About this property
Renovated Classic 1803 Chalet
One of the oldest buildings in Zinal, Les Violettes is a authentic two-bedroom chalet built in 1803. Completely renovated in 2017, the interior was modernized and equipped with the latest technology while the essence of the 1803 chalet remains intact. The chalet offers majestic views of the mountains and benefits from its unique location in the center of the village steps away from the cable car, grocery stores, restaurants serving local specialties, and a pool and spa.
The living room is spacious and furnished with a classically Swiss touch. The original walls have been preserved and the room features the stone stove that heated the chalet in the 1800s. Today, under floor heating provides a comfortable and consistent temperature. A modern sofa mixes with furniture and souvenirs from earlier times. Two sunny balconies are accessible from the living room and provide views of the mountain summits.
The kitchen has everything you need to make your stay tasty. It is fully equipped with an induction cooktop, oven, dishwasher, microwave, Nespresso coffee machine and toaster. Fondue pots, raclette and charbonnade grills are also included. A bar made out of old wood and a dining table and chairs completes the kitchen space.
The bathroom features a rain shower, towel warmer and hair dryer. The bedrooms are well lit with windows that showcase the Swiss Alps. Towels, sheets, duvets and pillows are provided.
Other chalet amenities include a flat screen HD Smart television, high speed Internet, Bluetooth wireless Denon speakers, a washer and dryer and on-site parking.

Very nice chalet: classic from the outside and clean, contemporary and comfortable insiders. We loved it! Central place in the beautiful village of Zinal. Pleasant communication with Laura and Philippe and everything was perfectly organised.
A lovely apartment in a nice town with wonderful hiking. Very well equipped with owners who provide all the information you need for a great visit. Highly recommended and a place we would love to stay on a future visit.
I never write reviews but am doing so because this place is such a remarkable place. Owners gave thought to every detail. The Chalet is absolutely beautiful and we just loved everything about it. Owners gave very clear instructions about everything beforehand and in their manual and had all the right supplies for cooking, cleaning etc. Free passes for cable car and other transportation are in the folder. Great washer and dryer. Music speaker system with app to phone. Very spacious chalet, bigger and better than the pictures. Two balconies. Great wooden picnic table out back with yard. Wonderful wood floors and furnishings throughout. Kitchen is also great with 4 seat dining table and two seat tall chair bar to serve guests if you have friends over for dinner (which we did). I can’t thank them enough for the attention to detail and beautifully refurbished Chalet. Parking and location so convenient as well. This stay has been the highlight of our trip so far and we feel so lucky to have found this place. Wow, what a great find!

Wunderschönes und gemütliches Chalet im Zentrum
Neu renoviertes und mit viel Liebe eingerichtes Chalet mitten in Zinal in unmittelbarer Nähe zur Liftstation und zu Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Die Wohnung liegt im Obergeschoß und hat einen eigenen Eingang, im EG befindet sich die Ferienwohnung der sehr netten Vermieter.
Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht und war sehr sauber. Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub und kommen sicherlich wieder.
