Décevant pour un hôtel si bien situé dans Chamonix
Pros:

Proximité du centre positif

Cons:

Notre suite était sale , le canapé, les moquettes présentaient des taches douteuses. Odeur désagréable. L’hôtel vieillit mal.

Top Hotel
Pros:

Die Lage ist einfach Top

Cons:

Das Parken ist generell im Ganzen Ort viel zu teuer, bei Hotelgästen könnte man schon ein Sonderpreis machen!
