About Courchevel

One of France’s most popular ski resorts, Les Trois Vallées' Courchevel is famously glitzy. The area’s four villages each have a distinct identity, and are brilliant for couples, friends or families looking to savour superb skiing, as well as fabulous food and nightlife. There are also a plethora of fabulous hotels and chalets to choose from, with the best places to stay in Courchevel ranging from five-star hotels with Michelin-rated restaurants to cosy boutique boltholes for romantic escapes.

In a resort where each village has its own character, it’s worth thinking carefully about where you decide to be based. La Praz, also known as Courchevel 1300, is a classic French alpine community with pretty wooden chalets and a good selection of bars and eateries — including the famed Bistrot du Praz. A laid-back destination, it offers easy access to the vast network of spectacular slopes which draw both French and international sports enthusiasts to Courchevel each winter. Courchevel Village — 1550 — is a hub of simple, self-catering and privately owned chalets, whilst Courchevel Moriond — or 1650 — is a family favourite, with classic chalets and an increasing profusion of well-equipped hotels.

Built in the mid-20th Century, glamorous Courchevel 1850 is the most exclusive village in the region, with beautiful luxury hotels and a vibrant après-ski scene. Foodies will adore the seven Michelin-starred restaurants, whilst romantics and those dreaming of an indulgent ski holiday can kick back in style at an array of five- and six-star hotels. Whether you’re tempted by the scenic summer hiking, the snow-clad winter slopes or the lively nightlife, Courchevel really does have it all.
