Father Christmas in Megève

 The beautifully cobbled alpine streets twinkle with thousands of fairy lights, the rich scent of traditional mulled wine fills the mountain air, and a massive, iconic Christmas tree illuminates the historic village square. At Stanford Skiing, we go the extra mile to transform your holiday week into a truly magical, stress-free alpine celebration.

Making your Christmas special

  • Festive village magic: We time our stays so you can experience the stunning torchlit descents and magical parades in the center of Megève.
  • Father Christmas visits: Perfect for families, children can meet Santa and his elves right in the heart of the village square before they depart on Christmas Eve.
  • Obligatory fancy dress skiing: On Christmas Day, our entire team heads out for a group ski. Guests are warmly invited to hit the slopes with us, but fancy dress is 100% mandatory!
  • Festive catering: For those staying in our catered chalets, you can skip the hassle of cooking and instead enjoy all the popular festive dishes and trimmings lovingly prepared for you by our talented chefs.

Festive magic that won't break the bank

A magical holiday in the French Alps doesn't have to cost a fortune. We take immense pride in offering some of the best value ski chalets and apartments in Megève, giving you world-class skiing, uncrowded pistes, and unparalleled alpine charm without the luxury price tag.

A warm alpine welcome for solo skiers

If you are a solo skier at a loose end, you don't have to spend Christmas week alone. We would love to welcome you into our Stanford family for a week of great snow, shared meals, and fantastic company.

While single supplements across the travel industry are frequently as high as an additional 75%, we do things differently at Christmas. We are completely waiving the single supplement for Christmas week stays at our cozy Chalet Hotel Sylvana.

  • The deal: Spend your holiday week at the friendly, centrally located Chalet Hotel Sylvana.
  • The price: Just £770 per person with absolutely zero single supplement fees.
  • The date: Valid for the full week of the 20th - 27th December 2026.
