Read More About The Hotel

The chef at Restaurant Envergure at the Excelsior Hotel & Spa specialises in using local produce and creates wonderful homemade dishes, all enjoyed with excellent service and a most impressive panoramic view. There is also a wonderful sunny terrace to enjoy a drink when the sun is out. When you want to relax, after your day on the slopes, there is the spacious and comfortable Bar l'Aquila which serves wine, beer, spirits and a decent Irish Coffee.

The Pure Altitude Spa offers a sauna, jacuzzi and hammam. Please note there is a local charge (€20 per person for 1 hour) to use these facilities and you will need to make a reservation. You may also choose to indulge in one of the treatments, also payable locally to the spa.

There is a luggage store, and for the youngsters, there is a play room.

What We Love About The Excelsior Chamonix Hotel & Spa

The Excelsior is great for couples, small groups and families.
