April 14, 2025

The Top Luxury Ski Resorts in Europe You Need to Visit

Europe is home to some of the most luxurious ski resorts in the world, offering not just snow but style, comfort, and unforgettable mountain experiences. If you’re searching for luxury ski resorts where impeccable service and exceptional slopes meet, this guide will help you discover destinations you’ll want to return to year after year.


Courchevel, France

Courchevel is synonymous with luxury skiing in Europe. Part of the vast Three Valleys ski area, it offers beautifully groomed pistes, Michelin-starred dining, and high-end hotels. The resort’s Courchevel 1850 area is where you’ll find the finest chalets and five-star properties.

One standout is Cheval Blanc Courchevel, an intimate and opulent hotel with ski-in, ski-out access. Rooms are elegantly designed, and the spa offers treatments perfect after a day on the slopes.

Looking for an exclusive offer? At Awake & Wander, we have a range of seasonal offers available for Courchevel luxury stays. Speak to us to learn more about current packages.


St. Moritz, Switzerland


St. Moritz is the birthplace of winter tourism, and it still leads when it comes to style. Known for its champagne climate and glamorous clientele, it combines world-class skiing with chic boutiques and lively après-ski.

A favourite hotel here is Badrutt’s Palace Hotel, which has been hosting royalty and celebrities since 1896. With breathtaking lake views and impeccable service, it remains a favourite among discerning travellers.

We often have exclusive packages for St. Moritz at Awake & Wander. Ask about our current offers to experience this timeless luxury.


Verbier, Switzerland


Verbier attracts those who enjoy a mix of challenging skiing and lively nightlife. It’s perfect for advanced skiers looking to tackle off-piste runs and enjoy high-end chalets and gourmet restaurants.

At Awake & Wander, we regularly update our Verbier offers, so do get in touch to see what’s available when you’re ready to book.


Lech & Zürs, Austria


Lech & Zürs are known for charm and quiet elegance. Part of Austria’s Arlberg region, they’re ideal for skiers who prefer wide, uncrowded slopes paired with refined hotels.

The Hotel Aurelio Lech stands out with its boutique feel, private chauffeur service, and exquisite spa facilities.

We recommend Le K2 Chogori, a sleek property offering understated luxury and fine dining.

Our team can guide you through our Val d’Isère offers, tailored to help you make the most of this Alpine gem.


Megève, France


Megève brings old-world charm to modern luxury skiing. Its cobbled streets and horse-drawn sleighs create a romantic atmosphere alongside premium ski slopes.

Les Fermes de Marie is a collection of rustic yet luxurious chalets with cosy interiors and exceptional service.

World-Class Skiing at Your Doorstep


The slopes around St. Moritz cater to every level. From beginner-friendly nursery slopes to challenging off-piste routes, the variety keeps skiers and snowboarders engaged.


Badrutt’s Palace offers a ski concierge, heated ski storage, and private transfers to the lifts. Lessons and equipment hire can be arranged on request. All are handled with the ease and polish you’d expect from a top-tier resort.


What makes luxury ski holidays here special is the freedom. You can hit the slopes all morning, relax in a spa all afternoon, and dine in elegance by nightfall.


Wellness & Spa: Alpine Serenity


After a day on the pistes, unwind in the Palace Wellness spa. Facilities include an indoor infinity pool with panoramic views, sauna, steam baths, ice room, and a fitness studio.


Treatments use Swiss luxury brands like La Prairie and include massages, facials, and body rituals. There’s even a hair salon on site.


For families, the hotel’s dedicated children’s wellness offerings ensure everyone gets their share of rest and rejuvenation.
