"When Val Thorens, in the French Alps, calls itself “the roof of Europe,” it’s a reference to the fact that it’s the highest-elevation ski resort on the continent. But it’s not just the altitude that makes it special — it’s part of Les Trois Vallées, which means access to what might be the most abundant wealth of ski slopes in the world. Hotel Pashmina Le Refuge sounds like just the sort of place you’d like to wrap yourself up in at the end of a day on the valleys’ mountainsides, and upon further inspection, it turns out it’s aptly named indeed." - Tablet Hotels
