Altapura, a brand new hotel concept of 88 bedrooms and set back from the lively centre of the resort, opens its doors for a “ski-in, ski-out” experience in exceptional scenery. A true emblematical monument to rival the glaciers…but closer to the sun! It is “an iceberg with an intense heart”.
In perfect harmony with today’s environmental expectations, the building is cosseted in a blanket of solar panels. The elegant and generous volumes hark back to the panache of the grand hotels, while the Nordic ambiance shows off the noble nature of the wood and stone work. Altapura flaunts its style, playing with contrasts in a dynamic, festive, convivial and cosmopolitan ambiance.
Altapura's magic also lies in its decision to include new technologies in the heart of its upscale world. From interactive touch screens to iPhone/iPod docking stations and the Mac Mini in rooms, you can find or experiment with all the possibility offered by these high-tech terminals to access or exchange information. You can swap pictures or videos of your exploits on a big screen, programme the DJ on the terrace, see the mouth-watering Enfants Terribles-Val Thorens menu on screen, etc.

ROOMS
The 88 rooms and suites of the 5-star Hotel Altapura open their doors to a universe of comfort, light and well-being. They are true havens of comfort, modernity and harmony with guests choosing from five categories of room. All rooms have been specifically designed to the needs of skiers, without having to renounce elegance or refinement, to give an unforgettable stay surrounded by exceptional snow conditions. The Nordic themed walls, the warm mix of woods and the soft fabrics in refreshing red tones all blend seamlessly with the cosy bed. The mineral stone which reigns in the bathrooms constitutes the final essential element in creating an atmosphere of mountain décor.
