This was my first stay in Chamonix and it was such a great experience! The hotel was incredibly clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the pool was a fantastic bonus.

Lovely hotel, in easy reach of the main part of Chamonix and cable car etc. Fantastic views of Mont Blanc from both our room and the pool, which was clean and well maintained. Breakfast was amazing, with a huge choice of different foods.

We stayed here twice. Once before we started the Tour du Mont Blanc and after we finished. The views are great, the spa was nice, but our room had what looked like blood spots on the ceiling and on the bed sheet itself. The staff are 50/50 when it comes to friendliness so it depends on who you interact with and when. Cleanliness seems to be hit or miss. Service hit or miss. Food hit or miss. Very mid, 6-7.

Boutique type hotel with outside swimming pool, excellent staff and a great breakfast. Some maintenance issues such as several of the lockers in the spa area no longer lock. Car parking is exploitative, charging €25 for any vehicle when I was on a motorcycle that doesn’t need a parking bay - all other hotels I stayed at provide free parking for motorcycles except for two that charged €25 for cars and €10 for motorcycles.

The hotel in summer not recommended, no AC .. when asking for Van they said no more availble. Parking was full and it is not free you have to pay, It was noisy from outside we forced to open windows because hot weather and there were no vans. Miserable stay in the hotel. Breakfast was good with more choice, the bar and staff are great and helpful.

Perfect hotel for traveling with kids. Pool, trampoline and kids playroom. Only missing is ac (we even had a bedroom for the kids where you couldn’t open the window. The rooms didn’t have a small refrigerator witch would have been useful.

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean rooms. Small bathrooms with toilet separate from shower & sink. NO A/C. Room was hot with temps in the high 80’s but windows open did help. A fan in the room would have helped. About 15 min uphill walk from downtown & train station. Good location for Aiguille du Midi, Montenvers, & Brevent.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The hotel itself is amazing, the pool, the interesting carpets and the staff were all great and extremely helpful, definitely a 4 star service. The rooms however didn’t feel like they matched the hotel they felt small and dated with the windows having mold on them and heavily weathered wood. Overall would return

8/10 Very good

Excellent breakfast. A cool trendy place to stay. My son liked it. Premium room was a little small and dated but over clean and comfortable. Very hot but opening back windows gives noise and interruptions at all times of tonight as people smoke and hangout loudly back by the back entrance. That was frustrating.
