Hotel des Dromonts, Avoriaz

Legendary- Literally perched on the edge of a cliff this iconic building is a true legend in Avoriaz where it was the first address to be built in 1964 in this revolutionary resort. The hotel maintains its true original spirit after more than fifty years and is now a vintage and cosy retreat with its 60’s architecture fully renovated and completely rejuvenated by the right modern touches and a cleverly redesigned layout for contemporary mountain needs.

Back to the future– You don’t need to reach 88 miles per hour in a DeLorean to go back in time, the Hotel des Dromonts can take you to a warm and cosy version of the swinging 60’s made with bright colours and retro bespoke designed furniture. The 35 various size rooms available from club room, a sort of skier’s pod with built-in furniture, to Family Suites have precise identities, tinted red cedar woodwork, vibrant 60’s style fabrics, boudoir style relaxation baths, and windows designed to maximise the views of the surrounding mountains. Here you can even imagine staying in an alpine version of Austin’s pad. Groovy Babe!
