Zannier Le Chalet, Megève, France

Zannier Le Chalet is where refined simplicity meets the untouched beauty of Megève’s snow-capped peaks. It was this profound connection to place that inspired Arnaud Zannier to establish the very first property in what would become the signature collection of Zannier Hotels. 

Embraced by the chalet’s understated alpine elegance, guests enjoy exceptional moments of warmth and indulgence, particularly at La Ferme de Mon Père, where the essence of French terroir is artfully reinterpreted with the rhythm of the seasons. After days spent skiing or exploring the mountains, guests are invited to unwind in the serene embrace of the spa. Here, an indoor swimming pool, hammam, and sauna offer restorative calm, while treatments – crafted from the floral treasures of the Alps – enchant with their organic purity, captivating aromas, and natural efficacy.

The Zannier Le Chalet experience adapts beautifully with the seasons. In winter, a dedicated ski concierge ensures guests make the most of the 445 kilometres of groomed slopes, arranging daily ski passes, personal ski instructors, or even ski touring for the more adventurous. Other captivating winter pursuits include husky-sledding, snowshoeing, trekking through alpine forests, ice-skating, hot-air balloon rides, or reindeer feeding – a particular favourite among younger guests. The concierge and private chauffeur service can orchestrate almost any desire, from a private experience at Montenvers overlooking the Ice Sea to a cosy afternoon tea.

In summer, Megève reveals a gentler, more tranquil beauty – and Zannier Le Chalet gracefully transforms into an intimate retreat, offering bed and breakfast hospitality elevated by a discreet and attentive concierge team. The interiors maintain their pared-back elegance, and the atmosphere remains unhurried. This season invites guests to explore the extraordinary natural wilderness through hiking, climbing, walking, or paragliding, ensuring every moment of a summertime adventure in the French Alps is captured. 

Zannier Le Chalet stands out as a unique, luxurious alpine retreat for these reasons:

• Purity in design and materials: Its charming traditional alpine architecture houses interiors based on a minimalist philosophy with touches of simplicity. The design champions natural materials and the nobility lent by the passage of time; antique objects, traditional aged oak floors, ancient larch walls, old wood fittings, and sanded wood furniture polished with lime resin create a pure framework. Made-to-measure sofas and curtains, natural cottons, and washed linen seamlessly meld within this authentic setting, completed by solid furniture chosen for elegance and robustness.
• Individually unique accommodations: All 12 rooms and suites are individually unique, each featuring a private balcony or terrace with uninterrupted mountain views.

• Tailored experiences: Every day at Zannier Le Chalet is an experience in itself, with a highly attentive concierge team dedicated to crafting personalised moments, from bespoke wellness activities to ski safaris and private sommelier-led dinners. 

   

Zannier Le Chalet is perfectly suited for a discerning traveller aligned with the Zannier Hotels ethos: those who value a way of living free of pretension, appreciate simplicity and genuine luxury, cherish the combination of pure, natural, and imperfect materials in interior designs, and ultimately, seek enriching experiences and moments over ostentation.
