Hotels often have the biggest pools, and sometimes an indoor pool in the spa as well. In Avoriaz, Morzine and Les Gets, family hotels and chalets to rent often hide an indoor pool. Here are the 10 hotels I've selected in Avoriaz and Morzine, all rated at least 8/10; I particularly recommend Hôtel Névé, Hôtel Club Le Crêt and Le Soly Hotel.
Each city has its own selection, with a page for each type of accommodation.
Places are ranked from highest to lowest rated. The yellow bubble shows the advertised water temperature, when it's known.
