Hotel description
Who wouldn’t want to go on a vacation to France that would be fit for the “Sun King” himself? Take a trip to the 4 star castle hotel Chateau des Avenieres in the western Alps and discover the romantic and historic atmosphere that is second to none, and ideal for a honeymoon in France!
The Chateau des Avenieres
The castle hotel Chateau des Avenieres is found in the western Alps, only a few kilometers from the Swiss border and about 50 km from the border to Italy. Here on the eastern edge of France, about halfway between Annecy and Geneva, a majestic castle stands, like in a fairy tale. The romantic 4 star hotel rises up, looking out over its castle garden, and will entice you with its interior filled with expensive fabrics, majestic wooden doors, elegant stairways and antique furnishings. Fitting for a castle, you will enjoy the luxurious aristocratic lifestyle in the Chateau des Avenieres. The excellent hotel service will make sure of that. Since there are only 12 rooms in the castle hotel, individual 4 star service is guaranteed.
The Story Behind the Castle
The Chateau des Avenieres was built by Mary Wallace Schillito, an American born in 1876 in Ohio. She built the castle to honor her sister, with whom she had lived in Paris for many years until she died unexpectedly. The architecture was influenced largely by Assan Faride Dina, Mary’s first husband. The chapel in particular is a fascinating architectural masterpiece, in which Dina attempted to combine elements out of all the universalistic religions, mixing Egyptian Tarot with Jewish Kabbalah and the Zodiac.
The Rooms of the Castle Hotel
The rooms of the castle hotel Chateau des Avenieres each have their own individual character. The decoration, layout, furnishings – it all gives the rooms an unmistakable ambience. The rooms’ names may hint at some of the design ideas. The room “Afrique” is dominated by African elements, as you might expect, and in the “Blue Room” blue tones are the definite theme. The room “Ducs”, meaning Duke, will make you feel like one!
Wellness and Fitness in the Castle
The castle hotel Chateau des Avenieres has a beautiful ornamental pool right below the hotel and a quaint relaxing area, which includes a fitness room, a sauna, a steam bath and massage rooms.
