A unique mountain refuge in the heart of the Alps
Ski-in ski-out hotel in Saint-Gervais - Megève to experience the mountains differently

The Refuge Chez La Tante - Mont d'Arbois is not a hotel like the others: it is a suspended interlude between sky and peaks, a confidential place where you can rediscover the mountain in its purest state. Accessible only by cable car or ski and open in winter and summer, it offers its guests the invaluable privilege of sleeping where the slopes end, and waking up alone, facing the immensity.

When the last skier comes back down, the mountain regains its calm. Silence sets in, the light changes, and the Refuge becomes your world. Here, the experience is total: sharing a drink by the fire, admiring the ballet of the stars through the large windows, or simply feeling the luxury of time slowing down.

Staying at the Refuge Chez La Tante - Mont d'Arbois means accepting a rare disconnection, far from the hustle and bustle of the valleys, in a cozy atmosphere where sincere hospitality and discreet refinement meet to create unforgettable memories.

With only twenty rooms, the Refuge Chez La Tante - Mont d'Arbois has chosen privacy and personalization. Here, each room has been designed as a cocoon, where noble materials, light tones and light effects create a warm and soothing atmosphere.

From the window or the balcony, the mountain invites itself like a living picture: snowy peaks, a flamboyant sunrise, or the pristine calm of the slopes that are still asleep. Modern comfort blends with Alpine charm to offer an ideal setting for rest and rejuvenation.


In the morning, you have the ultimate privilege: put on your skis and trace the first curves on virgin snow, long before the resort awakens. A rare, almost secret moment that makes each stay an unforgettable experience.

Chez la Tante, a mountain restaurant in Saint-Gervais
Friendly cooking over a wood fire, between tradition and sharing

At the heart of the Refuge, Chez La Tante serves generous, comforting food, perfect after a few hours on the slopes. Seasonal recipes, Alpine flavours and dishes made for sharing set the tone: this is a place to gather around the table and take your time.

At lunchtime, skiers and walkers stop for a break overlooking the snow-covered peaks. On sunny days, the terrace is the perfect spot to enjoy the sunshine and the view. Inside, the atmosphere is cosier, with a crackling fireplace and the warmth of the Refuge.

In the evening, once the slopes have emptied, calm gradually settles over the mountain. Chez La Tante then becomes the place for Refuge guests to round off the day with a warm dinner in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Chez La Tante is, quite simply, everything we love about winter in the mountains: good food, a table to gather around, snow just outside the windows, and the pleasure of staying a little longer.
