HOTEL LE COEUR DES NEIGES

The hotel where the snow and clouds stay

Surrounded by snow-capped mountains all year round, Saint-Gervais-les-Bains is a small but wonderful city that captivates Europeans with its ski slopes and spectacular scenery. Let's go to the cozy and charming Hotel Le Coeur des Neiges that resembles Saint-Gervais-les-Bains.

 

BEAUTIFUL HOTEL IN THE ALPS

Built in 1901 as a house of a pharmacist in the Salanshou region, it was remodeled in the 1920s and operated as a hotel named ‘La Maison Blanche’. In 2017, it was newly renovated and renamed ‘Le Coeur des Neiges’. You can easily find the hotel just a few steps down from the town square where the town hall and the cathedral are located.

When you enter the hotel, you will find an elegant yet warm space as the living room of the mansion, which is different from the lobby of regular hotels. It is a space for everyone to sit down and spend time comfortably at any hour.

It is a place where you can have a feeling of not just a hotel, but of a family villa, thanks to the friendly hostess and the kind staff.
