From the small inn
at the Hotel *** Joy
The hotel Joy in Villard de Lans was founded in 1880, it was then a small house that was transformed into a village restaurant almost half a century later. In 1952, Monsieur and Madame Bouvier bought the premises and, driven by their attachment to roses, turned it into the Hôtel Joy.

Michel Bouvier took over the management of the hotel from his parents. Like his father, he managed to combine his career as a skier and then as a ski instructor with that of the head of an establishment to which he gave a new quality label. He then undertook major renovation work which has enabled him to obtain a new quality label in 2010:
