\"They share experiences and unforgettable memories. No pollution, no cars; the calm, the cold and the winter sun... All this makes the participants really relaxed.<\/em>\"This is the opinion of Fanny Dunand, MICE Sales Manager at H\u00f4tels d'en haut, a group which runs four high-altitude establishments: the Alpaga in Meg\u00e8ve, the Val Thorens and the Fitz Roy in Val Thorens and the H\u00f4tel des 3 Vall\u00e9es in Courchevel.<\/p>\n

As opposed to \"less than an hour from...\" meetings - to be completed by your choice of: the company's head office, a major international hub, a TGV station with excellent transport links -, Seminars in the mountains don't leave nothing to chance.<\/strong> Train or plane, then transfer to climb to the very top: it often takes several hours to get from Paris to one or other of the Alpine resorts. It's an investment in time that pays off once you're at the summit, in one of the chic hotels dotted around the mountain resorts.<\/p>\n

Meg\u00e8ve, Chamonix or Courchevel in France, Gstaad, Saint-Moritz or Zermatt in Switzerland, Garmisch-Partenkirschen in Germany, Kitzb\u00fchel in Austria, Cortina or Sestriere in Italy: there is no shortage of resorts in the Alps that have become the most popular. winter legends<\/strong>The city's main square attracts celebrities, luxury boutiques and art galleries. But there are so many others that are no less charming, giving business events a little corporate 'Christmas magic'. \"When you arrive in a century-old village like Champ\u00e9ry, there's something Heidi-like about it, something totally magical.<\/em>It's the perfect place to relax and unwind,\" explains Alexandra Pruvost, Ch\u00e2teauform' manager for Switzerland, where the green meeting specialist has three seminar centres, two in Champ\u00e9ry and a new business and relaxation centre in Commeire.<\/p>\n

For a larger committee or to bring together larger teams, our hotel facilities in Meg\u00e8ve can accommodate up to 162 rooms.<\/em>\"<\/p>\n
