Some categories have a balcony or terrace, and several overlook the valley or surrounding mountains. The family room stands out for its 22 m² of space, balcony and separate toilet. The triple room has a bathroom with a shower, but its toilet is in the corridor. The toilet for the Economy Double Room is also in the corridor. Rooms include bed linen; towels and a hairdryer are also available.

The restaurant and bar let you enjoy a meal or a drink on site. The offering also includes coffee, fruit, and wine or champagne. Children's menus are available, as are menus for certain dietary requirements on request. Outside, you'll find a garden, a sun terrace, outdoor furniture and a picnic area. These spaces are ideal for taking a break between mountain outings.

Ski-to-door access and ski storage are useful during the winter season. You can go skiing, hiking, cycling, canoeing, fishing and play table tennis; darts and a children's playground are also available. Free private parking is available on site by reservation only. Free Wi-Fi is available in some rooms. The hotel also offers a shuttle service and bicycle hire.

The hamlet of Chalvet is on the heights above Embrun, amid the mountain scenery of the Hautes-Alpes. The town combines an old centre, views over the Durance valley and a lifestyle shaped by outdoor activities. The shores of Lake Serre-Ponçon add a waterside feel to this alpine destination, which is popular both for active holidays and for stopovers in a small mountain town.

L’Estang Beach is 1.5 km away and offers a chance to enjoy the lake in fine weather. Embrun railway station, also 1.5 km away, connects the town to the regional rail network. In the centre, Notre-Dame-du-Réal Cathedral, 2.1 km away, overlooks the old streets; the Couvent des Cordeliers, 1.8 km away, also bears witness to local history. The Centre d’Interprétation de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine, 2 km away, offers a closer look at the development of the town and its surrounding area.

In summer, you can spend a day at the lake, then explore Embrun's streets or go hiking in the landscapes of Écrins National Park. Water sports and walks around the lake suit sunny days; the mountains offer cooler routes when temperatures rise. In winter, the hotel's ski-to-door access makes snow holidays easier. Spring and autumn are well suited to walks and discovering the valley's villages in a quieter atmosphere.
