Top 5-Star Hotels in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc

First some context: We are benchmarking our review based on stays at some of the premier properties around the world; Claridges in London, Peninsula in Hong Kong, Beau Rivage in Geneva. The Mont Blanc is easily in this category. Room: Met our expectations: Extraordinarily clean - good smellies - comfortable bed Food: Exceeded our expectations: Breakfast was plentiful and of great variety. Dinner at the hotel was among the best meals we have ever had. Great presentation and taste. Service Far exceeded our expectations: This is where MB really shines. From before our arrival, extremely responsive with emails. The staff was incredibly gracious and helpful. No request too large or small. A special call out to: Arnaud Cecile Marieke Enzo Fleurial These folks(along with housekeeping and the entire staff) are among the best we have ever encountered. Just book here, you will not be sorry!

Recommend this hotel in Xiamuni, Grande, just a few minutes walk from the cable car station on the central street of the town. But the reason I recommend is not the location, it is a rare hotel with good hardware conditions, the service is so decent and attentive. Because the hotel is in the center, many streets in Xiamuni are limited to cars, and many sections are narrow and one-way. I called the hotel yesterday after a few roads were fruitless. The service staff gave me GPS coordinates very clearly and guided me all the way to the hotel's private parking lot. Let the staff pick me up. After arriving, very intimate introduction, chat, when asked if I want to book a local delicious dinner, I said, no need, I want to control the weight... The front desk lady humorously self-deprecating said, oh, how many food you are like us French women, missed! Ask me where I came from when I checked in? Say Beijing is a big city, we have 10,000 people... Knowing that I am going to the SPA and intimately draw a map for me to go back to the room to rest and change clothes. This morning, when the hotel service staff brought me Omelette and coffee, looking at the plate and pull flowers, this is really the most sincere I have ever eaten in the buffet breakfast, I feel that every minute is treated with comfort, this service is the best experience! The hotel decoration style is also my favorite old-fashioned, but it is also bright, dry, with a beautiful terrace to see the snowy mountains.

Very nice wooden hotel, very historical, the service staff is very nice, to help bring things to the room for introduction, also sent us honeymoon champagne and a fine snack. Breakfast is also great, the restaurant is Michelin two stars. Not many people have limited rooms, it is a very French fine hotel.

This hotel is located quite far away from Chamonix. We stayed here for two nights during Mont Blanc Marathon, since almost all hotels in Chamo center were fully booked. The hotel has a perfect location for few hikes: You can walk to Bossons glacier and Merlet animal park from the hotel. Both places are behind a good hike (2-5 hours). The breakfast was ok. The pool was closed due to fire :( Avoid rooms towards the motorway. This was a good budget option during a peak moment, but next time I shall stay closer to Chamonix.

Very good hotel! Located in the heart of Chamonix and at the gates of the Aiguille du Midi The attention of the staff is impeccable and the spa is a real plus The restaurant very good a little expensive but very good quality

We stayed in Heliopic Hotel during the 3rd week of March 2022. We booked one of the apartments which had plenty of space for our 3 children (9,6,3) The ski shop staff were very helpful on our first day and we were pleasantly surprised by just how close the hotel was to the main street where all the shops, restaurants and bars were located. A special mention must go to Cyrille and all the concierge team who go out of their way to help you get restaurants reservations, taxis, info about ski school or whatever it is that you require. The concierge service is most definitely 5 star. The hotel is clean and well maintained and the lobby is very kid friendly. It is quite unusual that kids are not allowed to use the swimming pool after 2pm. It seems at odds with the other efforts of the hotel to be child friendly. The private shuttle to the slopes is very convenient but we made the mistake of booking ski school and lessons for 9am which meant that we could not use this service as it got us to the slopes around 9 25/ 9 30. It is a much more preferable way of transporting young kids in ski boots with skis/poles etc than the public bus which is extremely busy and packed between 8am and 10am. However the bus stop is very very close to the hotel also. The apartment was very well equiped, very warm and had plenty of storage space to unpack bulky ski layers. It even had a private boot room beneath it.Overall we would definitely stay here again if we return to Chamonix

The positives: The bed was comfortable and the views amazing if you have a mountain view! From there it all goes downhill fast and you may as well be staying in a Hostel! Check in is 4pm, at which point you're told due to the hotel's desire to protect the environment they've done away with one time use plastics and you're handed a glass bottle and told to go fill it at the dispenser! Sounds good, until you get to your room and find one time use plastic cups in the bathroom and one time use paper cups by the coffee maker along with plastic utensils, and you see that the lights used are not LED's! Looking around you realize there are no amenities like shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, etc. So back to reception to ask about it? This is after all supposed to be a 4 star hotel!! At the reception you're told they have them behind the counter, all you have to do is ask for them??!! (4 star hotel??) You're handed a tray of ”one time use” amenities each one plastic and told to pick the ones you want! The hotels claim to be concerned for the environment is starting to feel a little disingenuous! We also had a real problem with the lighting in the rooms and bathroom. The bathroom lighting is terrible with the lights angled above you so the mirror is really useless because of the shadows! Whoever designed this did not have user friendly for the guest in mind! Also the shower stream was practically non existent, not enough force to rinse my hair and kept vacillating between tepid and too hot! Most of the ”front desk” people don't know anything about customer service and have had no training in it! A 4 star hotel at check-in should at least offer a map of the area and have some knowledge of the vicinity! That was not our experience.. we had to ask for a map! One gets the feeling this is just a temporary summer job for most of these people and they can't wait for this to be over! Obviously we don't recommend this hotel! I don't know how they ended up with a 4 star rating! We have traveled extensively and stayed in many hotels and I can honestly say I've never stayed in one like this! It's definitely not a 4 star hotel.. It's a hostel masquerading as a hotel!

1. Most, if not all, rooms have their own private balconies. These face either the back of the hotel, ie. facing the same range of the Alps as Aiguille Du Midi and Montenvers (the cable cars can be seen from the balconies), or the front of the hotel, ie. facing the city centre and Brevent (another arm of the Alps?) . The block of tree trunk which serves as a stool is very heavy! 2. It is located adjacent to the Chamonix MB train station. It is 3-5 minute-walk away from the town centre, McDonald's being one of the first easily-recognised indications. 3. The hotel interiors are mainly oak (like Ikea type): doors, table, shelves, wall fixtures. Personally love it, esp. the designs being flat and square. This was much more practical and pleasant to the sight compared to 'new' 'urban' furnishings where pieces were oddly shaped and placed. Would certainly seek to stay there again if returning.
