Хороший курорт, будьте внимательны при выборе отеля ! Nice resort, be careful when choosing a hotel!

Convenient location of the hotel. This is probably EVERYTHING! We lived (February 2011) probably in one of the best rooms in the hotel, a two-room suite with a balcony, the one shown on the brochure and the hotel photo, with access to the restaurant-veranda. The condition of the hotel inside is different from the photos on the site, they were apparently made a long time ago, right after the renovation. In fact, the building is old. There is an elevator in only one wing (and not in the central one), so be prepared to carry your belongings, equipment on yourself along a narrow staircase as an additional physical education)). The hotel administration is unlikely to help, if only you are lucky and get into a shift where a friendly young man works. In fact, there are only three porters: aunt-Motya, 60 years old and bald: BOTH do not like their work, they are unfriendly, it seems that they are serving a sentence by the verdict of the people's court and hate tourists))), well, the above-mentioned friendly young man. The central location has a downside: some of the windows overlook the restaurant-veranda, which guarantees your participation in the party all the time the restaurant is open, regardless of whether you want it or not))), and when the veranda stops working, the torches are extinguished, and you can continue to enjoy the burning, stretching from the torches to your windows, and the feeling of a holiday does not leave you for a long time! From 2 to 4 a. m. you can again immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a holiday, especially if you sleep lightly: along the main street, on which the hotel is favorably located, Chamonix guests return through holes after a night out, the open veranda of the restaurant along the route is an extremely convenient place to say to each other what they didn’t manage to do during the evening, to sing a lullaby loudly and emotionally, or just shout to each other sometimes even a little with anguish. You will be pleasantly surprised and will be able, while in the room, to be in the party and the topic at the same time, regardless of your desire))) Well, the most piquant moment that the hotel does not write about on the website: THEY ARE STEALING IN THE HOTEL. In fact, it turns out that the administration is not responsible for the things left in the hotel, THESE ARE YOUR PROBLEMS AND YOUR PROPERTY response from the administration, and technically creates favorable conditions for theft (rooms with luggage and equipment are located next to the additional exit, passage and entrance from the street free, bypassing the reception). Be careful, do not leave things unattended, if you decide to stay at this hotel, take a special person with you: you ride and relax, he guards your things. ))) Do not follow the rules of the hotel regarding the requirements for your belongings, do not leave things in the ski-room, storage compartment, well, I'm afraid that there may be problems in the room. Chamonix itself is a wonderful town, the theft of ski boots, boorish behavior and the reaction of the administration could not spoil the impression of the rest and the atmosphere of the resort!
