Nothing but the Milky Way above you in Le Chasseron

Jul 14, 2021

This year, the third highest summit in the Jura is hosting two rooms as part of the Million Stars Hotel project, an original concept with rooms throughout Switzerland all offering a breathtaking view of the sky

The Hotel du Chasseron is perched on a natural panoramic terrace at an altitude of 1,607 metres on the balcony of the Vaud Jura. A location renowned for its incomparable view of the Milky Way – which can be seen from here with the naked eye – and the Alps. This year, the hotel is making two unusual structures available to its guests. These are two room-sized barrels installed on the panoramic terrace adjoining the hotel. With their windows in the shape of a crescent moon, they offer the perfect solution for enjoying the view in complete relaxation. In the evening, visitors are invited to enjoy the famous Mauler fondue with a sparkling wine from the region in the restaurant. And after a night under the stars, they are welcome to enjoy breakfast with a selection of local products and flavours. A real escape from time.
