15 Chic Courchevel Hotels for the Ultimate French Ski Escape | Condé Nast Traveler

"Fortress-like symmetry and razor-sharp design rise from snow-laden pines on Bellecôte, where blond woods and a cream-and-gray palette marry rustic mountain calm with contemporary polish. Chambre Ski Piste rooms add private hot tubs, but the superlative two-floor spa—with sauna, hammam, column-framed pool, and a studio for pre- and post-ski work—handles aches, as do Aman-grade Thai massages. Aperitifs stretch to sake cocktails in the Mélézin Bar with cinematic slope views or on the sunny deck, and lunches and dinners become a paean to Japanese cuisine with pristine sushi and sashimi served in Nama’s warm, Savoyard-toned dining room." - Rosalyn Wikeley
