What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
this large mountain chalet offers exclusivity and elegance. The warm Alpine atmosphere is echoed in the guestrooms, most of which are decorated in classic style
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Perched at 2,050 meters, the grounds look directly onto the Matterhorn, with private shuttles running to the valley ski lifts.
The rooms
Hand-carved alpine timber and regional textiles frame private balconies looking out toward the surrounding larch forests and jagged peaks.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Cervinia spring water fills the heated indoor pool, set beside timber loungers and a stainless-steel hydrotherapy waterfall.
The spa
Bellefontaine rituals use Swiss glacier water and mountain botanicals, and hydrotherapy beds provide water massages under soft blue light.
The gym
The fitness room houses Technogym cardio machines and strength equipment against mirrored, wood-paneled walls.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Ristorante La Chandelle serves Valle d'Aosta regional cuisine under timber beams, and bartenders pour champagne at the curved wooden bar.
How it began
The Neyroz family has operated this high-altitude refuge since 1975, filling the timber halls with their personal alpine art collection.
