HOTEL OVERVIEW
Hotel La Vallée Blanche Chamonix-Mont-Blanc - Venere.com
hotel front view
The Vallée Blanche Hotel is housed in a 18th century mill located on the banks of the Arve river, in Chamonix, facing the magnificent Mont Blanc. Thanks to its position, the property offers nice views and panoramas over the valley. The whole structure is decorated in the typical local style, featuring wooden furnishings and hand painted walls.

A wide range of amenities is available in the area in both summer and winter. In winter nearby cable cars lead to the main ski slopes and offer itineraries through the glaciers and the Vallée Blanche. In summer you can choose a walking tour, rafting, mountain bike and many other activities.

A friendly staff will welcome you in a warm and cosy atmosphere to make your stay unforgettable.

    We were VERY disappointed! The room we were given was falling apart and filthy dirty!! We stayed the first night and relocated for our next 2 nights. The bathroom was discusting! This was not a three star hotel by any means! The rating needs to be adjusted to maybe a one star at most. Also,it is located on a very noisy street-kept us awake all night. We will never recommend to anyone!

    Stayed for 4 nights, late June 2007. We had to ask specifically to get a host card for the free local bus and train; it is supposed to be given to guests automaticlally, according to all local information centres. The building is old but well kept. Very well located, very close to the central area of town and well within walking distance of the train station.

    It was the birthday of my husband who never touched snow so I searched during weeks to find a place with snow in the beginning of November! Well, unfortunatelly, that was exactly the day it wasn't possible to the "téléphérique" and get a great overvieuw of everything, anyway we reached a high pojnt in the mountain and could see the nice ice river! The people were very friendly (also in the city), there are free busses if you stay at the hotel, it must be even more beautiful in december or january with snwo everywhere. The room was big, everything in wood, we only couldn't make the temperature rise, anyway the bed was very warm.

    We have not given a Hotel Card at the time of check in. If we had that, we could take a tram free. The location of the hotel and surroundings are very good, and the room was very spacious and bathroom is also good.(Some hotels didnt have shower curtain, which annyoed us), but it was equipped here.

    We had a fantastic weeks stay at Le Vallee Blanche. The staff were extremely friendly. The room was well furnished and the beds made every day. Breakfast was worth the 9 euro. The only downside was the temperature of the room. We had to sleep with the window open most nights as you could not turn the radiators down. Apart from that we had a great time and will definately be staying in the future.

    Fair hotel at a very reasonable price. Right at the center of chamonix. Rooms are spacious and covered with wood in a typical mountain atmosphere. Huge bath with a view to the main square. Ask for a room with a balcony facing the MontBlanc. Breakfast is decent and is server at the dowstairs irish pub. I stayed at low season and it was well worth the price. I would be happy to return again.

    Our room was wonderful--right in the middle of town and beside the roaring stream and on the opposite side from the small street. The room was spacious and had three large openable windows which let in lots of sun and fresh air. This was our favorite hotel room of our 12 day trip to various parts of France (Provence, Paris, Grenoble, Chamonix). We enjoyed it very much and slept extremely well.

    La Valee Blanche is in a terrific location right in the center of town and on the river. Our room had a small balcony that looked out at Mont Blanc! The room, however, was very dark and small. On the other hand, the price was great! Breakfast, while extra, was terrific and well worth the money.
