The Experience

The Alpaga

A renowned 5-star hotel in Megève, has 22 rooms, 4 suite apartments, 5 chalets, a lounge, a restaurant “La Table de l’Alpaga” and a fantastic spa with a pool, two treatment rooms and a gym.  Only 5 minutes by carriage from the heart of the village opposite Mont-Blanc, the Alpaga is blessed by nature.  On three floors, the three wooden chalets blend perfectly with their natural surroundings.  Large patios and balconies offer fabulous views of the Megève area: traditional shingle rooftops, wooden eaves and wooden balconies.

The Alpaga is in the heart of the Alps. At 1,100 metres altitude, the Route de Prariand is the only place to enjoy breathtaking views of Mont-Blanc.  The Alpaga radiates in the heights of Megève. All the rooms, suite apartments, chalets and Collection rooms offer a wonderful environment at the heart of the resort.  Whatever the season, you will enjoy the sun’s rays on the immaculate snow topping Mont-Blanc. Truly astonishing scenery !

ACCOMMODATIONS

The Alpaga has 22 rooms decorated in a contemporary style with views of the surrounding mountains.  The textures and materials combine to provide the comfort and warmth of a traditional chalet: sanded wood, stone, flannel and wool, cashmere and wool for rugs and carpets, plaids and fake furs…

The rooms are cosseted in two chalets. The large French windows open onto the mountains or mountain pastures providing access to balconies and patios. They appear to invite the surrounding landscape into the room.

The suite apartments are in the Gaspard Chalet, so named as a tribute to the resort’s famous mountain guide. The chalet has five independent apartments, and the space is adaptable to the families staying there. The design of the Alpaga chalets is reflected in their architecture.

Covering 250m², the Alpaga chalets have been designed in the purest Megève tradition. They can cater for up to 12 people on 3 floors with 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.  Each chalet has modern living areas and boasts faultless décor, with views of the Megève landscape: traditional shingle rooftop, wooden eaves and wooden balconies, wooden fireplace topped with sheet iron.  Three garages one of which is heated, and a private garden are alongside the chalet.  The large patios invite guests to enjoy the sunshine as they admire Mont-Blanc.
