Hotellerie De Mascognaz

The property boasts a well-equipped spa and friendly staff, while offering a stunning location and well-furnished rooms. However, some guests found the breakfast options limited and repetitive.

Fantastic stay at Hotellerie de Mascognaz! The family of 4 stayed here on Feb 8-15 2025 and we were blown away by the tranquility of this beautiful ”village” up the mountain. The morning and afternoon rides to Champoluc by snow-mobile put a perfect frame around each day’s skiing. We enjoyed the spa with sauna and Hammam each early evening as we prepared for dinner. Food was excellent (we stayed with half-board) and throughout the week we were offered new dishes on the menu with 3 different selections of antipasti, primi, secondi and dolce. Good wine list. Very friendly staff and we were very well taken care of. My wife and I will definitely come back again.

We have been coming to Champoluc for 20 years, and wanted to try this resort given its reputation. Lets start with the positive - this is a beautifully restored hamlet, and our chalet was spacious and beautifully appointed (which you would expect at this price point) We had a few minor negatives during our stay: - whilst the restaurant staff were all very friendly, food was very variable - some dishes were truly excellent, others were laughably bad. Everything is very rich. Breakfasts were tasty but limited. Bar prices are excessive - way higher than anywhere else in town, and drinks are average at best. They serve filtered tap water at dinner and have the cheek to charge you as if you are drinking San Pelligrino! - The spa is a decent facility, let down by the staff, who dont enforce the 'adults only' hours (and dont care when you point this out them). The spa is also a 15 minute walk from the main village, along an exposed pathway, so not exactly a relaxing place to go. And we had some MAJOR negatives: - transportation to the main town is via skidoo and minibus - more than once we were waiting 45 minutes in town to be collected, which becomes very dull after the initial novelty. Apparently they are struggling to find drivers, but when you point out the issue to management they dont seem to think it is an issue(!) - the skidoos themselves are a major health and safety issue. You sit in a four person 'chariot' attached to the back of the skidoo, and ours became detached when the skidoo hit a bump on the track, causing the chariot to crash into the skidoo, leaving us shaken and with minor bruising. Luckily this happened on the flat path - had it happened on the steep mountain path it would have potentially been fatal. Again on reporting this to management we got little more than a shoulder shrug. We checked out early because of this, and I would urge anyone using this transport to be very cautious. The resort's biggest issue appears to be new management, who arrived recently from Germany - they completely lack the ability to run a resort of this class and are ruining it as a result - you can sense the tension among the longer-serving staff. We will not be returning - there are fabulous hotels in the village that do so much more to deserve our custom.
