Restaurant in Saint-Véran, Queyras
Le Célestin
Generous mountain cuisine, made with what Queyras produces
Le Célestin is the restaurant of Alta Peyra hotel in Saint-Véran, in Queyras (Hautes-Alpes). A brasserie-style menu is served at lunchtime, from noon to 2:30 pm, on the 360 m² south-facing terrace at the foot of the slopes. Mountain cuisine, local produce and short supply chains from Queyras are featured in the evening, from 7 pm. Open to hotel guests and visitors by reservation.
The menu follows the seasons and the valley’s producers.
Spirits from the Saint-Véran Distillery and the 4 Frères Distillery, liqueurs and jams from Plantivore, and honey from Monnet & Fils reflect our commitment to local producers. Generous, authentic cuisine that showcases the flavours of Queyras.
Unpretentious service that is both discreet and attentive, in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
THE RESTAURANT
Dine facing the peaks, then look up at the sky
In summer and winter alike, the terrace welcomes you for lunch and aperitifs in the sunshine. In winter, the dining room becomes the village’s best shelter when snow is falling outside.
The restaurant’s name is no coincidence. In Saint-Véran, the sky is part of the meal, and many dinners end outdoors, with heads tilted up towards the stars. On a clear night, the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye from the restaurant door.
Le Célestin welcomes hotel guests and passing visitors alike, whether couples, families or groups of friends. Reservations are recommended and mandatory for non-hotel guests: +33 4 15 54 44 40.

Dinner is served every evening from 7 pm to 9:30 pm. Reservations are recommended for hotel guests and required for outside guests. Please let us know about any dietary requirements or allergies when booking; the kitchen will adapt.
