Hotel information
Grandes Alpes is a luxury ski-in, ski-out resort directly located on the Bellecote slope. Children and beginners can practice their technique here at their own pace, the green pistes providing optimum snow cover during any run. As you’re also one minute away by foot from La Croisette, at the heart of Courchevel 1850, you have access to the three main ski lifts, so you can head out to more advanced areas. Not only that, but luxury shopping centre Espace Diamant is close by for a shopping spree!
A combination between a luxurious hotel and chalet, Grandes Alpes feels both exclusive and homely. Each apartment is chalet-like, with a spacious living room, dining room, cosy fireplace and kitchen in addition to private bathrooms.
