Staying in a hotel in the mountains above Chamonix, accessible only by a quaint train (30 minutes) where you can go on incredible hikes or just relax on the patio and stare at the glorious mountains... well, it doesn't get better than that. Everyone on the staff was attentive and nice, and the family room was perfect for my husband, myself, and our teenage daughter (who got her own space). We loved it!!
Our stay at Montenvers was great. The hotel appearred lovingly restored to it's original glory. It was a realitively easy and comfortable way to immerse in some of the most beautiful mtns in the world. The food was very good. The views from our room of the glacier and mtns were fantastic.
A historical hotel with excellent food. Love the hotel dogs( love to play stick) and the feline friend in the dinning area. The view from the room are wow.
Would i be back? Yes.
Nada igual, uma experiência única que todos deveria ter, de passar uma noite em um hotel mágico nas montanhas, tratamento intimista, vista impecável, eu nem tenho palavras.
O conforto do quarto é 10/10 e a alimentação é de alto nível.
Experiencia incrível no meio das montanhas. Vale a pena!
Café da manhã e jantar muito gostosos e bem acolhedor. A vista sensacional para as montanhas. Hotel fica isolado, bom para momentos a dois. Não esqueça de levar tudo que precisa, pois não há comercio algum ao redor.
Dans un cadre typique alpin, on a été accueilli merveilleusement bien , notre chambre très spacieuse avec vue sur la mer de glace top ! Dîner délicieux et petit déjeuner copieux toujours avec vue sur la montagne
Je recommande sans hésiter
accueil très chaleureux nous sommes arrivés très en avance mais aucun souci le dortoir était prêt (nous étions seul). Très propre et spacieux nous avons très bien dormi la literie était excellente. Les salle de bains très propres et spacieuses. Le repas très fin et copieux (félicitations aux cuisiniers) ainsi que le petit-déjeuner et toujours avec un personnel très souriant. Bref nous reviendrons et nous recommandons fortement pour le rapport qualité prix. Décor magnifique également
Nous avons séjourné une nuit avec notre fils de 4 ans dans une chambre ´randonneur’.
La décoration de l’hôtel nous plonge dans l’époque des premiers aventuriers de la mer de glace.
Le personnel était charmant avec toujours une attention particulière pour notre fils.
Cette nuit restera un souvenir gravé dans nos mémoires.
