The best accommodations Chamonix-Mont Blanc

In the heart of Chamonix, just steps from the statue of Jacques Balmat, it is difficult to miss the hotel of the White Valley. Its four-storey pink building, which regulates Mont Blanc, is proudly located on the edge of the river Arve. The old mill at the beginning of the th century was converted successfully into a cosy hotel but without frills. The decoration, in the purest mountain style, does not lack charm and will appreciate the special attention of the woodwork in the rooms, completely renovated in 2013. They have a whole view - the Saussure Square, the river De, the Brévent… Less than a room with a mezzanine on the fourth floor and a view of Mont Blanc. Originality of the site: the select O'Byrne pub attached to the hotel, where you will take your breakfast before it opens to the public in the afternoon to enjoy a wide choice of draught beers, and get animated live music at night. A good address, well placed, at the right price. 

Who says Chamonix says forced by the Sea of Ice! And also discover alpine pastures, waterfalls, crafts, high mountain excursions, children's climbing. You will be offered sports activities of energetic water, mountain biking, paragliding, horse riding, hiking in trees, ice skating, summer toboggan, tennis, golf (18 holes 800 m), skate park, squash, bowling, wildlife park. Situated in high altitude (1050 m/3842 m), this holiday village allows you to access the fabulous panorama of Mont Blanc. And after hiking, place the green games and quiz on the region, cabaret, humor, theatre, games or films. And of course the inevitable wiggle on the dance track!

In the district of Bossons, stuck between the glacier of the same name and that of Taconna, the campsite of Les Deux Glaciers offers a panoramic view of Mont-Blanc and the beautiful Aiguilles Rouges massif. Clean and well-spaced locations, next to a bus stop that leads you straight into the city, yet close (3km). Heated toilet blocks and catering service - the Le Glaçon restaurant is open all year long. In July and August, snacks on the site as well as a family welcome complete the picture. A good alternative to hotel accomodation.

In a beautiful island of greenery, at the entrance of Chamonix and within walking distance to the centre, this high-altitude and human-sized campsite enjoys the peace and the many trees of the site. Locations face the Mont-Blanc massif and its facilities are very well-maintained. The campsite also offers four small quaint chalets of a surface area of 35 m² for rent, with its covered terrace and a small private garden in summer and in winter (on request), for 2 to 6 people. A pleasant site, in the valley, at the foot of the Aiguille du Midi with view of the Glacier des Bossons. You walk pleasantly for 15 minutes to go to the downtown. A nice alternative to the expensive hotel accommodation and residence of the town centre.

In a residential area, facing the Mont Blanc massif in the south, a nice traditional Savoyard chalet of dark wood with flowery balconies. From the pretty garden, you can enjoy an independent entrance on the ground floor where you can find simple guest rooms, good value for money. On the floor, the pleasant dining room of blond wood is a welcoming place for guests to enjoy breakfast or evening, with a peaceful fireplace. The departure for the Aiguille needle is only metres away! Take a kilometre to go to the centre of Chamonix.

An unusual experience on the roof of Europe! Set in the Mont-Blanc massif, on the magnificent site of Montenvers, a superb high-altitude refuge hotel: Snow Terminal of the Savoyard group Sibuet. A few steps from the Mer de Glace, the great historic hotel of 1880 has been transformed into a contemporary hotel that does not deny anything of the past. Twenty rooms, suites and dormitories pay tribute to the history of the Montenvers site and the Mer de Glace that made Chamonix famous in the 19th century. Opened in July 2017, Terminal neige successfully follows the codes of the historic Montenvers refuge, while providing the great comfort necessary to attract an international clientele. Once past the entrance of the granite building with its sober facade, pierced by small windows with red and white shutters giving a view of either the Mer de Glace or the Drus or the Grandes Jorasses, the dark wood decoration energized by a few red touches, symbol of the Savoyard flag, the objects found reminding us of the end of the 19th century and the adventure trips, as well as the warm tones of the flannel fabrics, and leather, make the visitor succumb. We plunge into another time for an extraordinary journey, an unprecedented adventure. In the area, the Refuge du Montenvers restaurant with its mountain cuisine offers a delicious meal of poultry on a spit or a traditional fondue

Yesterday a barn, today a beautiful hotel, completely renovated from the ground to the ceiling and in the smallest detail in an environmental approach. Friendliness, authenticity and comfort are the watchwords of this chic and traditional hotel at a time. The!, the Personnalisée, the Drus, the Drus, the Aiguille, the Drus, the Drus and the Aiguille are all very close to the heart of Chamonix. The traditional decoration with its wood and white bedding, and the white one, cleverly integrates the flat screen of which you can still take the view. The bathrooms are looking and perfectly equipped. A small amount on the terrace or in the garden in the summer - with a jacuzzi planted right towards Mont Blanc! - or in the living room at the corner of kranichbar wood fire; there is no doubt, we feel good. The spacious dining room which welcomes us for breakfast stays in the same tones as the rooms: wood colour, nappée of cream and red keys. There is no doubt that we are pleasantly located in the calm and comfort of a beautiful establishment, which we welcome the exemplary renovation.

It is recognized in its facade, which is a wall fresco in honor of a couple of Chamonians, and its blue shutters. Its toponymic name of "lanchers" means a mountain steep mountain corridor. There is nothing like this in the small hamlet of the Praz, five minutes walking from Chamonix by walking along the Arve, where you rediscover the mountain and conviviality by enjoying the joys of skiing and hiking. The Flégère cable car is 450 meters away. This charming family-run establishment is held by a friendly Franco-English couple, supported by a dynamic team. Inside the hotel you will enjoy comfortable and carefully furnished rooms, renovated in 2014 and some built in 2011 in the adjacent extension. If possible, one can be booked with a balcony directly on Mont Blanc. The lounge bar, but also the «après-ski» snack - sweet and hot drinks - relax in the sauna, and, of course, the Rendez-vous restaurant which offers French tradition cuisine… a good address, both simple and warm, just a few steps from Chamonix golf course.

Atypical! In front of the cable car station to reach the top of the aiguille du Midi, an elegant hotel that will not fail to attract an international clientele to the assault of the mythical Mont-Blanc. L'Héliopic is organized around a 500 ^m2 spa, in two four-storey buildings that look like large chalets. The design is inspired by the 60's with a predominance of stone and wood but also warm colours and comfortable materials for a cosy atmosphere. The decoration of the rooms gives pride of place to natural and cosy fabrics, with relaxing tones for a comforting stay. The property is original, with its building overlooking a ground floor with 1,800 ^{m2 of} shops. Two restaurants - one of which offers an inventive cuisine based on fresh and quality products: Akashon, run by chef Julien Binet -, 102 rooms from 20 to 40 ^m2, four seminar rooms, a swimming pool, a hammam, an ice cave and a sauna, a relaxation area with fireplace, a ski shop, a reception point for high mountain guides and ski instructors... Everything is planned for groups who enjoy sports trips! The design of the High Tech spa favours the "minerality" of the lauze and raw materials for its spaces from which one can admire the view of the Mont-Blanc massif.
