MORZINE / FRANCE / MARCH 2027

Hotel Coutettaz.

An old Morzine manor with eleven rooms, evenings around the fire and a hotel shuttle to the slopes. It’s my base for an upcoming trip to the Portes du Soleil.

01 / THE STAY AT A GLANCE

11 roomsIndividually designed, from the former workshop to a garden hideaway.
MorzineAbout five minutes on foot from the centre, according to the hotel.

02 / SKIING FROM MORZINE

Two ways into the mountains.

Start at Pléney for the local Morzine–Les Gets slopes, or head towards Avoriaz to explore more of the Portes du Soleil. Pick your first lift before arranging the morning shuttle, especially if you’re meeting a lesson or hiring skis.

The hotel says it can arrange ski passes and equipment delivery. Its winter package includes morning and afternoon trips to the slopes. Check which drop-off points and times apply to your stay.

Rooms and evenings in.

04 / WHAT I’LL BE LOOKING AT

My March visit.

I’ll see how easily I can get from the hotel to the lifts, how the shuttle fits around a day on snow and what it’s like to come back for dinner. I’ll share my own impressions after the trip.
