Magnificently located in the heart of the Portes du Soleil, Hôtel Plein Ciel is an excellent mountain retreat whether you are looking to hit the slopes in winter or hike them in summer. The popular destination comprises 13 mountain resorts between Mont Blanc in France and Lake Geneva in Switzerland. The hotel is situated in the picturesque Swiss village of Champery, with its narrow streets, rustic wooden buildings, small cafes and shops and very friendly atmosphere.
Each well-equipped room is spacious yet cosy with charming rustic features and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains which offer plenty of outdoor activities where you can make unforgettable memories with friends and family. Hike one of many breathtaking trails through the mountains, whether you opt to pass through the Antème Lakes, take the smuggler’s path to Barme plateau, or conquer the orator’s circuit which stretches from Chavalet to Barmaz.
For a simpler excursion, visit the quaint village of Champery where you will feel like you are stepping into a fairytale. Nestled in the mountains - which are covered in snow or luscious and green depending on the season - the village consists of narrow streets, rustic chalets, quirky cafes, and boutique shops with a friendly atmosphere.
Back at the resort, take advantage of the restaurant which serves local cuisine made with fresh, seasonal, and local produce. Enjoy your meal on the outdoor terrace which is particularly pleasant in the summer season and in the evenings when you can watch the sunset over the peaks. In the winter season, dinner is best served indoors around the impressive fireplace. There is also a bar corner with a wide selection of drinks to choose from.
When you are not exploring the mountains, enjoy a quiet moment of reading by the fireside with a book or visit the hotel’s sauna and mini gym.
