Equipment ok, correct price, however, arrived on Sunday evening, 30 minutes before closing, impossible to get the skis, had to come back the next day, this is not the first time this has happened at this Ski Republic Plagne Centre, if you do not want online reservations, change your operating mode.

Pleasant welcome, but the ski equipment was not at all up to our expectations or our level. Despite a displayed price of around €300 (with a significant promotion), the skis were worn out and the boots clearly aging, far from current standards. Compared to friends who rented from the neighboring agency Intersport, the quality difference is clearly in their favor.

I rented two junior packs for 4 days, but my son did not want to ski so I returned the pack after one day and in exchange the shop refused to lend me a pair of women's boots and women's skis for just one day to avoid losing my money. Not customer-friendly at all.

Friendly staff, but the ranges of skis and shoes do not necessarily match the paid offer on the internet (often inferior) and the response given to the customer is that the website contains errors ... Aging equipment and not very well maintained, probably due to turnover, which required a return for exchange on the second day (exchange went well in itself). Support during fittings is also questionable as I have experienced better in other stores because it was too passive, perhaps linked to the approach of the end of the season I don't know .. To summarize, quite disappointed with the service overall .. we will therefore go to the competition next year ..

Response from Ski Republic
Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are sincerely sorry to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations.
Regarding the equipment, we strive to provide gear corresponding to the reserved ranges, sometimes with alternatives or upgrades depending on availability. It is true that some ranges may present already used equipment, which is inherent to rentals, but it is regularly checked and maintained.
We also take into account your comment about the in-store support. Listening and advising are integral parts of our service, and we regret if this was not perceived that way during your visit.
We note, however, that the equipment exchange was able to be carried out quickly, which remains essential to ensure the continuity of your stay.
Your feedback is important for us to improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to offer you a better experience in the future.
Best regards.

I was very disappointed with my experience this time! I booked to hire from Val d'isere and when I arrived to collect my skis the shop was closed. The other branches in the village were also closed! It wasted 2 hours of our first day trying to locate ski hire even though I had already paid with ski republic!

Response from Ski Republic
Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are sorry to read about the issues you experienced with the equipment, and we understand how inconvenient this must have been during your stay.
Regarding your daughter’s skis, we confirm that she returned to the shop and that the equipment was readjusted. Our team also advised to come back immediately if the issue occurred again so that we could provide a replacement. Unfortunately, we were not informed of any further problem during the week.
Concerning your friend’s skis, we were only made aware of the issue at the end of the rental period, which unfortunately did not allow us to intervene earlier and offer a solution during your stay.
Please note that all our equipment is regularly checked and maintained, but technical issues can occasionally occur. When they do, our teams are always available to adjust or replace the equipment as quickly as possible.
We regret the inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding.
Kind regards.

We arrived at 7pm to collect our ski gear and were told to come back the next day as ski rental closed at 7pm. We said the website said 7.30pm close, but they said that’s just the sales side of the shop, not rentals. It would be useful for the confirmation email or website to say this, as it would have meant we’d miss the skiing the next morning. Luckily he agreed to serve us in the end that day. More generally, my boots didn’t quite fit right and I found the staff to be rude and dismissive when I flagged this. One of the carrying handles on my boots was also broken, and my helmet was uncomfortable.
