    Hotel Beauregard

    La Clusaz 

    Exuding style, the Beauregard is a place to indulge, be that in the spa, where you’ll find a large swimming pool with floor-to-ceiling windows, a panoramic sauna, and a range of treatments on offer, or in the restaurant, which serves reinterpretations of traditional mountain dishes featuring local, seasonal produce. The well-appointed bedrooms all boast a balcony overlooking the village.

    Hotel l’Alpage

    Chinaillon 

    The welcoming Alpage is the epitome of a Savoyard hotel, with plenty of wood panelling, carved wooden furniture, and a colour palette dominated by red and white. The inviting lounge has large windows looking across the village to the mountains beyond, but even better views can be enjoyed from the terrace, where drinks and dinner are served in good weather.

    Hotel les Cimes

    Chinaillon 

    At once both stylish and intimate, Les Cimes comprises a handful of wood-clad rooms and suites which have been decorated with great flair and attention to detail to create a cosy, relaxing atmosphere. The hotel bar is equally as inviting, and there is also a small wellness area with a steam room and sauna.

  Hotel la Croix Saint Maurice

  Le Grand Bornand 

  At La Croix Saint Maurice you are right at the very heart of the village – it is located on the main square, opposite the church. As such, there’s often a pleasant buzz at its bar and terrace, which is popular with both visitors and locals. The hotel’s décor is modern yet in keeping with local traditions. Besides the bar and restaurant, facilities include a lounge, sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi.

    Hotel Le Pélican

    Annecy 

    One of the main focal points of Le Pélican is its outdoor space – here, just 100 metres or so from the lake, you’ll find not only a good-sized swimming pool with an adjoining bar, but also a pétanque court in the shade of a century-old cedar. The hotel has its own restaurant, but you are also within easy walking distance of the eateries in the Old Town.
