Superb location, friendly staff and exceptional food

Plain Ciel is in a fabulous location in the mountains with beautiful views. The quality of the food is excellent. Fresh baked bread and croissants for breakfast with homemade jams and dinner every night was outstanding with a varied set menu. The desserts were to die for.

Close to nature

The hotel is located in the heart of nature, surrounded by a beautiful view of the mountains and a "million-star" view of the sky. There is a nice terrace where you can enjoy the view during the day and look at the sky at night. The hotel is a bit old and has a musty smell, but many parts have been renovated, and it is overall well maintained. In the pictures, it looked better, but it was still clean with an amazing view from the balcony. The breakfast was simple but had everything you needed, it was good, and everything was fresh. The jams, juices, croissants, and bread were delicious. The dinner exceeded my expectations, the taste of the food was excellent! I suggest you book both, the breakfast and dinner as there is nowhere else to eat:) The staff was very nice and polite. One of the advantages of this hotel was the private sauna room, which could be reserved just for you, though you had to book it in advance at the reception. However, there were available time slots. There are several trails around, you can walk to the small artificial lake, which has a nice view. You can also hike up to Portes du Soleil, which was a very nice hike with breathtaking views and very few people.

An amazing location with outstanding views. Second to none. Staff were great. We arrived very late and missed the restaurant, but staff were able to provide bread, ham and cheese and two left over deserts despite the kitchen being shut. Would loved to have stayed longer than one night to enjoy the hotel and views. Also excellent beer!
