ARMANCETTE HOTEL, CHALETS & SPA
History & Story
Our owner has spent his holidays in the village since he is a child. he wanted to create a place for tourists but also for people living here.
He has decided to create a 5-star hotel, 3 ski-in/ski-out chalets to discover Saint-Nicolas and enjoy the way of life that we have here, a quiet and nice area located in the Mont-Blanc area, closed to everything.
Date Renewal
Opened on the 1st of July 2019. The architect Gilles Grandjacques is local and the interior decoration company, Megève Design, also local.
Date added extensions
Since June 2021, we have opened a new restaurant called le Bistrot le Mont Joly. Located a few steps from the hotel L’Armancette*****, it is the perfect place to sit down with family and friends and enjoy traditional, home-style cooking with alpine flavors. On the 1st floor, the Mont Joly has a large lounge with a pool table, fireplace and a terrace which offers a breathtaking view of the Dômes de Miage.
Main Strengths, Special Touch
All rooms have a unique decoration. The Hotel is at the place of the bakery which closed 3 years ago. We kept a bakery in the hotel, and create a Tea Room open to everyone with homemade products. Our indoor garage is decorated by 2 Street Art Artists.
