A rustic hotel with awesome views of Mont Blanc. A hotel with old charm for visitors who came with the sole purpose of skiing back in the days. The amenities were minimal but we liked the experience. The room was spacious for 4 and the beds were comfortable. We didn't bother getting the hotel breakfast as there a couple of good patisseries close by for fraction where you can get breakfast for a fraction of the cost. The hotel had a good patio where we enjoyed or breakfast and scenic views of Mont Blanc. The hotel puts out cookies and treats everyday for guests to enjoy. They had a espresso machine with espresso and hot chocolate. They had a pool table and foosball table in the game room which was nice. Our overall stay was very enjoyable.

This was a comfortable "budget-friendly" (for Europe in the summer) hotel with a decent location (easily walkable to the train station, stores and restaurants, though further from the Chamonix Sud bus station everything seems to leave from). We had a two bedroom apartment which was clean and roomy. Main issue with the hotel was TOTAL LACK OF CLIMATE CONTROL. I appreciate that the weather was warmer than normal (highs in the 80s), but they really need to invest in some ceiling fans at a minimum, and AC in the bedrooms would be better. Extremely hot at night, windows lacked screens and didn't let in much air, noisy courtyard made for very poor sleeping conditions.
