The verdict

The Hôtel Mont-Blanc is Chamonix's urban luxury address: a five-star right in the centre, from which you walk out to the pedestrian streets, restaurants and stations. Its Google rating of 4.8 from nearly 600 reviews is the best of the town's five-star hotels.

The tourist office lists it from €300, the highest starting price in the valley, valid for an off-peak date and a basic room.

On site

The spa and the heated outdoor pool, which you can see steaming under the snow, let you end the day without going out again. The in-house Le Matafan restaurant is named after a thick pancake from the Savoyard tradition.

Rooms in the centre have their downside: the bustle of weekend evenings. Ask for a room on an upper floor or at the back if you are a light sleeper.

Our advice

Check the "Mont Blanc view" supplement on a floor plan before paying: depending on the orientation, the view is of the massif or of the rooftops.

Hôtel Mont-Blanc, check the rooms: the link opens the property on Booking.com for an upcoming weekend, change the dates to suit your stay. Chamonix prices can double from one week to the next: book with free cancellation.

See availability on Booking.com →Partner link: booking through it supports the site at no extra cost to you.
