Demolition of Hotel Courcheneige moves closer…

Rather like the ski lift from Bozel, the demolition and re-construction of Hotel Courcheneige has been talked about for years.

This planning review document (signed in London a couple of weeks ago we noted) looks to move things along and confirms that the reconstruction will upgrade the hotel from a 3 star to a 4 star in typical Courchevel planning style.

Planing docs and environmental impacts go back to 2011 and this looks like a further review with a decision due on this one by 26 June 2018.

The Courcheneige and La Tania Bean Bag Corner used to be THE place in 1850 for reasonably priced food and drink until the Aussie owners moved to Hôtel La Pomme de Pin (keeping the reasonable prices). Was €9 a pint this season although there are Seasonnaire discounts now – can’t see it getting any cheaper when it become a 4 star!

Seems quite a strange strategy considering all the refurb work they’ve done on the place in the last couple of years mind…
