WHERE TO STAY
For those who want to party in
a luxury chalet, this is the place.
Sir Richard Branson’s The Lodge
is an opulent little spot for up to
18 guests. For a mere £49,500
(€57,600) a week minimum,
you get indoor and outdoor hot
tubs, mini ice-rink, unlimited
Champagne, egg-shaped baths
with designer rubber ducks (an
absolute must for the jet-set)
and,
naturellement
, spectacular
views. CKVerbier (
ckverbier.com
)
has six properties, including the
stunning Gentianes, which costs
from 28,000 CHF (€22,800)
a week for up to 12 people, and
includes a chef, two hostesses
and a dedicated chalet manager
who’ll book husky rides, ice
go-carting or anything else you
fancy. Needless to say, few of us
will be taking rooms at either
place. However, there are plenty
of far less pricey options dotted
around the resort. Hotel-wise,
the Nevai is walking distance
from the main lift and has
easyJet
flies to...
Geneva from 55
destinations. See our insider
guide on page 136.

TRAVELLER
lovely contemporary rooms,
a rather good restaurant and
lobby cocktail bar. The Farinet
bedrooms are cheaper and have
an attractive Alpine feel, plus
it’s an easy fall into bed from
the party scene downstairs.
Chalet Adrien is probably the
smartest hotel in Verbier. It’s a
Relais & Chateaux property with
just 11 rooms and Verbier’s only
Michelin-starred restaurant,
La Table d’Adrien.
