Brides-les-Bains is a commune in the Savoie department in the Rhône-Alpes region in south-eastern France.

It was an Olympic Village for the 1992 Winter Olympics, based in Albertville, France.

It is a popular holiday destination for English tourists, owing to its easy accessibility via Eurostar direct from London and its cable-car link direct to the ski slopes at Méribel, a major resort eight miles (13 km) away.

Although Brides-les-Bains' main attraction to tourists is its convenience for Méribel, the village boasts a few attractions, including several health spas and a casino, and a few sites of historic or cultural interest, including the springs from which the town takes its name, a medieval church and a statue made out of piping titled "La Manche de Chapeau" (French: "The Sleeve of a Hat").
