Why we chose it

The combination of ski-in/ski-out access with a heated swimming pool sets Chalet Ascension apart from most alpine properties, where guests typically choose between convenience and aquatic luxury. The chalet's spa level creates a genuine wellness retreat with sauna, steam room, pool and massage facilities rarely found together in ski properties at this altitude. Unlike many chalets that compromise on space for large groups, Ascension's 411 square metres and thoughtful layout with elevator access ensures comfort rather than cramped quarters. The property's position in Moriond provides authentic village character whilst maintaining direct slope access, a combination that elevates it above properties that prioritise either location or ski convenience but rarely both seamlessly.
