I won't try to suggest any individual places in France, although I have skied in France many times, I am really an Austria based skier.
However, that did make me think that you should identify the standard of your group's skiing level. Some ski in may require a certain standard. Had you asked about Austria, A great ski in, ski out is the Hotel Sportiv in Obergurgl. However, difficult for a beginner to ski to.
There is a method you can use. Look at the inside back leaf of the Inghams brochure. On the list for France, identify the locations that suit your ski capabilities. Then check against the individual resorts, looking for ski in/ski out. You can identify appropriate hotels or other accommodations.

I'd second much of what Dave has said - too many variables at work here unless we know a bit more about your group.
The Inghams brochure idea is a good one but, beware, even this can be subjective: as one example take Val d'Isere. Inghams offer several chalets and hotels here that are "ski in / out". Cant remember all names and don't have brochure to hand but one of the super swanky 5 star hotels is ski in / out IF your idea if ski in is to come down the Face black run at end of day when its busy and mogulled (it may be no problem to you but beginners will have no chance). Some of the other accommodation is off the end of the Santons run as it runs into town. You can see plenty of threads on here about Santons and how its never a blue - but for ski out its subjective as, though the piste goes past the accommodation, its flat at this point so its a walk not a ski
Plenty of other resorts will have similar issues - tell us more about your standard and we can help with resort/ accommodation choices
I'll start you with one in VDI: Chalet Danaides with Inghams - cosy, pleasant but basic. 20 yards from Front de Neige so def ski in/out for anyone
