Scopri il tuo soggiorno a Chamonix-Mont-Blanc

Eravamo già stati qui un paio di volte nel 2012, entrando in Francia per andare verso nord e lo stesso al ritorno. Ci era piaciuto moltissimo, sia per la posizione che per i servizi, ristorante compreso. Quest'anno abbiamo fatto sosta con la stessa intenzione. Ma che cambiamento! Il Covid ha certamente lasciato un segno, negativo. Questo Hotel ha sempre una logistica stupenda perchè ci si arriva facilmente uscendo dall'autostrada, ha un parcheggio vasto ed una bella vista del ghiacciaio del monte bianco. Però, appena entrati l'impressione è stata di un generale abbandono. Abbiamo subito scoperto che il ristorante era chiuso per mancanza di personale, un problema questo perchè non ci sono alternative nei dintorni. Ci hanno suggerito farci portare da qualche ”take away” ordinando per telefono. Comunque la stanza era pulita, il letto comodo e grande, silenzioso l'ambiente in generale. Il bagno aveva tutto l'essenziale. La colazione al mattino era anch'essa essenziale e ci è stata sufficiente. Per la cena abbiamo preso l'auto e siamo andati a Chamonix, in mezzo ad una notevole confusione per la folla, ed abbiamo cenato nel Mercure Centre. L'impressione quindi è stata, almeno quando siamo andati noi, più di un Motel alla americana. Ci si arriva, si dorme e si riparte. L'essenziale.

Tutto è stato buono, tranne che il fatto che ha una scarsa ventilazione. Nessun fan o A/c si sente molto aperta all'interno. Tuttavia, il personale, la posizione e i servizi sono davvero buoni. Chiesto di cambiare la stanza a causa del rumore del treno e il manager era molto utile e carino per aiutare.

We booked at the very last minute, just a few hours before we checked in on the day of our stay via **********. Reasonable price. We checked in on Fri 06Jan2023 and stayed through Sunday 08Jan2023 in room #12. Room #12 is a handicapped room so there was lots of space. On Sunday 08Jan2023 at check out we decided to stay one more night here but needed to switch rooms, our second room was #19, which had a great view. At check in Andrea was extremely helpful, without being asked she told us the bus schedule and marked everything on a map for us. She was very patient with us and answered all of our questions. We also ate at the restaurant at the hotel which was some of the best food we had during our time in Chamonix. The bartender/server Florin was phenomenal - genuinely kind, helpful and overall a wonderful human. He made our experience so good that we stayed the extra night at the hotel. Florin and Andrea made us feel at home, and were so kind. They gave us great advice on what to do in the area. The food at the hotel was amazing, during our stay we tried and LOVED everything. - Steamed mussels, Mussels tomatoes, lemon juice, chili white wine , parsley - Baked local Cheeses, From age des Clarines backed with white wine, served with boiled potatoes, local cured ham, salami, tomatoes and salad/ - Tartiflettes, Potatoes, lardons, onions, reblochon cheese, and cream. Served with a salad. ** Tartiflettes is a dish that originates from this area, so it was nice to try something traditional. It was my favorite from our trip. - Pasta carbonara - Pizza, Piccante, Sausage tomatoes, mozzarella, mix des polvrons, chorizo, hailer de Basslilic This hotel is located outside the downtown area, its easily accessible via a walking path or short bus ride. It has great views and access to outdoor activities. Also less than 5 minute walk to ski/ snowboard lift. Rooms were clean, good storage, comfortable beds, all the usual hotel stuff. But what really sets this place apart is the staff. We are so thankful that we stumbled upon this little gem

Penso che a Shamony non ci sia questo tipo di hotel a questo prezzo.Il personale è molto amichevole e la stanza è molto pulita.La rete wireless non ha pressione.Un po'inconveniente, perché è lontano dal centro della città e non c'è negozio di sci vicino. Ma non c'è problema, perché la stazione di autobus è a un minuto a piedi dall'hotel.

This is a GEM and so is Chamonix!!! Chamonix is in a narrow glacial valley directly below Mont Blanc (and you can easily see Mont Blanc and many of the alpine peaks easily and completely visible from the town). On the mountainside opposite Mont Blanc is the Auberge. Originally, we wanted to stay in town near the lift to Aiguille du Midi. Glad we did not. Chamonix is a busy tourist town, and the lift is also busy. Auberge du Bois Prin likely has the BEST VIEW in all of Chamonix of the Mont Blanc Range and peak. All its rooms face the mountain peaks. It has a dozen rooms. It looks like an alpine chalet, flower boxes and all – beautiful. Inside is clean, modern and mountain rustic. The room was very, very spacious as was the bathroom. Rustic, expensive looking. Beds are very comfortable. Windows looked out to the alps. From my bed I would go to sleep looking directly at Mont Blanc. We also had a balcony looking toward the alps. What more could you want!!! There was one problem, however, there is no air conditioning. Because the windows do not have screens, we had a choice between mosquitoes (yes, there are alpine mosquitoes) or overheating. The hotel was quick to provide a fan which helped greatly. Was surprised that in the morning when I stepped onto the balcony it was cold despite the overheated room. There is an elevator in the hotel to assist with luggage. Breakfast was served on an outdoor deck and in a nice indoor space. Everything was fresh and great but how can you go wrong with continuing a view of the alps and Mont Blanc. The hotel staff and serving staff in the restaurant were more than outstanding. The restaurant is a Michelin star rated restaurant for dinner. The town buzzes with tourists, a variety of restaurants, bakeries and ice cream stands and so much more. Parking is just enough for those staying at the hotel (and it is free). One can walk into town by way of steep streets. A mile or less. One more thing; the photos of the hotel placed by management DO LOOK EXACTLY LIKE what you get - unreal beautiful!

Nice hotel with good service. Super central. We came to escape the heat wave with family, but with no air conditioning, it was still pretty warm… I booked on the telephone (in French) and reserved for adults and children, specifically because the hotel has a pool. I asked about the pool and Spa hours too. WARNING: they did NOT tell me on the phone that children are not allowed in the pool and spa - (only 1030-1230) - but since checkout is at 11, that means basically not at all if you only stay one night. I understand the rules, and the reason why they don’t want a noisy spa, but they should have made this VERY clear up front. So recommend this hotel for adults only. Families with children should stay somewhere else.

Ci sono tutti gli utensili di cucina, soddisfano la Cina. L'hotel è molto vicino alla stazione di autobus. Cammino per cinque minuti. Il biglietto di autobus è più costoso di quello attualmente.

Siamo stati solo una notte e porremo rimedio tornando l'anno prossimo! Abbiamo trovato un posto bellissimo, in pieno centro, con una vista spettacolare, camere e spazi comuni molto belli e curati in ogni dettaglio e, soprattutto, delle persone eccezionali ad accoglierci e farci sentire a casa, coccolati e assistiti in ogni nostra piccola esigenza. Al check in ci ha accolto Susanna che ci ha accompagnato dal parcheggio (proprio sotto l'hotel, comodissimo) fino alla camera, dandoci tutte le informazioni e le spiegazioni di cui avevamo bisogno. L'hotel non ha ristorante, quindi viene proposta una lista di ristoranti raggiungibili a piedi, con scelte in base al tipo di cucina e alla distanza. La colazione è disponibile in hotel ed è ottima, con scelte varie di ogni tipologia e soprattutto la possibilità di sedersi in giardino e sorseggiare un caffè ammirando la cima innevata del monte Bianco e i suoi ghiacciai scintillanti. Noi avevamo una stanza con vista sulla cima del Brévent e sul corso pedonale di Chamonix. Nonostante la strada sia sempre affollata, anche a tarda sera, la camera era comunque silenziosa e comoda, oltre che molto bella e luminosa. Molto apprezzabile anche la piccola piscina interna con saune e area relax. Sia la cabinovia di Planpraz che quella de l’Aiguille du Midi sono raggiungibili a piedi, così come qualsiasi ristorante o negozio/servizio in Chamonix.

My stay at The Les Grands Montets was exceptional. The hotel is decor is in a quintessential Alpine style, which made it feel super warm and cozy. It felt more like I was coming home, instead of staying in a hotel! I was always warmly greeted by reception, and all of the staff I interacted with were extremely welcoming and kind. They were ready to help with any questions I had regarding buses to trains to walks and restaurants. They truly went above and beyond to ensure my stay was as perfect as could be. My room was a large chalet style with a balcony facing the Mont Blanc mountain range. I took some time to make sure I enjoyed the fresh mountain air while being mesmerized by the beautiful winter wonderland views. There is ample closet space and the bathroom is large with good storage. The only downside was that my bed was a lot more firm than I am used to, but I used an extra duvet and it solved the issue decently. I did not come here to ski, but there is the Les Grands Montets ski lift/slopes right behind the hotel, so ultra convenient for those hitting the slopes. The town of Argentière is about a 10-15 min walk with some great cafes, supermarket, sports shops, and the convenient train that runs into the center of Chamonix. Overall, I had a great experience at The Les Grands Montet and I would highly recommend this charming and hospitable hotel if you are visiting Chamonix Mont-Blanc!
