Grande Dixence Dam Photos

From: Grande Dixence Dam

The Hotel du Barrage is at the base of the dam, above the parking lot, the aerial cableway, and the exhibition hall. It may look like a convention hotel, but it has only 72 guestrooms and a full-service restaurant. (The high-rise structure originally served as a workers' dormitory from 1961-1965, when the current dam was built.)
