Whilst the hotel does not include a separate restaurant, two of its bars offer some fantastic food options. Their menus have been designed so that much of what is on offer suits those with gluten and dairy allergies, whilst not compromising on flavour, texture or appearance. The menu is something everyone can share and enjoy together regardless of their dietary needs. You can look forward to:
The Valais is famous for some excellent produce and therefore they try to source their ingredients locally where possible. Many of their cheeses come from Verbier’s very own Laiterie and their meats from their local butcher, Georgy Maret in Le Chable.
Children are welcome at the hotel, however please not that the Farinet comprises of not only the Hotel but also an After-Ski bar, a Lounge Bar, and a night club. The atmosphere is lively and consequently noise can travel up in to the hotel. Even though they do their utmost to contain the noise (including sound-proofing of the rooms), it can be inconvenient for some guests, especially those with children.
