Family run

The story of  Le Chalet Mounier began in 1879 with the construction of a farmhouse inn. The Mounier family converted the inn into a hotel in 1933, and since then it has run by generations of the family. They have managed to keep all of the inn's historic charm intact, providing guests with a peaceful retreat in the French Alps. With a cosy lounge and welcoming bar, delicious gourmet restaurant, luxury spa and conveniently located by the ski slopes, this hotel ticks all the boxes for a winter getaway
