Courchevel, France
Relax in effortless style at our alpine retreat on Courchevel 1850’s prettiest peak. L’Apogée Courchevel was created for lovers of snowy mountain beauty in Jardin Alpin, and is acclaimed with Palace Distinction. High above an historic Olympic ski jump, the views are spectacular, while ski in-ski out facilities open onto the world’s finest slopes, heaven for both families and super schussers.
It takes 2 hours to get from Geneva Airport (GVA) to L'Apogée Courchevel - an Oetker Collection Hotel by car.
South-facing Deluxe Rooms are bathed in Alpine sunlight with atmospheric views over snow laden pine trees and sloping woodland. Their average size of 323 square feet makes them the most spacious rooms in Courchevel in this category. Finished in luxuriant materials, with bespoke furnishings, these rooms offer the warmth of a home from home – something particularly appreciated after a day on the ski slopes.
There are nine L’Apogée Courchevel Suites each offering 807 square feet of the discreet luxury, including a separate lounge that can host an additional guest on a sofa bed. Finished in soft sensual materials, guests return from the slopes to be enveloped in warmth and comfort, making these suites ideal for a long stay. Some feature a steam shower while others may feature a balcony. Each suite has a different view over the natural mountain landscape, sweeping down Courchevel valley, the slopes or south over alpine woodland.

Arranged over five floors and directly connected to the hotel, it blends the comfort and seclusion of an exquisite private home with all the advantages of our five star hotel in Courchevel 1850. Extraordinarily spacious, it offers 5,920 square feet of discreet luxury – with five bedrooms, seven bathrooms and a lift – all finished in a modern, colourful style by celebrated Parisian designers India Mahdavi and Joseph Dirand. For private leisure it has a spa, home cinema and stunning views of the surrounding mountains and the famous 3 Vallées from its unique vantage point at the top of the former Olympic ski jump. A butler and private chef (on request) remain at your disposal to ensure the most restful and enjoyable time for you and your family.
