La Sivolière Courchevel
Contemporary Alpine chalet; warm and intimate, family-oriented luxury without ostentation. Locally called Courchevel's 'best-kept secret'.
Afternoon tea (3:30–6pm daily) is complimentary and genuinely excellent — crêpes and hot chocolate made in front of you.
Why It Matters
One of the very few ski-in/ski-out hotels in Courchevel 1850 with a genuinely familial, non-corporate atmosphere. The hotel runs all the way down to a dedicated kids' welcome programme (Mini Sivo), a dog-sitting service, complimentary village shuttles, a full-service spa with Scentiana cosmetics, and seasonal guest-chef dinners at La Table de Madame. It holds Family Plus certification and awards from Traveller Made and Atout France.
La Sivolière is a 35-room, five-star ski-in/ski-out chalet hotel sitting just outside the centre of Courchevel 1850, tucked into the fir trees alongside the Dou du Midi slope. The vibe is a deliberately quieter alternative to Courchevel's flashier palaces: think velvet-lined armchairs, a crackling fireplace, Diptyque toiletries, and afternoon crêpes served to guests fresh off the slopes. Renovated by British interior designer Sara Copeland, it reads more like a well-run private home than a hotel — and that's entirely the point.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Family Junior Suite
Designed for two adults and two kids. The bunk beds sit in the living-room area so parents get some semblance of their own space. Bathroom has both shower and bathtub. Kids get their own Mini Sivo welcome kit (slippers, bathrobes, their own restaurant menu). Accessible version available.
Double bed + built-in bunk beds · 35 sqm
One-Bedroom Prestige Suite
The step up from the Superior Suite adds 10 m² and a more spacious separate living area. Same hammam shower and bathtub combo in the bathroom, same two-toilet configuration. Good views, Diptyque throughout, and a courtesy tray for morning coffee before anyone else is awake.
King-size bed · 50 sqmPrestige Room
More space than the Superior, with a separate sitting area and parquet flooring. The velvet-lined armchair next to the window is genuinely comfortable for a post-ski read. Available with one double or two twin beds — flexible for solo travellers or sharing couples who prefer their own bed. Full bathtub standard.
Double or twin beds · 30 sqm
Superior Room
The entry-level room at La Sivolière, but still well-appointed. At 22 m², they are compact — honest about that — but smartly done with Sara Copeland's contemporary woodwork, soft cushions, and either a bathtub or shower. Views are either village or forest. Diptyque toiletries throughout.
Double bed · 22 sqmSuperior Suite
One-bedroom suite with a fully separate living room. The bathroom has both a hammam shower and a deep bathtub, plus two toilets — rare in a 40 m² footprint. Good for couples who want proper suite space without going to the larger Prestige tier.
King-size bed · 40 sqmThree-Bedroom Apartment
A full duplex apartment sleeping up to six. The layout includes three bedrooms (each with its own bathroom), two living areas, a fully equipped kitchen, and a dining room — plus a wood-burning fireplace. This is the closest thing to renting a private chalet while still having hotel services. Groups of friends or multi-generational families are the obvious target.
King-size bed (master) + two further bedrooms · 145 sqmTwo-Bedroom Family Suite
A 90 m² suite that genuinely works for families. The standout feature is the large living room with a working fireplace and velvet corner sofa — it's the kind of space where everyone actually gathers. Two bathrooms (one with bathtub and hammam shower, one shower room) and two separate toilets mean no morning queuing.
