Alpine fairway chalet
A family-owned alpine retreat open strictly for golf and ski seasons, pairing fairway views with quiet Swiss hospitality.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Italian limestone bathrooms stocked with Bulgari amenities, paired with private resort transfers.
What they say
Two Michelin Keys
Michelin
The hotel’s chalet-style buildings house rooms and suites outfitted in a modern alpine style: exposed beams, elegant wood furnishings, original artwork, and Italian limestone bathrooms.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Cross-country ski trails run directly past the grounds, with private resort shuttles running to the nearby Crans-Cry d'Er ski lifts.
The rooms
Warm timber, exposed beams, and Italian limestone baths define the rooms, while private terraces look directly across the Valais Alps.
Pool, sauna and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated indoor pool sits beside a Finnish sauna overlooking the water, flanked by a dedicated fitness room.
The spa
Four treatment suites include a couples room with a private hammam, offering organic body rituals and La Colline facials.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Restaurant FIVE serves Levantine mezze across mountain terraces, and Les Alpes Bar mixes aperitifs against warm wood paneling.
How it began
Founded in 2009 by Nati and Giancarlo Felli, the chalet was purpose-built directly beside the historic Crans-sur-Sierre golf fairways.
