Categories

Cleanliness
6
Mixed reports: generally described as 'sauber' by some guests, but multiple strong negatives about bedbugs (punaises de lit) and one mention of a not-very-clean room. Cleanliness is the main negative in reviews.
Service
9.5
Consistently praised: staff described as friendly, helpful and accommodating (specific mention of Martina and receptionists, quick room changes when issues arose). One minor note about a receptionist who seemed disengaged, but overall service is a standout.
Location
9.5
Excellent central location repeatedly mentioned: in the centre of Chamonix, next to a large Super U, pedestrian street, close to train/cable car, great views of Mont Blanc and convenient for restaurants and hikes.
Room Quality
9
Generally very positive: recently renovated, modern furniture, good shower pressure and hot water, towels provided, balcony and scenic Mont Blanc views; room sometimes described as compact but comfortable and exceeding expectations.
Amenities
8.5
Positives noted: reliable Wi‑Fi, luggage storage, bar on ground floor, breakfast available and filling. Minor negatives: hotel parking sometimes unavailable and nearby construction in places.
Value for Money
9.5
Multiple mentions of great value (explicit praise for price like €72/night being cheapest at the time) and overall excellent rapport qualité/prix.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast described as substantial by some guests and the hotel bar has a pleasant atmosphere; no major F&B complaints but limited detail overall.
Overall Experience
8
Mostly positive overall stays with strong location, helpful staff and good value; dampened by cleanliness incidents (bedbugs) and occasional noise/parking issues, resulting in a solid but not perfect overall impression.

Une fois la chambre n'était pas très propre mais rien de dramatique.

Great value for money in the center of Chamonix with the mountain view!
Pros:

I stayed for one night on my own in a Cabin Bedroom after finishing my Tour du Mont Blanc trek. The description stated that the room was 10 square metres, but it turned out to be quite spacious and exceeded my expectations.
The room had everything needed for a comfortable stay, including enough space to do some morning stretching. It also had a balcony with a magnificent view of Mont Blanc, which wasn't mentioned in the description and was a very pleasant surprise.
The room cost €72 per night, which was the cheapest option available at the time.
There is a bar with a pleasant atmosphere on the ground floor of the hotel. A supermarket and Chamonix's main pedestrian street are both just 50 metres away. The hotel also has luggage storage, where I was able to leave my bags for a few hours.
The Wi-Fi worked perfectly. The room had heating, and the shower had good water pressure and plenty of hot water. There were also enough towels. The room had been recently renovated, and all the furniture looked modern, despite there not being much of it. There was even a small table where I could have breakfast.
I was very satisfied with the service and the overall value for money. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Chamonix!

Cons:

Nothing could be mentioned.

Enjoy the stay overall.
Pros:

Great location. I’m the centre of the street, with a big supermarket just outside. Very convenient. Great view with window facing to Mont Blanc.

Cons:

There was construction around. And we had to carry heavy luggage up some stairs.
