Chalet Hôtel du Bois

good place for hikers

Very quite place nice swimming pool. Room clean and bed comfortable. Only issue internet was not working

This hotel is centrally located with only a 10-minute walk to the small downtown area of Les Houches. The staff is incredibly helpful and the front desk is staffed during the day light hours, after hours you have to use a code to get into the lobby. The rooms are not that big and pretty basic, however, the view of the mountains and your little balcony in the back is well worth the price. The rooms are clean, there is a bathtub. Great water pressure, hot water, small mini fridge. Buffet style breakfast in the morning at a cost, and the restaurant gets very busy at night due to not only the hotel gas but also locals come to eat. The food is very good. If you're planning to hike while you're there, the hotel will offer to store your luggage in a storage room for free until you get back. The hotel can also offer private taxi service if needed. There are no taxis in this area, about the bus stops are a 5-minute walk from the hotel and they come every half hour. Once more drawback is that there is no air condition in the rooms, and if you open the large Fringe doors towards the balcony, you will hear the neighbors when they talk. The hotel does have blackout curtains.

Great for a stop while doing the TMB. Rooms are nice and gets the job done. The food as part of our trek was outstanding! Amazing gluten free options, had some of the best au gratin potatoes ever, along with prime rib, smoked salmon, and giant prawns. Salads and dessert were amazing as well! Loved their local res wine too. Hope we get to return and do it again!

Convenient location
Quite simple room, could add 1 or 2 chairs and lights in the room, no tissue/napkin in the room. Even the swimming pool feels dark. The cuisine of the restaurant was great, very delicious. Good location.

I was looking to going skiing alone…a big decision but this holiday was the best decision I made 😊 Claire from the Ski Gathering was absolutely brilliant. She answered all of my questions prior to booking and reassured me throughout… Transports & ski hire was arranged and guidance given to me on how to book the ski passes etc. Food at the hotel was fantastic as-well as the swimming pool and sauna. Aurora from the hotel was also great and extremely helpful. The holiday was great from start to finish and I met some amazing people who I enjoyed skiing with and downtime each night. I can’t praise the ‘Ski Gathering’ enough!!
Thank you.

I stayed here recently in early March. I was part of a trip organized by The Ski Gathering.. The hotel was excellent and staff were very accommodating and friendly.

Exceptional caring staff, free ski bus fantastic. Breakfast good

We recently stayed at the Chalet Hôtel Du Bois and truly appreciated their warm hospitality. (With special thanks to Vittoria and the hotel manager who saved us from a nightmare happening as we almost had to cancel our holiday due to a wrong date we accidentally booked).

The hotel facility and guest room are very basic but they have everything we needed- a nice restaurant, free shuttle bus between the hotel and the Prarion/Bellevue Cable Car as well as heated swimming pool & sauna. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and will definitely return :)

A lovely base for our stay. The view from the room was incredible. Staff lovely and friendly. Pool and sauna was a lovely addition. I did expect a kettle in the room so was a little disappointed to not have one . In my opinion the bar also lacked atmosphere. I would stay again.
