The wide range of facilities at Hotel Pashmina Le Refuge include:
New for 21/22 - thanks to European glass experts - Grolla Verre and Serrurerie Tissot - they have used glass with integrated nanotechnology to create a new 70m2 retractable veranda on the terrace with bay windows offering clear views of the surrounding mountains and slopes of Val Thorens. The new retractable glass veranda is heated using self-heating glass and power from electricity generated locally from dams in the region. The system allows a comfortable temperature for lunch or dinner to be maintained and can be set up in two minutes in case of bad weather or cold temperatures.
Accommodation at the Hotel Pashmina le Refuge comprises 43 rooms and suites (up to 82m2), 8 'Cosy Homes' (between 60 and 155m2), and 2 chalet apartments (130m2). Alternatively, experience a night close to the stars in the Igloo Pod, located on the rooftop.
