Hotel Des Glaciers

Hotel Des Glaciers – Alpine Tradition and Family Hospitality at the Foot of Mont Blanc

A historic mountain home turned charming retreat in Courmayeur.

In the heart of the breathtaking Courmayeur valley, at the foot of the Mont Blanc massif, stands Hotel Des Glaciers—a place where the memory of the past blends with modern hospitality.

The building was originally known as Casa Glarey, a traditional alpine home where, for over three centuries, generations lived a simple and resilient life.
In 1985, former alpine guide Alessio Pennard transformed the house into a warm and welcoming hotel. Today, the hotel is managed by his son, Edoardo Alberto Pennard, and his family, who continue to carry on the legacy with care and dedication.
