Hotels on the ski slopes

You like oriental style with Japanese influences or maybe you prefer a zero carbon hotel or a lodge in Québec. Luxe-magazine.com has tested for you some great hideaways for the winter season.


Matzuzaka: a complete change of scenery

In La Rosière, in a warm and friendly chalet close to the ski slopes, this inspiration hotel with a mix of Savoyard and Japanese influences features 10 rooms with different atmospheres: 2 Japanese-style rooms, 5 Savoyard-style rooms and 3 suites with bubble bath and lounge. We love the "rotemburo" – the Japanese hot tub outdoor-, the "ofuro" – the warm bath indoor - and classic, but not less relaxing, the sauna, as well as the à la carte beauty treatments and massages. The restaurant at chalet Matzuzaka offers an interesting menu using fresh local produce accompanied by the best French wines.
