Para as minhas expetativas uma excelente escolha tirando o barulho do restorante vizinho.
Cons:

Ao lado do hotel tem restaurante onde muitas vozes faz barulho

A perfect place to stay in Chamonix
Pros:

We have been here a number of times. Perfect place to stay. A little outside Chamonix centre but right next to frequent bus services to the centre. Restaurant/bar one minute walk away... Views of Mont Blanc

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

The location and view from the balcony was outstanding.

Cons:

The shower and bathroom facilities are a little awkward for anyone with mobility issues but we were fine.
