K2 Palace is a dramatic hotel and chalet concept and the sister of K2 Altitude. Perched on the Cospillot slope, and with ski-in, ski-out access to the Cospillot piste, it forms its own little hamlet. The main building houses 29 generously sized and luxuriously appointed rooms complete with iPad, iPod docking station and PlayStation 3. Families will appreciate the sumptuous chalets featuring five to six bedrooms, lounge with home cinema, swimming pool, hammam and hot tub; service comes courtesy of a personal cook, butler and maid. At the Michelin-starred Kintessence restaurant, cuisine is overseen by chef Jean-Rémi Caillon, while Black Pyramid serves breakfasts and creative brunches. The serene Goji spa with swimming pool specialises in treatments by La Prairie and the Shu Uemura hairdressing salon features Chromatherapy. The Kbaret night club converts into a cinema and there is a children’s club and teen playroom featuring racing car arcade games as well as an interactive dance floor.
The high altitude of the ski area, along with the regular, ongoing investments in cultured snow production means The Three Valleys area is able to guarantee snow cover from the beginning of December until the end of April across the entire ski area.
