Le Bel Air Restaurant

Renowned and popular restaurant at the top of the l'Ariondaz gondola

Location
Courchevel 1650

An on the piste restaurant above 1650. Right outside the top of the Ariondaz bubble, this place is an institution in Courchevel.

Run by the long term owner, Christophe Gormier, it’s so accessible by skiers and pedestrians alike that, even with 300 seats by 10:00 every day (and I really do mean every day of the season) it’s fully booked.

They serve a daily Plat du Jour and also omelettes, great salads, steaks and Savoyard dishes. They even have a snack menu with sandwiches and paninis for a quick bite on the terrace.

Also open in summer, it has such a beautiful setting and great food, with excellent views and log fires it isn't hard to see why this restaurant is so popular.
