Which room should you book at Cheval Blanc Courchevel?
Book the Deluxe Junior Suite: 65 square meters with a balcony that, per its page, opens onto views over the slopes. It is the only room category in the hotel that promises the pistes rather than the mountains or the village, and it adds a living room, a dining room and a powder room to the bedroom. In a ski hotel, the slope view is what you are paying for.
Cheval Blanc Courchevel has 36 keys at Le Jardin Alpin in Courchevel 1850, ski-in, ski-out onto Les 3 Vallées, per the hotel's page. It opens for the season on December 4, 2026. Le 1947, Yannick Alléno's restaurant in the hotel, is Courchevel's only three Michelin star table.

What is the smallest room worth booking?
The Deluxe Superior Room, because it is the one room category that faces south. At 45 to 48 square meters it looks toward La Saulire, the peak above Courchevel, and gets the afternoon sun on its balcony. The Superior Room below it faces the village. If the suite is beyond the budget, this is the room I'd take.
Who should book a duplex?
A couple staying a full week who want two rooms of living space, and a sauna of their own. The Deluxe Duplex Suite has a sauna in the bathroom, two living rooms and a balcony that wraps the whole floor. Both duplexes can connect to one or two more rooms, which makes them the answer for a family with older children who want their own door.
What comes with the stay?
The kids' clubs are open every day from 11am to 8pm, which in a ski hotel is most of the day. Le Carrousel takes children and Le Paddock teenagers, per the families page. The Guerlain spa has a pool, sauna, hammam and an outdoor Russian banya, 10am to 8pm. Le 1947 serves dinner Wednesday to Sunday only, so book it with the room and plan the other nights around it.
The hotel publishes no closing date, no rates and no holiday minimum stay. Ask about all three when you enquire for Christmas or New Year.
What else should you read before booking Courchevel?
Next door in the same Jardin Alpin, compare the Les Airelles room guide. Still choosing the resort? Courchevel or St. Moritz makes the call. In Paris, the Cheval Blanc Paris room guide covers the sister hotel on the Seine, and the ski hotel room list has the other mountains.
