Also
It's no secret that old 007 loves an action-packed slope scene, but former Bond star Roger Moore, was equally fond of this Crans-Montana corner off-camera, spending most of his later years in a chalet 10 minutes west of LeCrans.

Our favourite rooms
Fond of a bubble bath? The Oural Deluxe room features a big ol’ tub with heart-melting views over the mountains. For a tad more space, the Junior Suite Annapurna wows with its south-facing wraparound balcony (the largest of the lot, actually), but couples looking to dial up the romance should opt for the Junior Suite Dolomites, which is clad in pine wood and decorated in soul-soothing shades of forest greens.
Poolside
The heated outdoor pool is undoubtedly the hotel’s headliner, sunk into the snow with views toward the sawtooth peaks of the Valais. But, if you’d prefer to avoid the icy sprint outside (short though it may be), you can enjoy nature’s lot from the indoor pool, which is lined in Vietnamese green stone or the bubbling Jacuzzi; both benefit from floor-to-ceiling, mountain-framing windows.
Spa
Ease those ski-weary muscles at the hotel’s intimate LeSpa, where grounding interiors of natural pine set the scene for age-defying facials, post-piste pummellings and a range of sculpting-and-smoothing aesthetic treatments to get you feeling (and looking) your best. There’s a fitness area with a running machine, exercise bike, cross trainer, and both free and cable weights for getting in shape the old-fashioned way, and a hammam and sauna to kick back in afterward.
Packing tips
Slope-appropriate attire (but chic enough for aprés), and a novel or two to keep you entertained while curled up beside the fire.
Also
Each floor of LeCrans is serviced by an elevator. Guests with mobility issues should opt for the Superior room, which features an accessible bathroom.
Pet‐friendly

Children
Welcome. There’s a kids’ menu at the restaurant, and private, age-adapted ski lessons; and hiking tours can be arranged on request.
