Highlights

- Completely refurbished
Reopened summer 2017, the hotel has been lovingly and stylishly transformed from a mountain refuge into a cosy, comfortable hotel providing all modern amenities, whilst retaining all its authenticity, with its austere granite exterior, its rustic alpine décor and its mountain atmosphere.
The Refuge du Montenvers is offered on a B&B. Breakfast-wise, you can stock up on energy with a selection of regional produce: local cheeses and ham plus pastries, cereals and fresh fruits served with a tasty hot chocolate to get the day off to a gentle start.
For lunch and dinner, book at the 'Restaurant du Montenvers' which offers you mountain cuisine, honouring the local produce in harmony with the seasons. Enjoy lunch on the sunny terrace facing the Dru peaks or inside cozy and warm in the dining room, with cuisine of authentic flavors made magical by the mountain setting.
You can also stop at the 'Bar des Glaciers' coffee shop. At any time of the day, let yourself be tempted by the sandwiches while reliving the highlights of your excursion or try othe quiche of the day while waiting for the famous red train.
