Megève
in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

Chalet Lupo is a cosy alpine hideaway just above the village, loved for its warm wood-clad interiors and breathtaking mountain views. Come for elevated Italian comfort dishes – the scialatielli with mullet bottarga and lemon zest or pappardelle with rich ragù are our top picks – best paired with a glass from the thoughtfully curated wine list after a day on the slopes.

A classic on-the-slopes mountain restaurant, Le Cœur d'Or is perched at 1,525 metres at the top of the Beauregard gondola, equally beloved by skiers in winter and hikers in summer. The rustic chalet serves generous Savoyard comfort dishes – including fondue, tartiflette, croûtes and pela – best enjoyed on the sunny terrace before carving back down. In the evening, it transforms into a cosy alpine experience reached by snowmobile, with set dinners and a magical descent under the stars. 

We adore this cosy mountain bistro for the views as much as the insanely good Savoie specialties. Grab a table outside if the weather is good or snuggle up inside the wood-panelled main room.
