Ennismore, the fastest-growing lifestyle hospitality company, is delighted to announce the signing of Mama Shelter Val Thorens, the highest ski destination in Europe. Opening in 2027, the iconic brand of joyful and irreverent hospitality will unveil its very first resort, creating a true festive retreat in the heart of the Alps. This ambitious project is led by Ennismore, Vista, Financière Galata, and Cogeco, partners united by a shared aim to reinvent the mountain experience with fresh, free-spirited, and convivial energy.
THE FIRST MAMA SHELTER RESORT
With 148 rooms and a restaurant featuring a panoramic terrace of over 800m², Mama Shelter Val Thorens will be much more than just a hotel; it will be a warm, lively, and full-of-character high-altitude living space where skiers, families, and friends can gather to share unforgettable, fun, and authentic moments. Guests will be able to experience the mountains “Mama-style”, with relaxation and celebration. After a day on the slopes, guests can head to the bar for a creative cocktail, visit the karaoke room to sing (loudly if not perfectly), or relax in the “Ski Lounge” to catch up with friends. Teenagers have their own “Teen Room,” and everyone can unwind in the spa, which features a sauna, hammam, treatment rooms, a fitness area, and an indoor pool with stunning mountain views.
A MOUNTAIN OF ENERGY AND CREATIVITY
Mama Shelter Val Thorens will reinvent the mountain holiday experience. Designed as a lively and relaxed resort, it celebrates skiing, leisure, and togetherness. Every space has been designed for living, laughing, dancing, and connecting, all infused with the unique sense of fun and generosity that characterise the Mama spirit. The project is being developed with the support of a BREEAM consultancy and is targeting a “Very Good” certification, underscoring its commitment to sustainable construction. In line with this, and among other initiatives, the project is aiming to valorise the majority of its construction waste, ensuring materials are reused, recycled, or recovered rather than sent to landfill, in accordance with BREEAM standards.
