Great place. Great atmosphere. Perfectly good place for beginner to learn to ski, who might be intimated on where to go and what to do.
Absolutely Fantastic place to stay, great facilities, great people, all round 5 star place in the amazing location of Chamonix! Highly recommended.
Great staff, comfy beds, hot tub and sauna with free breakfast. Spot on !
My boyfriend and I had an awesome time!! The atmosphere was great and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. We didn’t have any interaction with the staff but communication was easy, the amenities were great and we felt safe the whole time. Totally recommend this place!!
Overall, the stay at Chamonix Lodge was good. Only complaints: the room we stayed in was very small and with 3 of us in the room it was difficult to manoever with our luggage. We were very lucky because our room was right next to a common area that was mostly empty, so we were able to use it as an extension of our room. Some of the rooms were not in the best locations with respect to noise (like the one right at the top of the stairwell). Didn't find there were enough shared bathrooms (2).
Third time at Chamonix Lodge, great value place in the otherwise expensive Chamonix. Clean, good location, wasn't overly social when I was there but was very late in the ski season.
When I first entered the reception area no one was there. I started reading the bilingual maps and pamphlets on the walls. I plugged my phone into an outlet to charge. About 10 minutes later l encountered an employee. She checked me in an hour and a half earlier than reception hours indicated. I took my luggage up to my room. looked around for a moment. pulled the book I had been reading from my backpack and immediately plopped down on a couch. This hostel is Comfortable! Highly recommended!!
Great experience, friendly and efficient service and a comfy bed. Only negative is that it looked like the bathrooms potentially mold and the walls are paper thin.
Positive: breakfast is good, kitchen furnished very well, hairdressers and towels available, hot and good shower(there was shower gel available as well). Negative: the mattress wasn’t good, the checkin time doesn’t help at all(only 3h/ day) and the code to open the door they send on email was wrong (not only for me).
