Reviews
First of all, the hotel is located not very close to the centre of Chamonix, however, it takes about 10 minutes ride with train to the main station in Chamonix. But the Taconnaz train station is a bit hard to find and you need to flag the driver, otherwise they won't stop. Train goes once every hour. Taxi is about 25 euros, and if you decide to walk it's about an hour and 15-20 minutes walk.
Back to the hotel, the staff is okay although they speak very limited English, especially those who serve breakfast. They ask for your room number every morning, but do not understand. Breakfast was very limited, mostly cereal, some croissants, cheese and salami. Lunch was also limited to mostly salads and chicken in all its variants.
The hotel has some weird smell to it, it smells old and not renovated for years. Rooms were very dark with weird brown colors and shades, the toilet is separated from the bathroom. The bathroom was the best looking thing in the room. The view was nice, but the air conditioning did not work.
We were woken up by a drill noise at 8 AM on Friday. Totally unacceptable behavior from hotel management. Also the room cards weren't working properly, got mine changed four times in four day stay. The sauna didn't work since it was destroyed in a fire few days earlier.
Overall, wouldn't recommend the hotel except if you have no other choice. Wouldn't be coming back here.
Restaurant menu not the greatest but the hotel is extremely close to Chamonix, and the hotel provides public transportation passes in case you are travelling without a car.
Great amenities.
Good breakfast! Definitely worth the extra to get you fuelled for the slopes. I 100% would recommend hiring a car, we managed to venture to other ski slopes and get home when we wanted to rather than having to go vis the bus timetable. The bus stop is on the hotel grounds though so not too bad. Not walking distance to the slopes. The hotel staff were great. Gave some good advise on getting over to Italy for the a day, we had the mont blanc ultimate pass and was totally worth it to visit Italy and the wider slopes. The ski shop gentleman was amazing, super helpful.
Well worth the money to stay there.
