Les Airelles is what winter wonderland dreams are made of. Located in the village of Courchevel in the French Alps, this 19th century Austro-Hungarian palace is the ultimate ski-in/ski-out resort.

240 employees for 32 bedrooms, 15 suites, 1 appartment and a couple of ultra luxurious cottages should give you an hint on the quality of the services. Plush carpets, gingerbread-hued wood accents, hand-painted frescoe for a perfect cosy athmosphere. Three onsite restaurants, a lounge with enormous sofas and wood-fed fires, a cocooning La Mer spa, you may even forget to hit the slopes … Les Airelles believes that modern luxury means giving guests a personalised experience that is discreet, subtle and all-encompassing. They even offer “first track” Wake up early and ski down La Saulire slope before it opens to the public, taking in the beautiful views and fresh snow as the sun rises. Dogsledding in the mountains and forests that surround the hotel. If you are more experienced, go heliskiing, skiing down slopes that are inaccessible to the general public. More athletic guests will be keen to explore the snow-capped peaks of the Alps in solitude. Accompanied by a guide, lovers of the great outdoors with a taste for adventure will be able ascend mountain passes and enjoy
off-piste descents accessible only to those willing able to hike.

Les Airelles Courchevel is a seasonal property, open from December through spring.
