The towns nestled in the nooks and crannies of Europe’s legendary mountain range may be age-old, but this year the hotels will be totally fresh. So, too, in the high-altitude villages of the American and Canadian West, where five-star hotels are upping the ante in some very popular destinations—some of which haven’t yet laid claim to true luxury accommodations. Here are the coziest new places to sleep this winter, no matter which side of the Atlantic you choose to ski.

Right at the base of Teton Village is the latest luxury proposition from a town that’s full of them. Caldera House functions partially as hotel and partially as a members-only ski club where the town’s who’s who can benefit from such amenities as souped-up ski lockers and slope-side valets (all available to hotel guests, too). Whether you’re soaking in a Japanese bathtub in one of the rooms or clinking glasses of après ski bubbly on the hotel terrace—where there’s a fur throw for every seat back—it’s among the poshest places in town. Rooms from $1,250.
