    A lovely place to stay in Chamonix

    I wish breakfast was included, because its very tasty!

    Really nice location, lovely balcony overlooking the river. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful, with lots of great suggestions. The facilities are great and the free bikes in the summer are fantastic. The free tea/coffee and snacks throughout the day are also great. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.

    Floor in our room had some damage that had to be navigated carefully.

    Great location, fun and cozy gathering areas. Sauna and small workout room were appreciated. Views of the mountains were amazing.

    We liked everything.

    We were in room 45, which we highly recommend. It's on the 3rd floor, corner room, overlooking the river. The room was clean and quiet (except for the river), and had a fantastic view. Staff is excellent and breakfast was very good.

    More lighting in the hallways would be nice, but that's me reaching for some feedback. No air conditioning, and would have loved a fan at night.

    Clean and comfortable hotel, friendly staff, great breakfast, right in the heart of Chamonix and walking distance to everything.

    No fridge :( so we put our beer outside to get it cold 😂

    Great location. Great view of course. Little extras like free tea and coffee (good stuff) sparkling water, banana bread. Awesome sitting areas inside and out

    A fridge would be quite useful in the room.

    Absolutely everything was outstanding. The staff were among the kindest I've ever encountered. When my partner fell ill, one of the staff members went the extra mile by bringing equipment from their own home. They were exceptionally helpful and caring. I would recommend them without hesitation, 10/10. Tea and coffee are available in the lobby. There is also a beautiful lounge area where one may enjoy a beverage. The quality of the wine far exceeds the price.

    Nothing much but a bit more hot food for breakfast would be great ie fried eggs. Also the boiled eggs were cold. It would be nice if they could be warm.

    Its location. We were given a room with Mountain View and the stream flowing outside. We had a balcony too. Fantastic views from the balcony. The hotel is a minute away from the shops and restaurants. The hotel staff is friendly and helpful. They always greeted us with a smile and were happy to help and answer most of our questions. It offers free hot drinks and also has a water cooler with squash bottles there so you could make a cold drink as well. Nice seating downstairs with a pool table. There is a room for storage of the ski gear ie skis, boots, helmets and poles. They also offer free bicycles to be taken for rides. The sauna is available and needs to be booked for an hours slot. There is a small fitness area adjacent to it. It’s just 2-3minutes away from the Brevent cable car to the ski resort. The room was nice as well (a bit tired but not too much of a bother). Plenty of parking space available. The breakfast room is also reasonably big and not much queuing is needed. The breakfast room staff are also brilliant. The view from the breakfast room is also fantastic. There are different teas available to try. There is a lift too.
