CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Hyatt
Hotels Corporation (NYSE:H) announced today the opening of Hyatt
Centric La Rosière, the first Hyatt Centric hotel in France and the
first Hyatt ski resort in Europe. Located at an altitude of 1850 meters,
the 69-room hotel boasts an unbeatable slope-side location, offering
immediate access to ski lifts. Hyatt Centric La Rosière is operated by
Sophos Hotels under a franchise agreement.
Hyatt Centric La Rosière brings the Hyatt Centric brand to the French
Alps, creating a cosmopolitan vibe that invites exploration and
discovery amongst guests who want to be in the center of the action.
“We are delighted to announce the opening of Hyatt Centric La Rosière,”
said Yannick Aubry, General Manager of Hyatt Centric La Rosière. “The
hotel is ideally located to provide guests with a launch pad to discover
the best the region has to offer, whether that be the more than 160
kilometers of piste on our doorstep, or exploring the charms and
hospitality of a traditional Savoyard mountain village.”
The hotel sits in the center of Franco-Italian La Rosière, a popular
skiing destination in the Tarentaise Valley known for its dramatic
landscape and close proximity to Courchevel, Val d’Isère and Les Arcs.
The terrain surrounding the village is suitable for skiers of all
abilities, boasting the region’s best snowfall and direct access to
heli-skiing.
“We are thrilled to be part of the first Hyatt ski resort in Europe and
we believe that Hyatt Centric La Rosière will cater guests who want to
explore as well as families,” said Mr. Fernand Donnet, CEO of Sophos
Hotels. “We look forward to welcoming guests and having them experience
this beautiful destination.”
