Looking for a family escape that’s equal parts relaxation and indulgence? Say hello to Hôtel Ermitage, at the Evian Resort, the perfect mix of cozy comfort and low-key luxury. Just a quick ferry ride from Lausanne, it’s where kids can be kids, parents can relax, and everyone leaves feeling refreshed.
Warm Hugs, Hotel Style
From the moment you step inside, Hôtel Ermitage feels like a deep exhale after a busy week. The staff greets you like old friends, and the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between laid-back and elegant. Think of it as a family retreat where someone else handles dinner (and the dishes!) while you kick back by the fire and unwind.
Kid Heaven and Parent Paradise
The real showstopper? The Kids’ Resort. This isn’t your average kids’ club—it’s an all-out wonderland. Think treasure hunts, laser games, indoor sports, and even swimming. They’ve thought of everything, from baby care to teen activities, with new adventures planned daily. Come Christmas, the magic amps up with gingerbread house-making, ornament crafting, and Santa visits.
While the little ones are busy living their best lives, you’ll finally get that me-time you’ve been craving. How about a massage at Spa Quatre Terres, a dip in the indoor pool, or simply lounging with zero interruptions? Bonus: the kids can even eat lunch with the club, so there’s no need to rush.
Evenings Made for Memories
As the sun sets, the fun doesn’t stop. The lounge becomes a hub for family games like foosball, billiards, and even dominoes—cue laughter and friendly competition. Dinner follows in the relaxed, family-friendly dining room, where fresh, seasonal dishes pair beautifully with local wines. Kids' menus get it right too, featuring fries (naturally) and a healthy ketchup that wins over even the pickiest eaters.
Post-dinner? Cozy up by the fireplace or retreat to your room, where the kids are blissfully exhausted and bedtime battles are nonexistent.
A Stone’s Skip from Lausanne
Getting here is half the fun. A breezy 35-minute ferry ride across Lac Leman lands you in Evian-les-Bains, where panoramic views and alpine charm await. It’s close enough for a spontaneous weekend escape yet feels worlds away from the daily grind.
TLG Tip
Make time to try Umberto, the Evian Resort’s Italian restaurant. Their Tiram’berto dessert is legendary—trust us, you won’t want to share.
