Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a simple and clean room, ideal for a brief stay, yet it feels tired and stuffy. The service is incredibly welcoming and accommodating, making it a great choice. The location is key, providing good access to transportation and nearby attractions. The dining experience is generous but could be better. Overall, a decent option for a short stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room had a view of Mont Blanc, but it was dimly lit and faced a neighboring chalet, making privacy an issue. The underground garage parking was convenient but pricey. The service was excellent, with free carpark access provided and a very welcoming atmosphere. The location was convenient with a view of Mount Blanc, but some areas needed attention, and the smell of chlorine was strong at times. The dining options were substandard given the high prices. Overall, a stay with some ups and downs.
The hotel offers a great breakfast overlooking the mountain; the rooms were cosy and comfy with a lovely view. The service was exceptional with staff taking great care of guests, even during busy times. The location is a key factor for a comfortable stay, though some attention to detail is needed. The dining experience was good overall with a nice selection of food. Facilities are well-maintained and accessible with a lovely garden view.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was upgraded to a Mont Blanc view, which was fantastic, but it was a bit dusty and not as clean as I would have liked. The service was friendly but had some issues with specific requests. The location was convenient for my activities but needed some attention. The dining was overpriced and ran out of food during breakfast. The facilities were decent overall.
I was upgraded to a Mont Blanc view room for free, which was a nice perk. The rooms were quiet, but the climate control could be better in summer. The hotel seemed a bit run down, which was understandable for the reduced price we paid but not suitable for the advertised price.
