SAINT-PIERRE IN THE CENTRE OF EVERYTHING

Hôtel-Residence Château is located on the main street of Saint-Pierre (650 metres above sea level), a small town located in the centre of the Aosta Valley Region, along the Main Road for Courmayeur. Its geographical location is the ideal starting point for excursions to the adjacent side valleys of Cogne, Rhemes, Valsavarenche and Valgrisenche, where to discover the flora and fauna of the nearby Gran Paradiso National Park, for a holiday emersed in nature.
Alternatively, if you prefer dynamic weekends, Saint-Pierre is a great launching pad for breathtaking downhill runs from the many ski resorts in the surroundings, such as Pila, Courmayeur, La Thuile.

In addition, the borders of France and Switzerland are easily reachable, through the neighbouring passes of the Grande and Piccolo San Bernardo (open only during the summer season), the Mont Blanc and the Gran San Bernardo Tunnels.
