Overview

The unique Art Hotel Grandes Murailles has a lovely location in the pretty village of Valtournenche. The hotel has a cosy alpine atmosphere, and we love its traditional Italian meets 'quirky-boutique' style.

The hotel is located in Valtournenche, a small resort 9kms from the centre of Cervinia. The resorts share a ski area so it is easy to get over to Cervinia or to Zermatt on your international lift pass. Getting onto the slopes is really easy, the resort bus stop is just 50 metres from the hotel.

There's a really cosy feel in the hotel with Alpine features and wood-panelled rooms. The bar area is an ideal spot to catch up with friends and family, enjoy an aperitivo before making your way to dinner where you'll enjoy a tasty three course meal. The hotel's restaurant 'Bistrot de l'Artiste' offers contemporary Italian cuisine and a nod to the typical flavours of the Aosta Valley.

About Cervinia

Based on the Italian side of the Matterhorn, Cervinia is lift-linked to Zermatt, with 200km of its own runs. Because of its high altitude, it has a long season, great snow and is an absolute haven for intermediates. The slopes are superb for cruising and mileage skiing, while beginners will find masses of coverage. Advanced skiers will need to head over into Switzerland for extended challenges.

Because of its position, the scenery is outstanding and the high altitude gives guaranteed snow from November to May. If the weather holds, you can usually be guaranteed loads of sun as well as long tree-lined runs.

Cervinia is not the most attractive resort and is entirely purpose-built. There are good restaurants on and off the mountain, and a lively apres ski scene in the two. Weekend crowds also improve the atmosphere...

At over 2000m in altitude, it's Italy's highest resort and biggest fully linked ski area. Forget Alpine charm, you come to Cervinia for the convenience and superb ski area!
