Le Chalet, Lech

Description

Le Chalet really is ‘The’ Chalet. This luxury ski property in Oberlech is something rather special, offering all the facilities of a high-end boutique hotel, along with the privacy and quiet of a private chalet.

Natural materials, such as wood and stone, are used throughout for a relaxed feel, while outstanding mountain views help bring nature right into Le Chalet. Those views really are all the artwork you need, but the interiors have been thoughtfully designed to incorporate sumptuous furnishings, beautiful colours and all the tech you could wish for, from Revox sound system to iPad controllable lighting. The entire upper floor is given over to relaxing and dining with loved ones, with a contemporary dining area, blessed with comfortable seating for long, leisurely meals, and a sociable living space with curved sofas and cosy armchairs, just made for catching up with friends after a day on the slopes. A bar is always open for drinks, and the fire is always roaring, waiting to welcome you in from the snow.

The home fires are kept burning outdoors, too, with the well-designed terrace also boasting its own open fireplace, as well as outdoor living and dining spaces and that magnificent mountain view.

On snowy afternoons, there’s plenty to keep you busy at Le Chalet, Lech, from a movie in the separate luxurious TV room with bar, to a few hours spent in the large spa area, which includes swimming pool with whirlpool loungers, sauna, Hammam, infra-red cabin and relaxation space.

With a flight of staff, all prepped to take care of your every whim, you should never have to lift a finger. To ensure you return home completely rested, the seven luxury bedrooms are all designed to complete your total relaxation. All have mini bars and Nespresso machines for your morning coffee, as well as balcony or garden access so you can enjoy your first caffeine hit of the day in the mountain air. Three of the suites even have their own open fireplaces.

It’s hard to imagine anywhere cosier to lay your head, and hard to believe there’s anywhere you’d rather stay than Le Chalet.

Good food and fine wines are a cornerstone of life at Le Chalet, Lech. A team of professional staff work away in the background, pampering you with delicious food and drink.

Each morning an a la carte breakfast, including regional specialities, is served to slowly welcome you to your day. Afternoon tea is ready and waiting for you when you return from the slopes, and your private chef will cook up a storm in the evenings, whether you want 8-course gala dinners or comfort food on the sofa. In fact, your every wish is your staff’s command, from hearty weekend brunches to late-night snacks.

The bar has a round-the-clock bar tender, and you can be sure your drink will always be topped up, from the Champagne reception on your first night, to nightcaps when you all roll in from a night out in Oberlech’s lively bars.

Kids of all ages will enjoy splashing in Le Chalet’s beautiful indoor swimming pool. Or, if they’re tired after ski school, they could simply cuddle up in the separate TV room with blankets and popcorn and watch a movie matinee.

The chalet staff are on hand to help with anything you need, from booking ski schools to arranging horse-drawn sleigh rides, and nannies and babysitters can be booked on request too.
