Grand Hotel Courmayeur Montblanc by R Collection Hotels  

At the foot of Mont Blanc in Courmayeur, this modern alpine hotel sits about 500 metres from the town centre and within easy walking distance of the Dolonne Gondola, Courmayeur Ropeway and Parco Avventura Mont Blanc. Ski lifts and mountain trails are right nearby, with a complimentary ski shuttle to get you on the slopes fast.

Seventy-two soundproofed rooms, junior suites and suites marry modern Alpine style with panoramic Mont Blanc views — many with large terraces in summer. Rooms feature minibars, flat-screen TVs, desks and en suite bathrooms with complimentary toiletries, hairdryers and bathrobes.

A full wellness area includes an indoor pool, sauna, steam/Turkish bath, Scottish and aroma showers, an emotional tunnel and bookable massages, plus a Technogym-equipped fitness room. Onsite ski services include equipment rental, ski storage and ski passes; there's also a garden, cigar/smoking room, bar lounge and paid parking.

A business centre and laptop-friendly desks in rooms keep work simple, while complimentary Wi‑Fi/high-speed internet and 24-hour front desk services support meetings and travel needs.

The hotel restaurant focuses on refined Italian and regional cuisine with attention to local produce and wines, and a daily buffet breakfast gets the day started. Equinox Lounge Bar serves cocktails and drinks, and room service is available during limited hours.
