Cheval Blanc Courchevel

"The French ski resort of Courchevel 1850 is an adventurer’s paradise, known for its challenging black runs and off-piste terrain. Inside the four walls of this nouveau Alpine lodge, however, interior designer Sybille de Margerie has created a cocoon of coziness—cashmere and furs, cuckoo clocks and fluffy sheep sculptures, with a warm signature scent of orange, cardamom, amber, and patchouli wafting through the halls. After a day out on the slopes, weary skiers can retreat to the hotel’s Russian banya, hammam, or infinity-edge indoor pool. Or, better yet, spend a few hours traversing through the innovative tasting menu at chef Yannick Alléno’s Le 1947, the only three-Michelin-starred restaurant in Courchevel."
