Before you go
A few useful questions
Is this the historic hotel associated with the domain?
The historic domain was associated with Haute Montagne at 46 Le Village in Lajoux. This independent notebook considers La Mainaz near Col de la Faucille as a separate regional mountain-hotel option. No rebranding or continuity is claimed.
Which hotel do the photographs show?
All property and room photographs in this notebook show La Mainaz / Chalet Hôtel La Mainaz Restaurant & Resort. They are source-labelled listing materials, not photographs of Hôtel-Restaurant de la Haute-Montagne.
Do the listing links guarantee a room or price?
No. Trip.com and Expedia links open the property listings. Check your dates, room category, occupancy, inclusions and cancellation rules with the provider.
A Jura stay with a different address
La Mainaz is on the D1005, Route du Col de la Faucille, in the Jura mountain area. The official and Trip sources use Gex; Expedia uses Mijoux. Match the hotel name, road and postcode 01170 together when checking the booking, rather than relying only on the locality label.
The former Hôtel-Restaurant de la Haute-Montagne associated with this domain was at 46 Le Village in Lajoux. La Mainaz is a separate regional alternative. Neither the address nor the name establishes a rebranding, and this guide makes no claim of continuity between the two properties.
Choose the room around the people travelling
The selected Premium Double Room example lists 291 square feet and a double bed for two guests. The Deluxe Double Room, Balcony example lists 409 square feet for two. If outdoor space is important, select the category that explicitly names a balcony and confirm the exact offer instead of assuming every room has one.
The Junior Suite example lists 377 square feet, a double bed and a double sofa bed, with occupancy of four. It is a different sleeping arrangement from the larger Deluxe Double Room, not a simple ranking by room size. For a family or shared stay, check who will use the sofa bed, whether it will be prepared and which guests are included in the final quote.
Arrival, meals and time outdoors
The official hotel information describes 21 rooms and suites, restaurants and a panoramic mountain setting. I would decide how much time to spend at the property before comparing rates. If a particular meal is part of the plan, ask about restaurant opening and a table for your dates separately from the room reservation.
For a mountain arrival, confirm the current route, parking instructions and any seasonal road requirements directly with the property. Keep outdoor plans flexible until you have checked current conditions. This guide does not estimate the drive from Lajoux or promise a particular view from every category; ask about the actual room and route that you will use.
Questions for planning your stay
Why do the listings use both Gex and Mijoux?
The selected providers use different locality labels. Match La Mainaz, D1005 Route du Col de la Faucille and postcode 01170 together.
Which example has a balcony?
The saved Expedia category is named Deluxe Double Room, Balcony. Check that exact category on your chosen offer.
What makes the Junior Suite different?
The selected example lists a double bed plus a double sofa bed for up to four, rather than simply offering the largest floor area.
Is this the former Lajoux hotel?
No. The old Haute-Montagne address is retained as historical context; La Mainaz is a separate regional choice.
