The 10 best hotels in Chamonix, France

August 7, 2022 Natalie Tallman

As host of the first Winter Olympics in 1924, Chamonix will always have a place in the history books. Its main attractions are Mont-Blanc (Western Europe's tallest mountain) and the many ski areas that face the Chamonix Valley. Steep slopes and extreme weather conditions suit advanced skiers best, but there are also runs for beginners. Just make sure everyone in your party knows a green circle from a black diamond. Oh, and another note for the history books—Pierce Brosnan was here (filming a James Bond movie, The World Is Not Enough).

Hotel facilities OK, Restaurant terrible!

Reviewed By BROPD

Staff here really are going through the motions. Maybe they're looking forward to the end of the season but they could not have cared less. The hotel side was OK although the staff were very uninterested in us. The restaurant however, oh my goodness! The staff were rude, disinterested and completely unprofessional. The food was even worse as it was barely edible and was cold and stale. This place needs to be avoided.

Amazing hotel with little treats

Reviewed By Yifta

The hotel is located right next to the cable car to the Aiguille du Midi, a 2-minute walk from the center of Chamonix. The hotel staff provides excellent service. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the shower is pleasant and everything is well designed. Breakfast was very good. There is a small gym open 24 hours a day. The spa area was pleasant but was crowded, the water in the pool was a bit cold for my taste. The hotel offers small treats such as hot and cold drinks throughout the day, free fruit, small sweets, popcorn - all the things that make the place fun. Definitely recommend

Reviewed By Compass25775729594

Such a lovely stay! The staff we all so friendly and helpful and we enjoyed the spa, games in the bar, and outside area when the sun shone. Had an amazing burger in the restaurant and the breakfast selection was good. Great location, right by the airport bus transfers and a short walk to the bars/restaurants and tourist attractions. Loved the decor. Room was comfortable and spotless, though we couldn’t have our window open because of road noise and the room was quite hot but the hotel gave us a fan which helped. No ventilation in the bathroom/toilet could be a problem for some but we coped! Would definitely recommend!

Hotel booked a party with loud music until 2:00am above our room

Reviewed By melhay01

It’s 1:20am and a party with loud music is still going on. We have had no sleep! When we called the front desk we were told a private party booked a room above us and are allowed to play their loud dance music until 2;00am and there was nothing they could do about it! I would highly recommend NOT staying in this hote if you plan to sleep.

We had a fabulous return visit after a two year delay due to the pandemic. This is a lovely hotel and is brilliantly located near the Grands Montets ski lift station. We had a Mountain Spirit room that was absolutely lovely. The most outstanding feature of our visit was the helpfulness of the lovely people on reception. They arranged our lift passes and made all of our dinner reservations and nothing was too much trouble.
