Unusual chalets in Commeire (Valais)
Presentation
Practical information
Return to basics, share positive emotions in a natural and authentic environment in Valais: between luxury and traditions in the hamlet of Commeire
In Switzerland, above Orsières, the hamlet of Commeire seems unchanged for 100 years. Here, the calm is absolute, and the mountain beauty is breathtaking.
This small hamlet perched at 1400 m altitude is being revived thanks to an innovative approach to tourism developed by Montagne Alternative. Their charter expresses it as follows: contributing to a better world by fostering the reconnection of their guests with the essentials, calm, and nature.
In 2002, Ludovic Orts, one of the two founders and partners of Montagne Alternative, discovered Commeire during a ski tour and fell in love instantly. It took time, reflection, and the agreement of the village residents to see this hamlet preservation project come to fruition.
These mazots, century-old barns, gradually abandoned, were reimagined by Ludovic Orts and Benoît Greindl as contemporary and timeless living spaces in the heart of a preserved hamlet.
The interior design is minimalist, refined, and a blend of new and old wood reclaimed locally. The materials are exquisite, your comfort is a priority, the lighting is meticulous, and above all, the windows frame the mountains.
Here, you will find neither shops nor restaurants, just silence and nature: ski touring, snowshoeing, cycling – activities that harmonize with the environment and local traditions.
The hospitality is personalized, the hotel services (transfers, grocery delivery, private chef, etc.) are à la carte; everything here is absolutely perfect.
✯ Spring, summer, autumn, winter, the hamlet is open all year round, 1 hour from Lausanne ✯
