Four Seasons announced the opening of its first mountain resort in France, just in time for the 2018 winter ski season, in the Haute-Savoie region of the Alps.

The Four Seasons Hotel Megève is part of a larger project in partnership with luxury hospitality group Edmond de Rothschild Heritage. In addition to the construction of Europe’s first luxury mountain resort, the project will also include the conversion of a collection of traditional chalets in the heart of the medieval Mont d’Arbois Village.

The chalets will offer guests another great option in the heart of the historic ski village. The Mont d’Arbois village features several Michelin-star restaurants, historic Alpine architecture and charming cobblestone streets, as well as quick and easy access to the slopes.

The Haute-Savoie alpine range is a premier ski destination, offering more than 130 groomed Alpine runs, terrific snowfall and ideal terrain quality. The resort will offer a wide array of winter sports and activities including heli-skiing, dog sledding and glacier snowshoeing. In the spring, visitors can enjoy the village’s colorful gardens and fantastic hiking. The Four Seasons will also manage the 18-hole Golf du Mont D’Arbois course, designed by three-time British Open champion Sir Henry Cotton.

The 55-room Four Seasons Megève, set among the picturesque peaks of the Haute-Savoie range, will face Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in the Alps. In addition to its ideal location, hotel visitors can expect all of the premium services and amenities for which Four Seasons is known.

Allen Smith, president and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, said, “Megève’s mix of Alpine charm and sophistication makes it a popular destination among luxury travelers both from within Europe and further abroad, and we look forward to welcoming Four Seasons guests to discover the beauty of Megève year-round.”

The new hotel will mark Four Season’s third destination in France and the fifth ski destination in the company’s global portfolio.
