Chalet Mont d´Or is contemporary and chic with sleek, plush furnishings and fixtures that you would expect from perhaps a 4 star boutique hotel in Covent Garden. Located in the best and prettiest of the Meribel villages, Meribel Les Allues (10 minutes drive to Méribel centre), the chalet offers an ideal base to explore Europe’s largest ski area, the Three Valleys.



Chalet Mont d´Or has been awarded the prestigious ´Label Méribel´ an independent classification system specifically for the Meribel valley, that gives great importance to elements such as comfort, ambiance and decoration as well as to the quality of floor and wall coverings, the use of typical mountain materials such as wood and rustic plaster. It also takes into account the harmony of furniture, textiles and lighting as well as up-to-date bathrooms and kitchens. The Meribel Label guarantees high quality accommodation, a harmonious decoration of all rooms and above all a mountain style and a warm and comfortable chalet atmosphere, all of which you can experience at Chalet Mont d´Or.



To the left of the entrance door is the ski and boot room with ski rack and boot warmers to ensure your boots dry out ready for a comfortable day’s skiing. There is also a communal WC immediately on the left and stairways leading to the upper and lower levels. The spacious lounge offers a warm and relaxing area with ample seating for 14-16 and the south facing wall is fitted with panoramic windows offering superb views towards the Saulire mountain and Meribel valley.

The Sauna

The benefits of using our sauna are numerous. Not least because it is so relaxing and leaves your body soothed and your mind serene. It´s main advantage lies in the fact that it promotes sweating, helping the body to rid itself of toxins. It is also believed that exposure of the skin to heat stimulates the production of white blood cells and strengthens the immune system. The heat and humidity of the sauna also diffuses pain and relaxes tired muscles. It is also believed to improve blood circulation and breathing, promote weight loss (it burns about 300 calories per average session) and aid skin cleansing.



The Hot Tub

The terrace is fitted with a Hot Tub romantically lit at night with fairy lights from where you can appreciate this truly special location whilst sipping a glass of champagne!



Enhanced service

At Chalet Mont d´Or we enhance our already high quality service by employing an experienced chef to ensure all your food is utterly scrumptious. You can expect breakfast with a hot option, self service afternoon tea with freshly baked cakes and biscuits and a five course evening meal starting with pre-dinner drinks and canapés, a delicious starter, a nutritiously balanced main course and a dessert to die for. The finale is the wonderful cheeseboard and we also serve petit fours with coffee in the lounge after dinner.



The Chalet Hosts offer a choice of drinks from their honesty bar and there are a couple of bars in Les Allues (a 5 minute walk from the chalet).



Chalet Mont d´Or is a non-smoking chalet and ashtrays are provided on balconies for smokers.

We have always had compliments about our food so be prepared for mouth-watering food every day. We run the very successful Ultimate Chalet Host Cookery Course outside of the winter season which teaches budding chalet hosts how to cook tasty and nutritious meals for large numbers and how to run a chalet. We hand pick some of staff from these courses, so you can expect a high standard of cuisine, with attention being paid to the quality of the ingredients which will always be fresh and chosen by us.
