Modern Design & Lively
One MICHELIN Key · A very special stay
Val Thorens makes much of its status as the Alps’ highest ski resort; more practically, it makes much of its status as its largest, at least in terms of terrain. And Altapura answers a number of perennial ski-hotel complaints — it’s modern in style without sacrificing a sense of place, it’s comfortable without lapsing into kitsch, and it’s proof positive that a stylish social scene and a family-friendly vibe need not be mutually exclusive.
The visual style initially reads as somewhat minimalist, though in the colors and textures of a classic French alpine lodge. In a ski lodge, however, the tactile pleasures often take precedence over the visual ones. Here Altapura doesn’t disappoint. The rooms, however striking, are never stark, and that modern furniture lacks for nothing in terms of comfort.
The three restaurants inhabit equally contemporary spaces, but vary in atmosphere, from fondue at the ultra-cozy La Laiterie to the Italian-Alpine Casa Alta to 2Mille3, with its view of the summit. Meanwhile the Pure Altitude spa, with its seven treatment rooms and heated indoor pool, is a viable alternative to a day on the slopes. And last but not least, Altapura benefits from ski-in ski-out access, as well as a ski shop in partnership with Goitschel.
Please note: Altapura is a seasonal hotel, and is open annually from late November thru mid-April.
