In Briançon, a fortified town listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a new chapter began this fall with the opening of the Garrigae Briançon Barracks & SpaHoused in the former Colaud barracks, this new 4-star hotel perfectly embodies the fusion of Alpine heritage, restored architecture, and contemporary hospitality. A place steeped in history, it has now become one of the new hubs for exploring Briançon and its surrounding peaks.
Long occupied by the 159th Alpine Infantry Regiment, a unit closely linked to the birth of alpine skiing, the barracks set the rhythm of life in the neighborhood for over a century. Its redevelopment, led by the Noemys GroupIt has been designed with respect for its identity: preserved volumes, clean lines, warm materials and a soothing atmosphere. The soul of the place remains, now open to travelers seeking authenticity and comfort.
With 83 16 bedrooms suitesThe Garrigae Caserne de Briançon**** & Spa caters to both nature lovers and business travelers. After a day in the great outdoors, we meet at the Le Bastion restaurant-bar, before extending the experience at G Spa Cinq Mondes to enjoy signature Garrigae treatments such as the " "Serenity of the Summits," an inimitable olfactory journey, or "The Call of the Mountain," a body and face massage. An indoor pool, sauna, hammam, sensory shower, and Nordic bath offer a moment of total disconnection with stunning mountain views.
Ideally located just 6-minute walk from the Prorel cable cars leading to the ski area of Serre Chevalier Briançon ValleyThe hotel is a prime location for both tourist and business stays, summer and winter.
But during this winter period, the main activity obviously remains the panoramic skiingwith wide, sunny slopes, both at the beginning and end of the season. For an equally immersive alternative, snowshoeing at sunrise offers another perspective of the mountains, quieter and more contemplative, facing the peaks of the Hautes-Alpes.
Between reinvented heritage, alpine lifestyle and privileged access to wide open spaces, the Garrigae Caserne de Briançon**** & Spa stands out as a unique address.
