Aman Le Mélézin, France – Courchevel’s Chateau of Snow, Stillness, and Style

Rising from the snowy pines of Courchevel 1850, Aman Le Mélézin blends the thrill of Alpine adventure with the poise of a French château. With just 31 rooms and suites, a ski-in/ski-out location on the Bellecôte Piste, and panoramic mountain views at every turn, this is winter hospitality elevated to art.

Set to reopen for the 2025/26 ski season on 11 December, Aman Le Mélézin promises its signature balance of active days and deeply restorative nights—just where you need it most.

A Ski-In, Ski-Out Sanctuary in Les Trois Vallées

Few ski retreats rival Aman Le Mélézin’s location. Positioned directly on the Bellecôte run, this four-storey alpine lodge offers immediate access to the world’s largest interconnected ski area—Les Trois Vallées.

From your room to the lift in minutes, and back again without ever taking off your skis.

Yet the experience here is more than sport. The timber exterior, stone fireplaces, and sculpted interiors speak of heritage—crafted for those who seek elegance as much as elevation.

Rooms Framed by Mountains

The resort’s 31 suites are designed to cocoon guests in warmth and beauty. Natural materials—blonde wood, soft wool, local stone—create a calm contrast to the white outside.

Many suites feature private balconies, some with outdoor Jacuzzis, all oriented to maximize light and vistas. Whether you wake to powder-covered trees or twilight over the peaks, each view reminds you where you are: somewhere extraordinary.

Nama – Japanese Cuisine at Altitude

Dining at Aman Le Mélézin is led by Nama, the resort’s signature restaurant and one of Courchevel’s most celebrated. Rooted in traditional Japanese techniques, the menu offers sushi, sashimi, and robatayaki dishes with seasonal Alpine precision.

Start your morning with delicate tamago and green tea. End the day with wagyu, snow outside, and sake warming the evening. Every plate here is crafted, not just served.

Après-Ski, the Aman Way

Wellness spans two floors at Aman Le Mélézin. After the slopes, guests descend into a sanctuary of heat and silence: hydrotherapy pools, steam rooms, a tranquil swimming pool, and private treatment suites offering massage, recovery therapies, and rituals tailored to the alpine environment.

Whether you’re recovering from black-diamond runs or simply seeking quiet, the spa is where motion meets stillness.

Beyond the Chalet – Elevated Experiences

Aman Le Mélézin curates moments that go beyond the pistes. Float above the Alps in a hot-air balloon at sunrise. Snowshoe through pine forests at dusk. Enjoy a private dinner at Les Prés de la Croix, a postcard-perfect mountain chalet that turns every meal into a memory.

Every detail is handled. All you have to do is step into the snow.

For Celebrations, Or Just Because

The chateau atmosphere of Aman Le Mélézin lends itself beautifully to intimate gatherings, private events, or milestone celebrations. With a backdrop of snow-dusted firs and candlelit stonework, even the quietest moments feel ceremonial.

A Winter Return to the Slopes

Opening once again this 11 December, Aman Le Mélézin invites guests back to one of Europe’s most refined winter addresses. With direct piste access, Alpine charm, and world-class hospitality, it’s an invitation to ski hard, rest deeper, and remember what true winter luxury feels like.

Planning early is advised for the 2025/26 season.
