Chalet Hotel Sylvana

The Chalet Hotel Sylvana in Megeve is situated only 150 metres from the Rochebrune cable car and about 5 minutes from the village centre. It combines the friendliness of a chalet with some of the benefits that you would only find in a hotel.

The 15 bedrooms are comfortable, simple and homely, decorated in a traditional Savoyard style. Each bedroom has an en-suite bath or shower room. Downstairs you can relax in front of the log fire in the attractive and spacious sitting room and enjoy pre-dinner drinks and appetisers at the bar.

The resident professional chef will spoil you daily with a hearty breakfast of croissants, porridge, eggs, fresh fruit, yoghurts and pain au chocolat plus a 3 course evening meal cooked to a high standard on 6 evenings. Relax with a pre-dinner drink taken around the blazing open fireplace in the lounge and join the other guests at the chalet for a sociable evening ahead. There is a small TV room downstairs, equipped with English satellite TV (free-view channels), video player and board games. A perfect space for the children.

Guests are invited to join for free membership to the Unthank Ski Club. Enjoy social skiing in groups of like-minded skiers (there is a fast, medium and relaxed group) on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. All groups meet back for lunch so that guests of differing abilities can reunite for a social lunch. The groups are led by volunteers (often your chalet staff) but as they are not professionals you are responsible for your own skiing and general safety. Club members meet outside the Caboche lift by the Terrasse de Mas restaurant at 10am and are usually finished by 12 noon.

At the end of the day you can ski back to the chalet hotel (snow conditions permitting).
