Thermes Saint-Gervais

Renovation and compliance upgrade of the Saint-Gervais-les-Bains thermal baths building and park.

Nestled in the heart of Mont-Blanc, the thermal baths built in the early 1990s required modernization. The renovation was carried out in two phases: first, the demolition of the old thermal facility, which was replaced by a landscaped park and the creation of outdoor pools.

In the second phase, the building’s façade was renovated with larger openings to enhance natural light, while respecting the original architectural design.

Finally, the 3,000 m² interior was completely redesigned to offer greater comfort and a new identity aligned with the Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc dermo-cosmetic brand. A concept store, a thermal circuit, and various rest and treatment rooms were carefully imagined.

From a technical standpoint, the project involved restructuring certain areas, either extensively (complete refurbishment of zones) or lightly (floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, HVAC, plumbing, etc.).

The work was carried out in multiple phases to ensure continuity of services provided by L’Oréal.
