Snow-topped roofs and carved balconies – Hôtel Barrière Les Neiges
has all the charm of a traditional chalet. Situated in the heart of legend-
ary ski resort Courchevel, at the foot of the Bellecote slope, the hotel
has 42 rooms, all with a reassuring chalet feel. They feature sloping
ceilings and wooden balconies, but use pale woods and soft, neutral
fabrics to give everything a modern, luxurious feel. The public spaces
offer a warm, enveloping environment after a day on the slopes, with
rich red velvets and chunky natural wood tables. In the guest bath-
rooms a similar feel prevails, with the tactile appeal of slate, marble and
wood used to create spaces in which to unwind. The modern organic
style is perfectly evoked in the GROHE Allure basin mixer, its rounded
form complementing the bathrooms’ sculpted, freestanding tubs. In
some suites you can even soak in the bath while looking over th
e
fabulous mountain views
