We stayed at the hotel for four nights in total for a three day ski trip. Overall we were very pleased with the hotel for its purpose. The hotel is located in an amazing location in Chamonix Central. Behind the hotel was many amazing restaurants and shops in which you are spoilt for choice where to eat. We collected our skis from Intel Sports where was only 50m away, highly recommend and fantastic service. There is a ski bus that runs to all of the slopes only 100m away which was great. There was a ski locker room at the hotel where you can safely store your ski gear with a €20 deposit which was returned at the end of the stay. After a hard days skiing the hotel spa was a real treat. We decided against breakfast at the hotel for €24pp and instead made great use of the local patassieres and bakeries. Chalet 1480 was well worth the 5 minute walk. Overall the rooms where slightly dated but if your looking for a hotel perfect for skiing in Chamonix Center, then I couldn’t recommend this enough.

“Our wonderful Christmas in Chamonix”

My daughter is 6 years old, and being from the UK, she has never seen snow before. We had an idea of going away for Christmas and wanted somewhere snowy. We were recommended Chamonix by many people and when searching online for a hotel - this one ticked all the boxes. We had two triple rooms as we travelled with my parents, and despite being there over Christmas, the prices were very fair. We flew to Geneva and used FlixBus from there to Chamonix. The hotel is a short walk (15 mins) from the coach stop - but there are ski busses that pass the hotel. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted by the reception staff. We were a little early but the staff showed us to a luggage storage room and we enjoyed a drink in the hotel bar. The hotel bar is very warm and inviting and we thoroughly enjoyed our visits here. When we were given our room keys - we were pleased to find two well equipped, but completely differently styled rooms. Our room was a large room with stunning views of Mont Blanc while my parents room faced the front of the hotel. In hindsight I wish we swapped rooms as there’s had a more suitable 3rd bed behind a curtained area which would have been perfect for our daughter. The third bed in our room was very firm and not really suitable to sleep on - but the main beds were big enough for the 3 of us to share. The rooms were always lovely and warm, and serviced daily to ensure they remained spotlessly clean. The bath was a little on the small side but it was perfectly fine for the 4 nights we were there. In the morning we used the spa facilities on the top floor/roof. The views from the pool, sauna and jacuzzis were breath taking. We were very fortunate we had a lot of snow for the first 2 days - so everything looked incredible. We didn’t eat breakfast at the hotel as I felt 25 euros per person was very expensive. We are not big eaters in the morning and my daughter only usually has a piece of toast or a croissant - so took advantage of the bakery next door. We hired ski’s and the hotel has a heated ski storage room which was a fantasticly convenient facility. One night we had some extremely loud and disrespectful girls in a neighbouring room - the hotel handled it perfectly and the girl on reception visited them to ask them to be quiet. The same room also were noisy the next night (past 11pm) with loud banging, loud music and shouting - and again the hotel handled it superbly. The hotel is really well located. Close to the town centre and a lovely Christmas market was right outside the doors. We had a magical stay, the snow topped it off. The hotel staff were superb and really cared about the guests experience. We would definitely return if we visit Chamonix again. Thank you to everyone at the hotel for making our Christmas special.
