Rosewood will make its long-awaited ski debut this winter with the opening of Rosewood Courchevel Le Jardin Alpin, set within Courchevel 1850’s exclusive Jardin Alpin enclave. The December launch marks the brand’s second property in mainland France and its first mountain resort worldwide.
The 51-key property has been designed by Tristan Auer, whose tactile approach layers timber and stone with copper accents and mirrored surfaces. The result feels more like a private chalet than a hotel, and includes a commission from Icelandic-Danish artist Olafur Eliasson: a suspended crystalline installation that plays with light and reflection across the lobby’s mirrored planes.
Auer describes the concept as such, with each of the three signature houses accommodating up to eight guests and featuring panoramic terraces overlooking Les Trois Vallées. The largest, the four-bedroom Jardin Alpin Apartment, includes a private elevator, a cinema room, and terrace views of La Saulire’s peak.
The property’s restaurant will serve Mediterranean-inflected dishes inspired by the French and Italian Alps. It will shift from sunlit lunches on the terrace to intimate, après-ski evenings built around slow-cooked mountain fare and a robust wine list.
On the slopes, Rosewood’s ski concierge team will offer experiences such as private Savoyard dinners at mountaintop chalets and “First and Last Track” sessions granting early or late access to Courchevel’s famed runs.
Wellness will take center stage at the alpine debut of Asaya, Rosewood’s spa and wellness concept. The concept offers treatments developed with EviDenS de Beauté and Sodashi. Highlights include the Ski Legs Revival massage and the Oxylight 3D Radiance facial, which combines cryotherapy, microdermabrasion, and LED therapy.
For Rosewood, Le Jardin Alpin reinforces the group’s presence in Europe’s luxury capitals—this time, with ski-in/ski-out access and rooms starting from 2,300 euros a night.
