Overview

An iconic landmark in Avoriaz, Hotel des Dromonts is renowned for its distinctive pinecone-inspired architecture and prime ski-in, ski-out location. Perched on the mountainside, this historic hotel combines striking design with panoramic alpine views and has welcomed notable guests over the years, adding to its unique character and prestige.

Inside, the hotel embraces its 1960s heritage with bold retro styling, featuring slate floors, designer furnishings and vibrant accents throughout. Comfortable lounges and cosy corners provide inviting spaces to relax, while the individually styled rooms continue the hotel's distinctive design aesthetic.

After a day on the slopes, guests can unwind in the outdoor hot tub and sauna or relax in the tranquil wellness area. Dining is equally impressive, with refined French cuisine served in the stylish Enfants Terribles restaurant, while the Festival restaurant offers a more relaxed atmosphere and traditional mountain specialities such as fondue. The hotel bar is the perfect spot to round off the evening, whether with a hot chocolate or a handcrafted cocktail.

About Avoriaz 1800

Avoriaz sits right in the centre of the vast 650km Portes du Soleil ski area, making it an outstanding base for exploring one of Europe’s biggest cross-border ski regions. Intermediates are especially well catered for, with an extensive network of high-altitude blue and red runs, all easily accessed ski-in ski-out from your accommodation. Confident skiers can venture further afield into Switzerland, while beginners can learn close to the resort in the dedicated nursery area before progressing onto gentle linked slopes down towards Morzine.

The resort itself is completely car-free and designed for skis and sledges rather than traffic, creating a unique, snow-filled atmosphere where you can literally ski through the streets. Its distinctive architecture, with tall wooden-clad buildings and slanted roofs, is designed to blend into the surrounding mountain landscape. Avoriaz is also known for its large number of self-catering apartments, making it particularly popular with families and groups looking for flexibility and convenience.

Away from skiing, Avoriaz offers some of the best off-slope activities in the French Alps. The Aquariaz water park brings a tropical twist to the mountains with lush vegetation, waterfalls and slides, while snowshoeing excursions offer a quieter way to explore the winter landscape. Many guided walks even finish with dinner in a traditional mountain hut, adding a memorable end to a day in the snow.
