A mountain restaurant where emotion reigns supreme, Flocons de Sel is the gem of the beautiful hotel in which it's situated. The rooms are cosy and expansive, and the staff is super friendly.

Le Bistrot de l'Alpaga has a sophisticated bistronomic menu created with market-bought ingredients: quirky fish dishes, beautifully dressed meats and very decadent desserts are accompanied with super-cool cocktails.

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. 

Le Piaf brings the exuberant spirit of its Parisian namesake to the Alps in a theatrical chalet imagined by Dion & Arles. Inside, brushed softwoods, embroidered alpine textiles, hanging rugs, vintage chandeliers, and corduroy velvet create a cocooning, mountain-chic setting around the fireplace. Start your evening by the piano bar with cocktails and refined small bites – taramas, mini croque-monsieurs, and smoked salmon – before settling into the restaurant for comforting French classics such as foie gras salad, roast chicken in jus, beef tenderloin with fries and a decadent chocolate mousse.

Le Prieuré is chef Emmanuel Renaut’s convivial village bistro set beside the church on Place de l’Église, in a historic chalet once renovated by Henry-Jacques Le Même. Inside, pale woods, parquet floors and a remarkable painted coffered ceiling inspired by alpine motifs welcome guests from morning coffee to dinner. The menu celebrates generous Savoyard-leaning bistro cooking – reblochon-filled bites, alpine lake fish, local cheeses and comforting desserts such as chocolate mousse – paired with Savoie wines.
