Courchevel 1650, FranceWhere to Stay on your Courchevel 1650 Holiday
While Courchevel 1850 is known for its ultra-luxury hotels, designer boutiques, and celebrity sightings, Courchevel 1650 offers a more relaxed, welcoming vibe. The village itself has retained much of its traditional alpine character, with charming wooden chalets, cosy restaurants, and local shops lining the main streets.
The main part of Courchevel 1650 has developed along the road that links Courchevel Village to 1850, with the heart of the resort below the lift base area. The centre of Courchevel 1650 is attractive and lined with low-key shops, lively bars and restaurants serving delicious Savoyard cuisine.
Chalets spread down the hill from the main gondola, and there are many luxury ski-in/ski-out chalets located in the prestigious Belvedere area, including the impressive Ultima Courchevel, which features 13 immaculate residences. Our handpicked collection of chalets in Courchevel 1650 includes both self-catered and catered ski chalets, offering panoramic views of the French Alps and fantastic wellness facilities.
Glide down to less flashy 1650 where traditional restaurants sit closer to the region’s history and rustic soul than 1850’s lobster and caviar scene. Unbuttoned terraces such as Bel Air’s are easygoing sun traps to hang skis up come 2pm, while a string of hotels still offers ski-in ski-out ease and only one lift short of 1850’s coveted access to the resort’s runs and Les Trois Vallees.
