Swiss Luxury Chalet- Design, comfort and views!
Chalet Nicanor is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom home with amazing views and comfort in one of the best Swiss Alps ressorts. Grimentz (and the connected ski resort of Zinal) is a charming resort in the Val d’Anniviers area, part of the Valais region in Switzerland. Back in January 2014 the two separate resorts of Grimentz and Zinal were linked by cable car which, at 3 kilometres in length, is one of the longest in Switzerland. Staying at our place allows you to choose which resort to ski each day – or even whether to ski both in one day.
The chalet occupies 2 floors and a mezzanine in the beginning of the village, close to the center and 100mts from the bus but away from
noisy tourists.
Considerable investment has occurred in this ski area in the last few years and new for 2023/2024 was the Espace Weisshorn restaurant located at an altitude of 2700 metres and offering a refined dining experience with incredible views.
Grimentz, or Grimentz-Zinal as it is now also known, is a traditional Swiss resort largely undiscovered by large tour operators, although recognised by the Swiss as one of the prettiest villages in the Valais region.
Peter Hardy in the ‘Where to Ski and Snowboard Guide’ said this about Grimentz: “Europe’s best-kept secret: five charming unspoiled villages beneath high, snow-sure slopes with spectacular scenery … It is incredible that the ski resorts in this valley can have remained so amazingly unspoiled when they are so close to big-name resorts such as Verbier, Crans-Montana and Zermatt. The villages all have lots of old wooden houses and barns, narrow paths and lanes and few shops except ski shops and those catering for locals’ needs.”
We love the place and think that if you are looking for an antidote to the large and often impersonal resorts found elsewhere in Europe you will too!
