Mountain Wonders: New Hotels in France

While the mountains make us think of ski season, these new places are fabulous enough to visit any time of year – no snow required

VAL THORENS

Named in reference to ski champion Marielle Goitschel, with 83 rooms at an altitude of 2,300m, the new ski-in/ski-out Hôtel Marielle greets guests with an elegant mix of modern and vintage details.

TIGNES

At the new Diamond Rock in Tignes, you’ll feel as if you’ve stepped into a traditional mountain refuge, only in its ultra-chic five-star luxury version, with natural snow throughout the season thanks to its high altitude.

LA ROSIÈRE

Everything that the all-inclusive Club Med evokes, added to state-of-the-art facilities and an unbeatable location right on the slopes, with access to the 650m² Cinq Mondes spa, and 160km ski area.

VAL D’ISÈRE

Set in an ideal location, the K2 Chogori stands outs for its understated elegance and bespoke contemporary décor inspired by Tibetan aesthetics – a luxury getaway in a welcoming village resort.
