Run for the past 8 years by Tim and Janie, the Croisette is perfect for anyone who wants to be at the very centre of the action.

Accommodation in the newly refurbished rooms is on a bed and breakfast basis, enabling guests to take advantage of the numerous quality restaurants of which Courchevel is justly proud. There is a very cosy private lounge downstairs, where residents can slip away from the crowd and enjoy afternoon tea at the end of a hard day’s skiing, before surfacing to the noisy set.

On the other hand, Le Jump gets very sparky once the lifts close and is a great place to start and/or finish the evening. The bar also serves very reasonably priced and tasty lunches and has a small terrace to relax on as well as a warm Savoyard interior.

In short, La Croisette is perfect for those who enjoy a spirited atmosphere, the convenience of being slap bang in the middle of the resort, a dozen paces from the piste and would want to sample different restaurants in the evenings.
