The 5 Best Luxury Chalets in Alpe d'Huez

Five exceptional chalets in Alpe d'Huez, chosen for their architecture, their wellness spaces and their direct access to the slopes.

Updated 11 November 2026

Alpe d'Huez, the island in the sun

Before it became a resort, Alpe d'Huez was just a hamlet of some thirty chalets, lived in during the summer grazing season and asleep under the snow all winter. From the 1930s the resort grew without any master plan, at 1860m, on a sunny shelf of the Grandes Rousses known as the island in the sun. Our five chalets sit between 1819m and 1859m, right by the slopes.

Around it, the Grand Domaine links five resorts across 250km of slopes. From the Pic Blanc, at 3330m, the Sarenne runs 16km down to 1510m, a 1820m vertical drop: the lift company bills it as the longest black run in Europe.

In the heart of the resort, the Notre-Dame-des-Neiges church, designed by the architect Jean Marol, houses an organ shaped like a hand. In summer the Alpe changes season but not its legend: its 21 hairpin bends, climbed by the champions of the Tour de France, are among the most famous ascents in cycling.

Our agents have chosen five chalets worthy of the setting, nearly all of them ski in, ski out, from the Bergers piste to the Rond-point des pistes.
