This modern chalet runs on a classic ski rhythm, focused on early morning lifts and fireside drinks at dusk.
What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Large, modern, chalet style building set at the top of the resort. Spacious, English style rooms all with a balcony.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Bergers chairlifts sit fifty metres away, opening up the entire Alpe d'Huez ski domain at 1,800 metres.
The rooms
Every bedroom opens onto a private balcony facing the mountains, finished inside with warm timber and velvet.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The pool and spa
The heated indoor pool looks onto snow through full-height windows, steps from a hot tub and Pure Altitude treatments.
Restaurant
Les Terrasses du Rif Briant
Breakfast tables sit beside panoramic windows facing snowy pines, and dinner brings traditional mountain cooking above the Rif Briant.
At the table
The Chartreuse Bar serves herbal cocktails across a rough-hewn timber counter, set beside the fireplace.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
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.
Heritage
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.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
