In the latest season of Netflix show Emily in Paris, Emily trades Parisian streets for snowy peaks! The famous French resort of Megève takes centre stage with chic ski scenes and alpine glamour after the chic resort, renowned for its art of Art de Vivre and prestige, caught the production team’s eye. It appears in an episode of season 4 - Part 2 of the hit show, now streaming on Netflix. One of the episodes of "Emily in Paris" was filmed last March in the Haute Savoie village of Megève. The three-day shoot was organised in the utmost secrecy. Episode six of Season four features a mountain getaway, allowing subscribers worldwide to follow the adventures of the most French of Americans at altitude, in elegant Megève. The cameras were set up around the village's iconic spots including the village square, the Mont d’Arbois ski area, the Idéal 1850 restaurant (Edmond de Rothschild Heritage/Four Seasons Megève Collection) and at Chalet des Fermes de Marie (Maisons & Hôtels Sibuet). So these are all now places for "Emily in Paris" fans to come visit. During the three days of filming, the schedule was meticulously planned: one day filming on the slopes, one day in a chalet, and another in the village. The Film crew was made up of more than 120 people, representing many different professions. Numerous local shopkeepers, hoteliers, restaurateurs, and activity providers in Megève took part in this experience. The entire local ecosystem was mobilised, including the Four Seasons Hotel Megève, the ski lifts, the ESF (French Ski School), Les Fermes de Marie, L'Idéal 1850, L'Epicerie Noémie and the famous horse-drawn carriages of Megève. A total of 116 extras (including stand-ins) participated in this experience. To ensure the lead actress's safety, Lily Collins had a double for the ski scenes. It seems that there were four doubles on standby for Emily. "The director of the series was looking for one of the most beautiful views of Megève. The Idéal 1850 restaurant, with its panoramic view of the entire Megève valley and Mont Blanc, was an obvious choice. We were able to provide a private room for the extras and crew to settle in during the filming of the slope scenes. The two main actors of the series also enjoyed the Idéal Suite, a secluded suite perched upstairs in the restaurant, where they could rest between scenes” said Emilie Pignol, Sales and Marketing Director, Four Seasons Megève Collection, who added, “Our establishment was kept exactly as it is for our clients during filming. The building, acquired in the 1960s, has retained the soul of an authentic mountain pasture with a touch of modernity. It took about ten takes to film the scene.” The Four Seasons Hotel Megève have now launched a special Emily in Paris holiday offer described thus: Spend an unforgettable night in the privacy of the Suite Idéal, an exclusive retreat at the top of Mont d’Arbois facing Mont Blanc and accessible only by ski lift with its new "A Night Above the Clouds" offer. In this exquisite environment, the "A Night Above the Clouds" package offers a magical one-night escape in the Suite Idéal. Starting at 3pm, guests will embark on a cable ride, escorted by a personal assistant. Upon arrival, a bottle of champagne awaits to toast as the sun sets over Mont Blanc. A dinner featuring Savoyard specialties, paired with French wines selected by sommelier Samy Sbiti, completes the evening. The following morning, guests will have the unique privilege of being the first to ski on freshly fallen powder. Included in the newly launched offer, a charming carriage ride through Megève’s picturesque streets—mirroring a scene from the popular series—will add a touch of magic to an unforgettable stay. images copyright of Commune de Megève
