"This property is tired and in need of repair. The website photos are not representative of the space. It is dirty and lacks proper ventilation. Leaving the patio doors open at night is not a safe or secure option as not only do they not have screens, they are accessible easily by other guests on the property. Personal safety is an obvious issue. The temperature in the room was over thirty five degrees in the night without the doors open and one simply could not breathe properly. As we did...
"The refuge cancelled our booking on the day. This might be ok for a normal hotel but when the hotel is in the middle of a mountain, only accessible by a 2.5 hour hike (or a tiny train that is on strike - it’s France after all) then it is simply unacceptable to let your guests arrive at the door tired, hungry & thirsty to see a sign that says ‘sorry we’re closed, we tried to contact you’. We had indeed received a message from the hotel that morning but it confirmed that, despite the train strike,...
"Le Beau is an incredible property and lodge staffed by outstanding people and a very quality and relaxed atmosphere. The front desk opened at 7am and they drove me to the bus station at the bottom of the road. Great food at the quaint dinner restaurant and top notch breakfast choices.

For the traveler that thinks this is in Chamonix, do not be mistaken, it's not in Chamonix nor...
"Quiet and simply. You cannot get any better accommodation in - not only in Courmayeur but - all Europe to that price with these amenities and its staff. We really felt like home as the owner family is treating us. The gentlemen had been giving advises for Ski slopes like we are his family. His wife is greeting me and wife every time we see her like family. The night manager gentleman had been waiting for us to return to hotel late at night and closing the doors after us like we are his family....
"Beautiful place. Absolutely gorgeous interiors and the scenery is breathtaking too. The food and service at the restaurant are also very good.
My only complaint was not having an air conditioner in the room as it got very hot when we were there. Apparently some rooms do have A/C but the hotel was fully booked so they could not transfer us to another room. However, the staff did everything that they can to make us comfortable. They gave us not one but two fans to use in the room which helped...
