About Hotel Neige et Roc

Those seeking a traditional Alpine Hotel in a peaceful setting with a number of facilities to enjoy and friendly service will love the Hotel Neige et Roc.

When you step into the hotel, you'll feel right at home. The furnishings are typical of a cosy Alpine lodge and the family who have been running the hotel for 30 years are incredibly hospitable and take great pride in their service. They're always on hand to help with a friendly smile and they make every guest feel like they’re being welcomed home. 

The Hotel Neige et Roc has a lovely outdoor pool that’s perfect for a refreshing dip. During warmer days you can unwind on the comfy sun loungers – ideal for sun seekers and book readers.

The windows surrounding the indoor pool as well as the jets mean you get to relax whilst taking in the surrounding scenery.

Is there anything more perfect than sipping an aperitif next to the outdoor pool? We don’t think so and are sure you’ll love the outdoor terrace, it’s perfect for unwinding with a drink from the bar. The food at the Neige et Roc is tasty with hearty dishes to tuck into.

Discover Samoens

  • This peaceful village location is the perfect retreat for those wanting an active holiday
  • Enjoy venturing to local waterfalls, gorges and mountain valleys
  • Head to nearby nature parks for plenty of walking and spectacular scenery

The seven mountains that lend Samoëns its name have helped shelter the village so that, despite its popularity with hikers, cyclists and skiers, its character has remained charmingly in-tact. After all, this isn’t any old village – Samoëns is a national monument and the home of the Mourmé stonemasons. Walking holidays to Samoëns head out into the Haute-Savoie region, where both family-friendly hikes and long-distance trails explore in the shadow of some of the biggest mountains in Europe - on selected walking routes you may even catch a glimpse of the Mont Blanc.

Things to do in Samoens

A lazy day by the lake is always called for and Samoëns lake is small but beautifully turquoise and is only a short walk from the main centre. The lake is separated into three sections with one section dedicated to swimming. Here you’ll find locals paddling (and paddle boarding) in the water or lounging on the lakes edge – it’s great for those wanting a short, flat walk around the lake or wanting to cool off in the blue waters.

The Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval Nature Reserve is a hidden gem in the Alps. During peak times you can catch the bus here otherwise you may need to get a taxi but there are an abundance of walks to try once you arrive. You can stick to valley-level walks for those wanting more gentle terrain but there are also challenging hikes for those up to the task. Hike to “Bout de Monde”, in English, “the end of the world” for incredible scenery with dramatic peaks and plenty of waterfalls cascading through the rocks.

With Samoën sitting at a lower altitude compared to other resorts in the Alps it has an array of beautiful waterfalls to explore. You usually see them from May to September but if you want to experience them at their best then June is often the best time to travel. That said, July is still impressive.

The Alpine Botanical Garden Jaysinia is in easy reach of Samoëns centre and is a treat for plant and flower lovers. There are around 2400 species of plants and nearly 3 kilometres of paths to wander so if you’re just looking to enjoy the scenery or take a leisurely stroll it’s the perfect setting.

The image is of a bridge on one of the lakes near Samoëns, about 20 minutes walk from the botanic gardens.

E-biking is a great way to get around the local area, the flatter valleys make it easy to explore but if you do want to tackle the mountains then use the power to get you up there. Explore nearby villages and stop off at the local Boulangeries for a treat (or two), there’s also some waterfalls in the area that are well worth seeing. E-bikes can be hired in town and are bookable and payable locally.
