Hotel Mont Blanc

Plush Alpine chalet in chic Megève

This classy Alpine chalet hotel in Mégève’s unspoilt town centre is drop-dead chic. Blond pine and oak panelling glow invitingly, and the confident mix of English country house and trad Haute Savoie works a treat.

Bedtime...

Special features
Bedrooms are trad Haute Savoie with a twist – well dressed beds, undressed big bathtubs. Expect antique wood panelling and warm Savoyard fabrics, big beds and cable TV. Some suites have delectable double jacuzzis and toasty open fires.

Pillow Talk
We loved the luxurious Suites, cocooned in true Alpine style in warm wood panelling and Savoyard fabrics. Centrepiece of the bathroom is a big round double jacuzzi bath – the perfect après-ski tonic.

Eat & Drink

Dining in
Named after Jean Cocteau's play of the same name, Les Enfants Terribles is a chic brasserie with an open kitchen where you can sneak a peek at chef Thierry Guinot at work. Choose from Alpine raclettes, fondues, and mixed grills, and do leave room for the afternoon teas, calorific hot chocolate and delicious cakes served every afternoon in the front salon.

Breakfast
Breakfast is served until 11am

Room service
Available morning and evening.

Activities

See & Do
Chances are you'll be on the piste in winter or out walking in the summer months. Megève's highly rated slopes are tailor-made for intermediate skiers, and if hurtling through all that white stuff isn't your scene, take a horse-drawn sleigh ride from the village square or try some open-air skating. You can always while away an afternoon breathing in that wonderful Alpine air with a warming vin chaud.

Spa
The Pure Altitude spa at Hotel Mont Blanc is all silver and white – very fittingly reflecting its Alpine surrounds with snow-sprinkled walls, igloo cabins and snowball lamps. Treatments are based on mountain plants and natural ingredients, and there's a swimming pool, outdoor jacuzzi and four treatment cabins.

Diary Dates
January
Watch a polo match on the snow while sipping champagne on ice – perfect.

March
The Golf Snowcup is lively and fun – wrap up warm.

July
It's time for the Megève Jazz contest – a week of great sounds.
