With 148 rooms and a restaurant featuring a panoramic terrace of over 800 square metres, Mama Shelter Val Thorens will be much more than just a hotel; it will be a warm, lively, and full-of-character high-altitude living space where skiers, families, and friends can gather to share unforgettable, fun, and authentic moments. Guests will be able to experience the mountains ‘Mama-style’, with relaxation and celebration.
After a day on the slopes, guests can head to the bar for a creative cocktail, visit the karaoke room to sing (loudly if not perfectly), or relax in the ‘Ski Lounge’ to catch up with friends. Teenagers have their own ‘Teen Room,’ and everyone can unwind in the spa, which features a sauna, hammam, treatment rooms, a fitness area, and an indoor pool with stunning mountain views.
The project is being developed with the support of a BREEAM consultancy and is targeting a ‘Very Good’ certification, underscoring its commitment to sustainable construction. In line with this, and among other initiatives, the project is aiming to valorise the majority of its construction waste, ensuring materials are reused, recycled, or recovered rather than sent to landfill, in accordance with BREEAM standards.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
