Auberge d'Aillon et d'Ailleurs

One room comes with a telescope; another is dressed like a Savoyard attic someone actually loved. This small mountain inn in the Bauges Massif sits inside a UNESCO Geopark, and its fourteen rooms each go their own way, mixing local craft with a quietly adventurous design sensibility. The surrounding landscape handles the itinerary: skiing, hiking, paragliding, and enough wildlife to reward the early risers.
