Samoëns (74340)
Animals not allowed

Our team will be delighted to welcome you for a drink, a meal or even a night. We offer rooms for 3 to 6 beds with a private bathroom for each of them. We will receive you for a stopover on your way on the GR96. In winter you can live the magical experience of sleeping on the Grand Massif area, in its wild part. The fireplace will allow you to relax after a good day of riding.
You will enjoy a peaceful break in the Combe de Gers, by the lake. With its abundant flora and fauna, this place is ideal for recharging your batteries. Mountain lake fishing enthusiasts can tease trout, while others relax on the terrace.
In the fall, the deer slab closes the summer season ...
