The hotel at a glance.
Daria-I Nor takes its name from a pale pink diamond whose Persian name means 'sea of light'. The hotel stands at 1860 metres in Alpe d'Huez, in the Grandes Rousses massif, with a direct link to the ski domain and a view of the Parc National des Ecrins that the Michelin Guide rates three stars.
Why it stands out
- Direct link to a 10,000-hectare ski area with 250 km of slopes
- Spa with pool, hammam, ice fountain and salt wall
- Two restaurants, led by chefs Oscar Marchand and Antoine Estrada
- Every room has a private balcony
A House Shaped by a Pink Diamond
The diamond behind the name is known for its distinctive pale pink hue, and its history informs both the decoration and the architecture. The interiors mix styles in warm, cocooning tones intended to blend with the Grandes Rousses surroundings. In La Table du Daria, a custom-made wine cellar is worked into the décor rather than set apart from it. The hotel belongs to Les Etincelles, a collection of hotels, residences and chalets.
A 10,000-Hectare Ski Domain
A south-facing terrace looks out over the ski domain, which spans 10,000 hectares and 250 kilometres of slopes. The kindergarten and beginners' ski area are near the hotel. The nearest train station is Grenoble, 63 kilometres away. Grenoble Airport is 99 kilometres off, Chambéry Savoie 115 kilometres, Lyon Saint Exupéry 172 kilometres and Geneva 201 kilometres.
Balconies, Mezzanines and Family Cabins
Every room has a private balcony, a separate toilet, a dressing area, a Nespresso machine and Black Diamond products. The Chambre Classique is 24 m²; the 26 m² Chambre Club sleeps two, and some Club rooms are accessible to guests with reduced mobility. The 29 m² Chambre Supérieure sleeps up to three.
