What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The interiors are refined but fanciful, mixing elements of Art Deco and Art Nouveau.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
In Courchevel 1850 on Rue de Bellecôte, directly on the ski piste above the village.
The rooms
Suites trade rustic timber for metallic wall murals and velvet sofas. Several open onto private terraces with fireplaces.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
Highback woven chairs sit on the hardwood pool deck, and training machines face floor-to-ceiling mirrors in the gym.
The baths
Built-in benches line the mosaic steam room, and a wooden hot tub steams on the snow-covered terrace.
The spa
Two treatment suites partner with skincare house Olivier Claire, set just beyond a backlit onyx reception desk.
Prohibition Bar
A glowing geometric counter serves craft cocktails, and low armchairs surround a branded card table with poker chips.
At the table
Freshly baked pastries stock the morning buffet, and tables beside a black marble fireplace look across snow-covered mountains.
How it began
The owners built it as a family chalet, acquiring neighboring land as their children grew before opening to guests in 2021.
