Luxury Spa Hotels in Meribel-Mottaret — 6 of Our Favourites

The hotel is the fruit of 50 years of family work. In 1963 long before the birth of Meribel, Marius and Lucette Dallery laid the foundation stone of La Chaudanne. This was to be the first step of a family history that would see three generations follow and perpetuate this way of life in the mountains. More than a job, welcoming guests to their home is a passion for this family of hotelkeepers.

Each room is unique, combining wonderful characteristic the warm wooden interiors of the mountains with modern luxury. All rooms are equipped with bath or shower room, telephone, TV with satellite channels, free WiFi broadband, mini bar and safe.
