The verdict
Le Prieuré is one of the most practical hotels in Chamonix for the Aiguille du Midi, six minutes on foot according to the hotel. Its south-facing rooms have a balcony looking towards Mont Blanc, and its Google rating of 4.5 rests on more than 1,600 reviews.
The tourist office lists it from €104. The price you pay is higher: you need to add breakfast and the tourist tax.
On site
A spa, a restaurant, a bar with a fireplace and ski equipment rental on site. The hotel belongs to the Best Mont-Blanc group, like the Alpina.
The buffet breakfast was charged at €34 per adult as a supplement, and the tourist tax noted was €3.60 per person per night.
Our advice
Do the full calculation before comparing: for a couple over three nights, breakfast and tax add about €225. The hotel restaurant closes for a few weeks in November, so check if you are coming in the off-season.
