Megeve Ski Resort Guide - Boutique Hotels and the Best Restaurants, Schools, Bars and Clubs in Megeve

Hg2's Megeve ski resort guide explores boutique hotels and the best restaurants, as well as schools, bars, clubs, shops, sights and spas.

The Rothschild banking family developed Megeve in the 1920s as an alternative to St. Mortiz, which makes it among the first purpose-built resorts in the French Alps. Spreading out from the Medieval centre of the village are smart 20th-century additions, including a slew of stylish new hotels, restaurants and bars. Fat wallets and fur coats go hand-in-hand - quite literally, it seems - in a place that continues to attract beautiful people with old money. And for those who'd rather hit the slopes than the shops, world-class skiing awaits on the doorstep.

IT'S COLD OUTSIDE...
Hg2 has teamed up with The Linde Werdelin Ski Guide, extending its content and adding our signature flare. Branded Hg2 guides are launching in 2011, but for the moment we are offering the guides as they are to equip you for the season ahead.

VERTICAL LIMIT...
Hitting the slopes this winter? Then snap up one of the Linde-Werdelin ski guides here to help you snow-plough your way to style, with sections on runs, gastronomy, après ski, children and activities. Our own printed guides will be available later this year.
