Cordée des Alpes – Verbier, Switzerland
In the ever so glamorous resort of Verbier, the Cordée des Alpes shines out with its traditional Swiss chalet frontage and cool, contemporary interior. Old wooden panels and beams, granite and marble walls, it’s homely and sophisticatedly furnished – it really is one of our favourites! Both the food and the service here are exemplary, seeing guests and their families book year on year. We love the friendly vibe and best of all, it’s right in the heart of the village.
The hotel’s shuttle will take you to the Médran lift each morning and pick you up at the end of the day, and the resort’s shops, bars and restaurants are just a short walk away.

food
We think the breakfasts at Cordée des Alpes are some of the best we’ve had, and they’ll certainly get you through until lunchtime. Restaurant La Cordée is only open for dinner, however the menu is exceptional. With the focus most definitely on local and regional produce, it’s based on traditional French cooking, but with a very modern take. The fish courses are especially good. Book in advance for the chef’s table (maximum five people), where you’ll experience life in the kitchen.
activities
The Spa at Cordée is simply enormous and very luxurious – you won’t be able to stay there without at least one visit. You’ll find a fifteen metre pool, open wood burning fireplace, Jacuzzi with views of the mountains, hammam, fitness room and a good list of treatments. The hotel has a shuttle bus for taking guests to the ski lifts and back, saving you the walk, and you can get your lift passes from the front desk.

Summer
Pure energy pulses through the magical mountains of Verbier in summer. Delicately perched at one thousand five hundred metres on a sunny plateau, you can enjoy breath-taking views of the glorious Massif des Combins. Wander the classically alpine village of slate-roofed chalets, or venture into the magnificent surroundings. Explorers are spoilt for choice, with over five hundred kilometres of hiking trails and over eight hundred kilometres of biking trails, complete with everything from daring descents to relaxing picnic spots.
In this special region, there are tons of other remarkable activities on offer. The unique Alaïa Bay houses a surf wave basin for beginners to experts, whilst the Esserts Golf Course has one of the most impressive backdrops in the world. For true thrill-seekers, the Mont-Fort zipline has no substitute, travelling over one kilometre at over one hundred kilometres per hour!
