Where to Stay in Courchevel: Four Villages Compared
Alpes Maison · · 2 min read
Choosing a Courchevel village is a practical decision as well as a matter of atmosphere. Start with who is travelling, how you want to spend each day and the layout you need at home. This guide compares the four Courchevel villages in our current collection; La Tania and Saint-Bon also belong to the destination.
Courchevel 1850: dining and resort life
Courchevel 1850 brings together shopping, restaurants and ski infrastructure. Consider it if evenings in the resort are part of your holiday. Check your chosen property's location rather than assuming every address is in the centre. Explore Courchevel 1850 and Bellecôte Palace, with seven bedrooms for up to fourteen guests.
Le Praz: a village setting
Le Praz has traditional Savoyard character and a gondola connection towards 1850 during operating periods. It can suit a group that values village surroundings as much as mountain outings. Compare Le Praz properties: Le Praz – Uniquee has four bedrooms for eight guests; larger groups can consider Le Praz Chalet. Our local dining guide helps plan evenings.
Courchevel Village: a smaller resort base
Also known as 1550, Courchevel Village offers a different scale from 1850, with its own snow front. Compare the daily journey to lessons and your return plans before choosing. Three Valleys Escape accommodates twelve guests in six bedrooms. See the Village guide for the setting.
Moriond: an apartment alternative
Moriond, also known as 1650, has a distinct ski sector and dining scene. For a smaller group, Panoramic Heights is a four-bedroom apartment for eight guests. Read the Moriond guide and compare the actual sleeping arrangements, including the bunk bedroom.
Make the choice work for your group
- For children or beginners, confirm the ski-school meeting point before booking accommodation.
- For mixed skiers and non-skiers, agree how everyone will travel and meet for lunch.
- For evenings out, check return transport independently of daytime ski lifts.
- Compare bedrooms and bed types, not just maximum capacity. Review each property's included services and current price.
Village maps do not establish walking times from individual chalets. Ask us to confirm the route that matters to you. Lift connections depend on opening dates and conditions; for autumn travel, read our October–November guide.
Send your dates, group size and preferred village for a personalised proposal. Availability and optional services are confirmed individually.
