"In a magical setting on the banks of the lake in Champex-Lac, the first thing you’ll notice is the view of the imposing Mont Blanc mountain range. Warm, cozy lodgings — six rooms and two suites — make a perfect hideaway after a day in the mountains; the spa is just as small and exclusive, and in the Au 1465 restaurant (named after the village’s altitude) you can enjoy creative dishes made from organic local ingredients that are fresh, seasonal, and indulgent." - The MICHELIN Guide
"With a wealth of experience at MICHELIN-starred restaurants under his belt, Mariano Buda now heads up the kitchen here. Although his style of cooking has been aptly described as a modernised take on classic cuisine, he incorporates authentic traditional cooking techniques as well. A prime example of this is the impeccably crafted classic pâté served alongside tender poulard fillet. Last but not least, abundant flavour is also provided by carefully selected ingredients, most of which are sourced from the region. The well-curated wine list is presented to you on a tablet – Swiss and French labels are well represented. Incidentally, the name of this chic, modern restaurant is a reference to the altitude of the exclusive little hotel Au Club Alpin in which it is housed – with its breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains is truly delightful." - Michelin Inspector

"Long a waystation for hikers passing through the Swiss village of Champex-Lac, this alpinists’ club is now a proper boutique hotel, doing business under the eminently sensible name Au Club Alpin. The lakeside setting, at the foot of the Mont Blanc massif, is as magical as ever, while the six rooms and two suites combine sophisticated interior design with classic Alpine materials like fir and Simplon stone. The spa is an impressive one, especially given the hotel’s small scale, and the Restaurant Au 1465, named for the village’s elevation, serves a similarly elevated take on local, seasonal organic fare." - Tablet Hotels
