Hotel facts

Armancette Hotel, Chalets & Spa is located in Saint-Nicolas de Véroce, a traditional Savoyard village above Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, on the western edge of the Evasion Mont-Blanc ski area. The hotel sits at altitude, facing the Mont-Blanc massif, with open views towards the Dômes de Miage and Mont Joly. Geneva Airport is approximately one hour and fifteen minutes away by car, making Armancette one of the more easily reachable luxury mountain hotels in the French Alps.

The hotel enjoys direct ski access in winter, connecting guests to the wider Evasion Mont-Blanc domain, which includes Megève, Saint-Gervais and Les Contamines. In summer, the same setting provides immediate access to hiking trails, mountain biking routes and high-altitude nature experiences, with the Mont-Blanc landscape remaining the constant backdrop.

Accommodation

• Armancette offers a limited collection of individually designed rooms and suites, spread across the main hotel building and complemented by a number of private chalets nearby. The rooms are intentionally varied in layout and size, reinforcing the boutique character of the property rather than a uniform hotel feel.

• Interiors are rooted in alpine materials and craftsmanship, with extensive use of light oak, weathered wood, parquet flooring and natural fabrics. Leather details, velvet accents and bespoke curtains made by local artisans add warmth without excess. Italian design influences are subtly present in the furniture and lighting, creating a contemporary yet timeless atmosphere.

• Room categories range from elegant double rooms to spacious suites suitable for families. Several rooms and suites feature balconies or terraces with mountain views, while others overlook the village or surrounding alpine landscape. Modern comforts include high-quality bedding, flat-screen televisions with video on demand, Bluetooth sound systems, minibars and complimentary Wi-Fi. Bathrooms are finished in natural stone and wood, with walk-in showers and, in selected categories, bathtubs.

Chalets

• In addition to the hotel rooms and suites, Armancette offers a small selection of private chalets positioned close to the main property. These chalets provide increased privacy and space, making them particularly suitable for families or groups travelling together. Guests staying in the chalets benefit from access to the hotel’s spa, restaurants and concierge services, combining independence with the convenience of full hotel facilities.

Dining

• Dining at Armancette is firmly rooted in regional identity and seasonality. The hotel’s flagship restaurant, La Table d’Armante, focuses on refined alpine cuisine, with menus developed around local produce and traditional flavours interpreted in a contemporary way. The restaurant’s setting, with large windows facing the Mont-Blanc massif, plays a central role in the experience, especially during winter evenings and summer sunsets.

• For a more relaxed atmosphere, Mont Joly Bistrot offers a casual dining option with alpine classics and generous dishes, ideal for lunch or an informal dinner. The bistro’s terrace is particularly popular on sunny days, offering panoramic mountain views.

• Armancette also features a tea room and bakery, located in what was once the village bakery. Here, guests can enjoy freshly baked bread, pastries and light snacks throughout the day. A dedicated wine bar completes the culinary offering, with a carefully curated selection of French and international wines.

Spa and Wellness

• The Armancette Spa is one of the hotel’s defining features and is designed as a place of calm, light and connection to the surrounding landscape. The spa includes an indoor-outdoor heated swimming pool, allowing guests to swim while taking in mountain views, regardless of the season.

• Wellness facilities include a sauna, hammam, solarium, indoor relaxation areas and several outdoor jacuzzis positioned to maximise the alpine panorama. Treatment rooms are available for massages and personalised wellness treatments, using carefully selected products inspired by natural ingredients.

• A fully equipped fitness room with Technogym equipment is accessible to guests, and private coaching sessions can be arranged on request. The spa is open year-round and is an integral part of the Armancette experience rather than an add-on.

Services and Facilities

• Armancette offers a full range of five-star services while maintaining an understated, personal approach. Facilities include a ski room with heated lockers, underground parking with electric vehicle charging points, concierge service, babysitting on request and a kids’ club during selected holiday periods.

• The concierge team assists with ski passes, equipment rental, private transfers, mountain guides and seasonal activities such as snowshoeing, sledging, hiking or e-biking, depending on the time of year. Seasons and Accessibility

• Armancette operates as a year-round destination. In winter, guests enjoy direct access to one of the largest ski areas in the Alps, while summer brings a quieter, nature-focused atmosphere with extensive outdoor activities. The hotel’s location above Saint-Gervais allows guests to combine mountain tranquillity with easy access to shops, thermal baths and transport connections in the valley below.
