Hotel Castor, Champoluc

As soon as you walk into the Hotel Castor you'll get a warm, family welcome. The Castor's have been running the hotel for four generations and greet each guest as though they know them. It's ideally located in the historic centre of Champoluc - you'll reach the main Crest gondola in five minutes or so on foot.

There's a really nice cosy and comfortable ambiance throughout the hotel. You could spend hours relaxing, reading, drinking and socialising in the lounge bar. Once a week there's live music here and the place really comes alive. When it comes to dinner, you will be well fueled for your week in the mountains. Enjoy a hearty Italian, four-course meal in the authentic mountain setting of the hotel restaurant.

The Castor family provide a homely base for your winter holiday, as well as some extras that make for fantastic, memorable experiences; from exploring the back-country with a professional alpine guide, yoga and pilates courses to local wine tasting (all payable locally).

Meals

Start your day well with a full buffet breakfast, served between 7.30am and 10am. You'll have a wide selection pastries, cheeses, cereals and fruit to choose from. If you've still got space, a cooked breakfast is available on request. If you're leaving early a self-service breakfast will be available for you and if you fancy a lie in cake and cappuccino can be served in the bar after 10am.

In the afternoon, come back from the slopes and there will be tea and homemade cake waiting for you between 5pm and 6pm.

Dinner in the authentic mountain style restaurant, complete with arch ceilings and original paintings and carvings by local artists, is a real treat after a long day out on the mountains. Enjoy a four course meal here starting with a grand buffet of antipasto, three choices of first and second course and if you have any room left there's the delicious home made desserts. There is also an à la carte menu that you can choose from, at a supplement. Live music once a week after dinner.

With over 160 Italian national and local Valdostanan wine labels to choose from, we're sure you'll find something you'll love. The staff here would be more than happy to make recommendations.

If your staying over Christmas or New Year, Gala dinners are included.
