Pros:

Séjour de 2 jours en demi pension. Sympathie du personnel d accueil et de salle, la réceptionniste a trouvé une solution afin de mettre ma moto à l' abri sans supplément. Personnels souriants ce qui change des commerçants et employés des remontées mécaniques qui dans leur grande majorité sont peu agréables. A l arrivée on peut se questionner de pourquoi un personnel purement anglais dans cette belle vallée de Chamonix mais au final bien contents car ils sont très conviviaux.
Bon emplacement accès rapide au centre de Chamonix en traversant les rails Sncf (portillon).
Petit déj très bon. Si vous partez faire l' aiguille du midi tôt on vous donne de la nourriture à emporter dans un sac isotherme. Le top merci à toute l'équipe

Cons:

Salle d' eau un peu petite. Mais ce n' est pas dramatique.

Raport calitate pret ok pt Chamonix
Pros:

Am apreciat foarte mult amabiliatea personalului si in mod deosebit faptul ca ne au permis sa parcam cu 4 h inainte de check-in masina in siguranta pt a putea merge linistiti la telecabina la ora programata!
Foarte aproape (~10/15') de centrul orasului si de locul de unde se pleaca in explorare catre rutele cunoscute.
Mic dejun prospat si panorama deosebita catre Mont Blanc. Curatenie si atmosfera tipica de lodge la munte.

Cons:

Camera un pic incomoda datorita tavanului mansardat, lipsa ventilaor sau Ac.

epouvantable
Pros:

RIEN

Cons:

pièce de moins de 10m2 qui ressemble davantage à un placard avec fenetre. Lit minuscule et literie improbable;matelas défoncé.... Coin eau avec une douche dans les WC... Aucun confort, moquette indescriptible, pas de clim, pas de télé, pas la moindre isolation phonique...fenetre qui donne directement sur la route...tout cela pour 150 (e) la nuit. les autre spièces sont possiblement très bien vu les photos mises sur leur site mais en tous cas cette "chambre " est à fuir.

Sejur de vis
Pros:

Amenajarea hotelului, au detalii foarte frumoase în tot hotelul. Locația este foarte bună, la aproximativ 15 min de mers pe jos de centru Chamonix. În fata hotelului este atât stație de autobuz cât și de tren. Priveliștea asupra varfului Aguille du Midi, impresionanta. Micul dejun și cina, bune.

Cons:

Dusul este destul de mic.
