking again with them for next season.My only negative is that they only fly from Gatwick,or Manchester. it would be great if they could fly from Newcastle or Edinburgh.

Accomodation and food is normally basic, but price of a weeks skiing reflects this. Typically plenty of hot water and friendly staff. So if cost rather than luxury is important, to get your fix of skiing, Rocket Ski is a great choice. 5 times for me, all good, apart from very noisy room in Risoul, due to local night club, but off set by very close walk to piste. I would try and ask for another room next time though.

We had our 2nd holiday with Rocketski last Christmas - in Le Morgan, Risoul. Fairly basic hotel but warm & clean with friendly, helpful staff. Good food throughout the week & a great location for access to the slopes.

Really great staff, courteous and helpful. The food was better than we expected. Unfortunately, our hotel is not being used by Rocket Ski this year in Serre Chevalier or I'd book right away.

This Rocket Ski trip met my expectations. They make use of chalet hotels usually filled with school groups to offer any additional rooms in the form of cheap ski trips. Whilst there we had one school group present and several “Rockets”, some in big groups and some as a pair or trio. The staff were helpful throughout. The food was excellent value and the ski fit was good for both skiiers and boarders (who popped to the neighbouring shop for their kit).

Everything was spot on, really good value for money, simple but clean accommodation. Very friendly and helpful English staff. Food was very English and the best point was the location of the hotel to the ski lifts. Plenty of runs to ski runs for all abilities, straight forward flights and transfers. Plain and simply, I want to go again.
