the most horrible experience
got kicked out of the hotel as it stated on your platform pet friendly and the owner refuses to refund and got harressment calls at 21h.
What an absolutely amazing week we had at this hotel. Run by a lovely family who were super nice and welcoming. The hotel was awesome, the location was perfect and the views of Mont Blanc over breakfast were breathtaking.
This was a summer trip but it would be a perfect location to get to the Chamonix valley for skiing.
Our room was great, breakfast was just what we needed and the tartefflete was out of this world.
Great spa too, my partner and I had a couple of relaxing sessions in there.
Book with confidence and enjoy your stay. If you love dogs, you'll also get your furball cuddles in.

Decent hotel for the price.
Location is a little out of the town but as we were driving no problem at all, the access to the hotel is directly off the main road so this is a major bonus as the snow was really heavy and it was easy to get back to the road. The hotel service was very good the owners spoke some English and we managed to communicate well with our broken French, lots of easy parking and nice atmosphere in the hotel. I did not use the Wifi there so I can not comment on it.
The main concern was the breakfast, it was very expensive and very basic. Even by French standards it was a basic breakfast, the second day we brought our own. The hotel needs to be improved in a few places but overall the value for money was good and it suited us for the time we were there.
Nous avons beaucoup aimé notre séjour à l'hôtel La Fontaine. L'espace détente et bien-être est très agréable. Il en est de même pour le bar et le restaurant. Merci à toute la sympathique équipe!
Hotel agreable, positionnement top pour un sejour court.
Manque d'équipement dans les chambres ( frigo / table de chevet) espece detente parfait pour les familles et enfants. Nous avons eu une chambre sur les toits avec qu'une tres petite fenetre et peu d'ouverture pas representatif de la photo de la reservation malheureusement.
Le personnel est top et sympathique.
Super sejour dans cet hitel superbement bien décoré. Toutes les pièces sont belles, esprit chalet et cocooning. Spa, hamman, piscine, aire de jeux pour les petits, un grand parking, une belle terrasse et même une salle de ciné. Le personnel est agréable et professionnel. Le ptit dej est bien achalandé et les repas sont excellents. La carte est simple mais gage de fait maison.
Beau bâtiment, bien entretenu, accueil chaleureux, une très belle salle de jeux.Restaurant agréable, serveur aux petits soins, bravo pour les bougnettes !

Hôtel vieillissant, état moyen, un peu de bruit de la RN 502. Mais accueil chaleureux et parfait. Petit déjeuner impeccable.
Vue sur le Mont Blanc, aire de détente très plaisante, très confortable et équipé pour les enfants
Chambre un peu basique. Pas de Wifi, pas de frigo, ni machine à café
Ce que nous avons le plus apprécié : la vue sur le massif du Mont Blanc depuis notre chambre, l'espace wellness, le buffet des petits-déjeuners très variés, la disponibilité de la personne qui nous a enregistrés le premier jour et nous a donné de nombreux renseignements et astuces pour faciliter notre séjour.
Le seul point negatif était la chaleur dans la chambre la nuit même la fenetre ouverte et volets fermés, mais il est vrai qu'il a fait particulièrement chaud cette année
Bon séjour à l’hôtel La Fontaine aux Houches
Situé au bord de la route qui mène à Chamonix
Hôtel propre à la décoration agréable et zen
Espace détente bien-être au top
La piscine bien entretenue
Petit déjeuner copieux, un large choix sucré et salé
Équipe dynamique et sympathique
Merci pour ce beau séjour ✅
Le séjour s'est très bien passé. La région est magnifique.
en ce qui concerne la restauration, je trouve les prix un peu élevés surtout à cette période de l'année;
Par contre, le soir à l'hôtel, en dehors du lundi, les tapas que nous a concoctées la sympathique Marion à sa manière étaient délicieuses et originales, tout en étant d'un prix raisonnable. A noter que Marion est une personne adorable, pleine d'attentions pour ses clients, on se sent vraiment à l'aise.
Hotel très agréable avec tout le confort (piscine, terrasse, jeux pour enfants...)
Personnel agréable
Vue Mont Blanc
Chambre très spacieuse
Un seul point négatif : l'isolation phonique des fenêtres pour la route très passagère
