Though it may not be as frequented as some other Alpine destinations, we probably love Megève the most. It is one of the most magical places we know.
Next to Megève's main square, this contemporary design hotel brings walnut wood details, bunk beds for younger guests, and sunny terraces to a traditional cobblestoned village. Ideally placed for morning ski lifts and après parties. Hot chocolate by the fire, a Tata Harper treatment in the spa, and excellent nightlife beyond the hotel door. Smart ski hotel in the thick of things.
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.
A café. A brasserie. A cocktail bar. Le Hibou Blanc does it all. We love this cosy, family-friendly spot for a casual dinner whenever we're in Megève.
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.
