We booked this on the internet via a telephone call to my sister in England, whilst driving up from Cannes. She booked it at 3pm for us for the same night - 2 nights for 142 euros, so a good price really for France. On arrival at 7pm, the hotel had no record of our booking, despite having emailed my... more

Not at all good...the females at the reception were not at all co-operative...they dint even give the free pass for sight seeing in the city which all the hotals provide once you enter into the room...we had to ask for it 2-3 times still they were reluctant to give that. more

We stayed at the Alpina on the rebound from a cancelled booking in Flaine, and, based on the Trip Advisor reviews, we were rather apprehensive about the place, the food, everything really. Our attitude wasn't assisted when our booking agent contacted us the day before we travelled to say that whilst we had booked half board, the hotel were claiming... more

Good location right in the centre of Chamonix-near to the ski lifts too. But the hotel is distinctly average. Rooms are very poorly equipped-no tea or coffee facilities and you can't get a coffee aftre breakfast during the day until the bar opens at 3pm. There was glass in my food and no apology. The maid took all the towels,... more

The web site suggests that this is a nice place to stay. For the prices charged, it isn't! The rooms are ok but very tired, if you are used to hostels this will be fine. The so called spa area is tiny. The food is awful. We were a party of eight people and our first (and only) meal on... more

We booked via the hotel website for a 2 night stay. When we arrived at the hotel they did not have our reservation despite having emailed us on a number of occasions with our confirmation details. We were upgraded to a suite with a mont blanc view, however if this was an upgrade I would have hated to see the... more

This hotel is well located in Chamonix and the mountain views from the entrance area and from the restuarant are very nice. The reception area is pleasant and well kept and we found the staff to be friendly, courteous and helpful. However, we were disappointed with the bedroom, toilet/shower area. The carpet is worn out and needs to be replaced... more

Stay here only one night along our way to Alsace. We booked throught Venere website and got very convenient rate. The position is great, into the city centre and near everything. The hotel itself is quite anonimous (Ibis style), our room was quite small and old dated. Room cleanliness acceptable, but not excellent. Anyway I cannot give an extended review... more

Stayed here for 4 nights. Very welcoming on arrival. The room they had allocated was not ready but a different one was. This was adequate, clean though smallish. The view was through some girders to the back. The Mont Blanc view rooms are more expensive. It wasn't too hot as hotel rooms usually are. you ahd to use the bottle... more

Have just come back from Chamonix having stayed 4 nights at the Alpina Hotel and I must say that it was a wonderful hotel. First impressions are great as you approach the hotel, it looks very striking and attractive from the outside. The location is fantastic and you are within 30 secs walk of the main street and shops. 5... more
