Uniqueness
Snow-capped Aravis peaks fill the panoramic bay windows. Au Cœur du Village sits in the centre of La Clusaz, steps from the ski lifts, the only five-star Relais & Châteaux in this Savoyard village. Two restaurants share the roof. Le Cin5 holds a Michelin star. Le Coeur serves gourmet mountain fare. Chalet Le Coeur, a private adjoining chalet, adds seclusion for those who want it.
Good citizenship is part of the hotel's DNA. The Aravis is not a backdrop here but a responsibility. Accessibility runs deep too, with treatment rooms and the entire wellness floor open to guests with reduced mobility. Every detail feels rooted in this specific village, this specific mountain range.

Ski storage sits on-site, and the slopes start at the doorstep. Winter in La Clusaz means more than skiing and snowboarding. Guests hurtle down on a megasled, a paret (the local toboggan), or a yooner. Headlamp snowshoe hikes end with dinner in a mountain hut. Tipi evenings bring firelight to the snow. The only bowling alley in the Aravis stands steps from the hotel. Team-building sessions run through qualified local providers who tailor each programme. Le Grand-Bornand, the neighbouring resort, extends the range of alpine pursuits across the valley.

Gastronomy
Le Cin5 holds one Michelin star and anchors the hotel's identity. A dedicated network of named local suppliers feeds the kitchen. Each producer appears on the restaurant's own suppliers page, tying every plate to the Aravis valley. The sourcing is not an afterthought. It shapes what arrives at the table.
Le Coeur, the hotel's second restaurant, takes a gourmet approach to mountain cooking. Le Bar rounds out the evening. Dinner gift boxes let guests carry something of Le Cin5 home. Reservations run through Zenchef, keeping the booking direct and personal.

Wellness
The Cristal Spa faces the Aravis through floor-to-ceiling bay windows. A heated relaxation pool sits at 30 degrees Celsius with a bubble bath, counter-current swimming jet, swan necks, and hydrojets for leg massage. Snow-capped peaks fill the glass while the water works.
A star cave hammam and sauna deepen the heat circuit. Multiple treatment rooms line the spa floor, including one fully adapted for guests with reduced mobility. A small fitness room completes the space. The entire wellness area is wheelchair accessible, a commitment the hotel calls part of its DNA.
