La Chaumiere Chalet Hotel
24 bedroom chalet-hotel in Morzine, 20 metres from the pistes
This chalet hotel is situated just 20 metres from the Pleney piste and a short 10-minute walk from the centre of Morzine.
Boasting a ski in / ski out location (conditions permitting) and small heated swimming pool, la Chaumiere is one of Morzine’s most authentic and highly revered chalet-hotels. Set at the foot of the Pleney mountain immediately below one of the main ‘home runs’, it is possible to ski to within 60 metres. The Pleney cable car and village centre are a 10 minute walk or quick in-house shuttle ride away.
The hotel has a mix of contemporary and traditional design which results in all the charm of the past alongside chic furnishings and modern conveniences. Husband and wife team Michele and Franck (alongside daughter Margot and son Julien) work tirelessly to create a special place to stay.
The hotel has 24 newly renovated and individually designed ensuite bedrooms which are tastefully furnished and have everything you need on a ski holiday. All beds are ‘zip and link’, hence can be made up as twin or double – or choose from larger triple and family quad rooms. Bedrooms and bathrooms are immaculately clean, and well equipped with television, WiFi, kettle, bathrobes, telephone, hairdryer, heated towel rails and a shared balcony with wonderful mountain views.
For relaxation, there is an indoor/outdoor heated swimming pool and in the summer months, there is a lovely terrace surrounding the pool where you can enjoy a refreshing drink.
The Bar
After a day on the mountain, you can look forward to a relaxing drink in the hotel's charming wood-clad bar. This cosy and inviting area includes comfortable leather armchairs, faux fur throws, several bar stools and a fireplace. A range of beverages from wines and beers through to spirits and cocktails as well as soft drinks, coffee and tea are on offer.
The Restaurant
The hotel’s restaurant is elegant and sophisticated, where time is taken to enjoy the dining experience and nothing is ever rushed. Michele and Franck place great emphasis on the quality of their classic home-made French cuisine and exquisite desserts. The buffet breakfast is equally lavish and designed to impress.
