Les Houches is ok as a resort for beginners but will quickly become boring for intermediates and above. Some fairly steep sections on the blues that will scare beginners trying to move on from the green. Some slopes get little sun so can be very icy. The route down into the village can become very busy in the afternoon with the snow quite choppy, but then you can use the gondola to come down. Not much in the way of apres-ski.
