Overview: hotel description: Araucaria Hotel & Spa (Plagne Centre) description

The Araucaria Hotel & Spa is exceptionally well located at the bottom of the slalom run in Plagne Centre and is the sister hotel to the Heliopic Hotel in Chamonix. With a great range of facilities including a bar, spa and restaurant - this is a great choice for friends and family travelling to France this winter.

Great location

Soothing spa and bar

If you want a day off of skiing or fancy relaxing after a day on the mountain, there is a lovely wellness and pool area you can make the most of. Have a dip in the pool, and then head to the sauna or hammam to sooth any aches and pains. There is also an ice cave so you can chill out while toning up. For the ultimate treat book a massage or treatment with the NUXE spa therapists.

The hotel bar and lounge is a great spot to catch up with friends and family with a handcrafted cocktail. There is a games corner with colouring for the children and a foosball table for the grown ups, plus there is live music throughout the season.

Food and drink

Enjoy buffet style meals overlooking the nearby slalom track. Each day you canfuel up at the breakfast buffet with a range of sweet and savoury options, and when you return from a day on the slopes a varied evening meal is available. There are themed market stall style stations where there is bound to be something for everyone.
