Le Strato opens its doors again in Courchevel on 5 December, welcoming guests back to its considered blend of contemporary ease and alpine tradition. The hotel sits high above the valley floor, commanding views across snow laden peaks and the village nestled below, with the kind of quiet command that comes from knowing exactly where it belongs.
The interiors speak to a particular restraint. Exposed timber frames the ceilings with undyed larch beams running the length of living spaces, their warm grain catching soft light. A bedroom pairs this natural vocabulary with charcoal upholstery and crisp linens, while a companion sitting area introduces a sculptural red chair that speaks without shouting. The palette moves between greys, whites and natural wood tones, each material chosen for its texture as much as its colour.
The bathrooms carry the same philosophy: soft sage green mosaic tiles line the walls, their subtle pattern creating depth without decoration. A freestanding white bath sits as a sculptural object; a timber ladder leans nearby, functional and warm. These are spaces designed for the particular rhythm of mountain time: long mornings, unhurried bathing, the kind of comfort that comes from simplicity well executed.
From the balconies, the view dominates. Snow caps the mountains; the forest rises in dark silhouette; the light arrives pale and clear across the valley. This is what guests return to, season after season. Le Strato, Courchevel, reopens 5 December.
