Verified reviewPoor selection of skis, no choice in ski size or different skis (told nothing longer than 174cm available in the store when both of us ski usually with longer skis!!) and the skis given were poorly maintained. Given boots based on what I said were my shoe size with no attempt to measure feet, so ended up with boots too big twice. Hire shop assistant did not appear knowledgeable nor helpful. Should have gone to Intersport or one of the other ski shops - where have had better experience before - regardless of discount codes and decathlon discount it wasn't worth it....you get better by paying a bit more elsewhere.

Verified reviewI paid for intermediate skis but was given old worn skis which we refused and asked for refund. They then gave us fairly new skis which were grand . I also paid for insurance when booking but they said they knew nothing about that!

Verified reviewFriendly and very helpful. I didn’t take the original boots that were chosen for me, but the replacement ones were very wet inside after skiing which is the only reason for 4 stars. My hotel didn’t have a decent drying room though, so I returned two days later and they were easily changed. The following day, the wrong skis were taken on the ski lift (either by me or the other person) and in the evening the shop contacted me. I returned the “wrong” skis that evening and they replaced them with different ones. The others in our group had no issues throughout the week. Excellent service.

Verified reviewWe went to the shop at the bottom of the mountain where we were supposed to go to collect our equipment. We were greeted with a huge school trip, at 9am, and was told we’d be better off going up the mountain to the sister shop. We did this and after a long queue into this shop we were charged again for warranty and theft protection despite me explaining that I had already paid for this online but was told it wouldn’t count as it was through Skimium not their shop. We didn’t get on the slopes till 10:30am after all this.
