Pros:

Je m'attendais à beaucoup mieux. La pièce de vie est très belle mais je pensais que les chambres auraient un peu plus d'histoire à raconter. Cela manque de personnalité.

Pros:

On the upside the Hotel is centrally located and the chap at front of house was exceptional. Room was ok too. On the downside, the bathroom had mold around the showertray, the TV did not work and the stairs and landing were very grubby. Breakfast was very poor in quality and quantity running out of bread within the first 5 minutes (only two families!). Glasses were dirty too. So, this hotel is listed as a 4* but in reality is an average 3*.

Low key place :)
Pros:

La Whymper worked out well for us. We were out most of the day. The room was a little small but fine with a terrace off the room that didn’t have a great view but allowed cool air to circulate in as temps were 90’s!! Living room/ breakfast area was bright and also had balcony / terrace for sitting. Breakfast choice was good. Checkin was easy and staff very friendly & helpful.
Overall a chill / low key place to stay!!
Also the location is really bang in the middle of happening area.

Not a 4 star hotel
Pros:

This is not a 4-Star Hotel! It doesn’t even have a proper Coffee Machine. Rooms are small and the whole house feels cramped. This is an Inn or pension.

湯船がありなかであったまりました。特に道を間違えた私をホテルまで案内してもらったりしました。観光は雨と風で駄目でした、又の機会再度訪問したいです。

Great common room!
Pros:

Relatively small room, but more than made up for it by a great common room with a Nespresso machine. Great breakfast included.

Pros:

The room was comfortable and quiet. The location perfect. The room was clean and having a nice robe was a bonus. Breakfast was appetizing and quite good. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is that the carpet in the hallway needs to be replaced. It is quite stained.

Pros:

We stayed at Hotel Whymper twice on either end of our Tour Du Mont Blanc hike. The room was small, but had everything that we needed. We appreciated the amazing breakfast that was available each morning nice and early.

While I know this is normal for France, there was no air conditioning and the room was quite warm. No fans were available to cool it down.
