This former cross-country ski hostel has all the hallmarks of a good mountain inn: location, atmosphere and a strong link with the local area. It's both a comfortable place to stay and a local bistro that knows how to show off the local treasures, a friendly stopover on the Champsaur roads...
Committed to quality, the Auberge des Écrins pays particular attention to the ecological dimension of its choices. In addition to local sourcing to promote the local economy and highly organized waste recycling, energy for heating and hot water comes from a communal boiler room fuelled by sawdust.
