Armancette: An Alpine Chalet Facing Mont Blanc

Armancette is a jewel-box of an alpine hotel, an intimate chalet at Saint-Gervais-les-Bains in the Pays du Mont-Blanc, its terraces gazing directly at the Dômes de Miage and the great white massif itself. Warm with wood and stone and wrapped around a spa, it is one of the coziest luxury bases in the French Alps.

The dining reaches high. La Table d'Armante holds a Michelin star, where chef Thomas Vonderscher re-imagines alpine flavours from carefully sourced local products before the Mont Blanc massif; the Bistrot le Mont Joly serves Savoyard and Italian dishes on a spectacular terrace; and a nearly-800-label wine bar and a tea room and bakery complete the offering.

For an intimate, gastronomic Mont Blanc stay, Armancette is a standout.
