Built in 1955, this is one of the original Val d'Isere hotels. Constructed of wood and stone, and renovated to a high standard, it remains faithful to the architectural style of the Haute Tarentaise.
Conveniently located in the heart of Val d’Isère, near the Tourist Office and opposite the famous Bellevarde Face.
It offers 41 charming rooms and suites; half of which are designed for families with a bunk bed corner for the children and a large room for the parents.
