About

La Clusaz is a historic inn and restaurant nestled in the heart of Valle d’Aosta, in the charming village of Gignod. Built on the former way of the Celts and later a Roman road, the site has served travelers since the 12th century, offering refuge and fine dining as far back as 1140. Today the building blends rustic charm with modern comforts, exposing its storied past through its preserved interior décor, traditional wooden beams, and an authentic alpine terrace that overlooks the Gran San Bernardo pass. The culinary experience is a contemporary take on Valdostan cuisine, showcasing regional ingredients such as local cheeses, cured meats, and seasonal vegetables. Chef Piergiorgio Pellerei and Thierry Buillet craft menus that marry tradition and innovation, complemented by an extensive wine list featuring local valleys’ best vintages. Guests also enjoy a selection of half‑board and weekend packages that extend the tasting experience. Facilities are designed for comfort and accessibility: free Wi‑Fi, wheelchair‑friendly spaces, high‑chair availability, and multiple Wi‑Fi zones. The inn offers both a relaxed family ambience and an intimate setting for couples, promising thoughtful service from reception to dining. Whether you’re a history enthusiast seeking to walk in the footsteps that guided Roman legions, a food lover craving authentic alpine flavors, or a couple looking for a romantic getaway, La Clusaz delivers memorable moments surrounded by stunning mountain vistas.
