Full accommodation information
Hotel information
This magnificent chalet, built of local stone and reclaimed timber sits proudly above the Isere River Gorge, and at the base of the blue Mangard piste, allowing you to ski directly back to your chalet.
Located in the exclusive area of Le Fornet in Val d’Isere, the five-bedroom Chalet Rive Gauche is only a four-minute walk to the nearest ski-lifts and just a three-minute chauffeured drive to the resort centre.
The accommodation allows for flexibility with one king room, three rooms that can be configured with twin beds or kings and one bunk room suitable for two adults or children. The chalet is split across four levels which includes an impressive living and dining area with west facing double height floor-to-ceiling windows, benefiting from the late afternoon sunlight. On the lower level a Hammam steam room and stylish indoor swimming pool can be found.
Chalet Rive Gauche comes complete with a professional chef and experienced host who will offer concierge services such as booking ski tuition, ski equipment and guides and offer personal recommendations of local restaurants and bars for you to explore. The chalet also includes the use of a 4x4 chauffeured vehicle to transport you to the resort of Le Fornet.
For larger groups Chalet Rive Gauche can be combined with sister property, the five-bedroom Chalet Vieux Pont.
