Raffles Hotels & Resorts, a leading luxury hotel brand of Accor, today announced plans for its first-ever alpine resort, located in Courchevel 1850. In collaboration with Art de Vivre as developer and owner, the resort is slated to open for the 2028 winter season and will deliver a refined, intimate slopeside retreat within the exclusive Jardin Alpin precinct.
"The introduction of Raffles Courchevel marks an extraordinary milestone for our brand, representing our first venture into the stylish world of alpine luxury and our second distinguished address in France, joining Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris," said Omer Acar, CEO, Raffles Hotels & Resorts.
Set within Les Trois Vallées, the world’s largest interconnected ski area, Courchevel 1850 is recognised for its skiing, Michelin-starred restaurants and luxury retail offering.
Raffles Courchevel will occupy a premier position within the Jardin Alpin, the most elevated and coveted enclave of Courchevel 1850, with sweeping panoramic views across the Tarentaise Valley. Guests will enjoy an alpine setting, with close proximity to the resort’s most sought-after dining, cultural, and social venues. Conceived by JMV, with interior design by Humbert & Poyet, the resort will feature 50 guestrooms and suites, offering an experience informed by Raffles’ legacy of highly personalized service.
Many guestrooms will feature private balconies overlooking the surrounding peaks. At the heart of the resort, a collection of distinctive dining spaces will invite guests to savour exceptional cuisine against a stunning alpine backdrop, from a signature bar and elegant tea lounge to two destination restaurants with winter gardens and expansive terraces. After a day on the slopes, the Spa and recovery zones will serve as a destination for restoration and renewal, combining traditional alpine wellness with precision therapies rooted in longevity science. The offering will encompass treatment rooms, thermal experiences, a dedicated fitness centre, and a panoramic swimming pool.
