THREE VALLEYS
Mountain restaurants
Le Bel Air (Courchevel 1650)

Located on the Bellecote piste, this hotel is offering a well-priced and apparently delicious buffet lunch in 11-12. Sit by the log fire inside, or on the sunny terrace outside. One of our guests proposed to his girlfriend here in Jan 2012! (She said yes!) Tel + 33 4 79 08 02 59
