The Martel de Janville was first built in the 1930's as a sanatorium for the benefit of French army officers and non-commissioned officers.

It was designed in 1934 by the architects Pol Abraham of Paris (1891-1966) and Henri-Jacques Le Même of Megève (1897-1997) and completed in 1937.

The building remained a nursing home until the end of June 2006 when it was sold by the Foundation des Villages de Santé et d'Hospitalisation en Altitude (VSHA) to the current developer. The building is recognised for its exceptional architecture and is on the French DOCOMOMO list with a protection status of "Protectionau titre des Monuments Historiques à l'etude, envisage pour 2005-2006".
