Luxury Ski Hotel
Few hotels offer the first impression of Courchevel's Le Strato, a daring and visually stunning luxury design hotel created by the founder of French ski brand Rossignol. The property is located in Courchevel 1850 at the base of the Cospillot lift within a quintessential chalet that mixes contemporary décor with antique pieces and artwork selected by designers Pierre Dubois and Aimé Cécil. Perks like a kitchen led by 2-star Michelin chef Jean-André Charial of L'Ourtau de Baumamiere add to the allure of the property that's also home to an in-house ski boutique with champagne bar and on-demand staff of world-champion skiers that can take you don't the mountains hidden trails. A luxury spa offers a mix of modern art and age-old architecture for one of the area's most visually unique holistic retreats with indoor pool and sauna series.
The Room
Period French Alpine architecture wraps a total of just 25 rooms in a palette of leather-upholstered walls, arched wooden windows and always-prominent pieces of baroque art. Modern touches prevail with black-and-white ski photography and vintage Alpine prints juxtaposed against stark modern bathroom with marble details and deep soaking tubs. Overall design shows a reserved but sophisticated aesthetic that will prove timeless against some of Courchevel's showier ski hotel palaces.
