Eringer Hotel
Modular timber lodge
Modular timber lodge
The lodge trades rustic chalet tropes for clean modular design, giving skiers an unpretentious mountain perch at 1,800 meters.
What it’s good at
Notable
Bathrobe corridors lead directly to thermal spring pools and subterranean sensory grottos.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Rooms use sustainably harvested timber sourced less than 65 kilometers away, an award-winning construction method that gives them a distinctly alpine character.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The Les Masses ski slopes sit right outside, with the wider 4 Vallées domain stretching across the surrounding ridges.

The rooms
Locally harvested timber lines each room, where floor-to-ceiling windows look straight out toward the Dent Blanche.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated outdoor pool steams against snowy alpine peaks, connected indoors to stone-clad thermal baths.
The spa
Tiered pine benches fill saunas scented with lavender, and quiet relaxation rooms rest behind vertical timber slats.
Bar
Le Deck
Sheepskin-topped stools line this outdoor timber bar on the terrace, built for sunny après-ski and open mountain views.
At the table
Drinks are poured beside a central fireplace in the lobby, and dining rooms serve 48-hour fermented Neapolitan pizza.
How it began
Each room was built off-site as a prefabricated timber box, then assembled onto concrete mountain foundations.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
