History
Remodeled from a traditional Swiss chalet-style slope-side building anchored into the rocks; originally designed as a 90-room hotel by JP Emery Architects before Six Senses took over and transformed it into contemporary luxury with sustainable local materials.
Six Senses Crans-Montana opened in February 2023 as the brand's first Swiss resort, on the final turn of the Chetzeron red piste at Route des Téléphériques 60 — one of the most direct ski-in, ski-out addresses in the Valais Alps, with panoramas running from the Matterhorn to Mont Blanc across 140 kilometres of pistes descending from the near-10,000-foot Plaine Morte glacier.
The setting
Six Senses Crans-Montana occupies Route des Téléphériques 60, just above the main Crans-Cry d'Er gondola on the final turn of the Chetzeron red piste — among the most coveted ski-in, ski-out addresses in the Swiss Alps since opening in February 2023 as the brand's first Swiss resort. The hotel commands panoramic views from the Matterhorn to the French Mont Blanc massif across the Valais valley, with 140 kilometres of pistes descending from the near-10,000-foot Plaine Morte glacier. The Cry d'Er lift is 20 minutes away and the resort centre 11 minutes by transit, while the hotel sits within a cluster of landmark luxury addresses on a plateau whose prestige traces back to 1893 and the Omega European Masters tradition since 1939.
