    Throwback in time
    You like it or you hate it. We liked it. The concept and the whole experience are just wonderfull. Many objects referring to our childhood made us instant happy. In comparison with other hotels, a stay at Rockypop is not cheap. It's obvious that the price is determined by the setting where you're in. However included in the price, you may expect a very friendly and english speaking staff (always available, rushing and running for the guests. They are a real added value for the hotel, for sure ), clean (but small double ) room, a tasty breakfast (small minus, the pancakes and bacon were most of the time not warm) free mineral water, free coffee and tea non stop, nice smelling shower soap, parking, games, pool table ... We loved the diner, juicy hamburgers, pizzas, but also more highstanding dishes available on the menu. Congrats to the kitchen for their flexbility (our son ordered an "oriental" without olives and eggplant and so he received his tailormade sample) and kudos for using home grown vegetables in some of their other dishes. After having walked or hiked, a homemade cocktail helps you to forget your tired feet (go and grab your -50 % happy hour drink between 17h-19h) The hotel is respecting the covid measures, which made us feel safe and comfortable. We'll come back if we're in the neighbourhood. Tx for the offered hapiness !

    Great hotel, clean,quiet and polite staff
    I'm unsure why they have a couple of recent bad reviews. The place is a little bit funky and attracts families but rooms are clean quiet and the food is ok. The breakfast is extensive and there is plenty of it. Staff were extremely helpful in the hotel and ski shop. You can hire all your equipment from the ski shop below reception and buy ski passes. There is also a courtesy bus provided by the hotel that takes you to most but not all the lifts. Public bus transport (which is free) stops outside although French bus time tables and routes remain a mystery to me.There is also a super market a 10 minute walk away. The hotel is a little remote which is why the restaurant is always fully booked. Taxi fare back from Chamonix after the buses stop is 30 euro minimum. It wasn't and extensive menu at the restaurant but reasonable selection at reasonable prices. They provide free bottled water in reception. Wifi was great. If you have small or young kids there are some things for them to do.

    Excellent Family Friendly Hotel
    We were so impressed with the Rocky Pop. The mezzanine family rooms were excellent, with lots of storage and comfortable beds. The staff were all lovely, fluent in English and nothing was too much trouble. Cocktails were great, food exceeded expectations and the ambience was excellent. The contrast between Friday/Sunday nights and Saturday night was massive with the hotel full to bursting on Saturday night. Only slight hitch was we had booked half board and every night we had to battle for adult portions for our two boys who at 10 and 12 needed a full meal not half portions after a days skiing. We offered to pay extra but this seemed tricky and being given a dessert cut in half one evening didn’t impress. However on the final night the waiter was exceptional and he saw how silly the situation was and sorted for us. This is an excellent family friendly hotel, and would highly recommend. You need to be smart with bud times as they are only every half hour. But once you get used to this, getting to the slopes and back is easy.

Really poor service. There were six of us for dinner. Only one ordered a starter. When the other mains came only 4 arrived. The two remaining were promised shortly. One other wasn’t cooked correctly . Eventually took 25 minutes for the last meal to come ( one had been sent back and returned and was eaten before last arrived) When I challenged the manager he told me it was my fault as I had ordered a starter !! Completely refused to accept the blame and just said “ it’s coming “ . He failed to understand that mains were supposed to come together. This isn’t our first time at Rocky pop but will be our last.

Dear Sean , We thank you for your review and we are sorry that our restaurant didn't match your expectation. The two other mains came shortly as my team mentioned. It takes a little bit of time to re cook your plate as you requested. My manager simply did her best to serve you in time. I hope you will see you again at Rockypop !

The AC never worked in our room. I went down to the front desk 3 separate times to discuss the problem and nothing was done. Our room was 80 degrees at night. When we got up in the morning the hallway outside our room was significantly cooler than our room. No fans offered or anything. Just had to sweat it out in a room with a ceiling height of 6’ (I’m 6’7”). Also we never got to eat on the property because they were all booked up every evening. Save you money and eat at Hôtel Restaurant Le Saint-Antoine, reasonable prices, friendly wait staff, excellent lemonade and only a 5-10 minute walk - highly recommend.

Dear Chris, We thank you for your review. Our Air conditioning is working, it is an air conditioning for the whole hotel. Our technician came to your room and I can assure your that it was 22 degrees and not 80 ! Concerning our mezzanine they are nice and cosy the size is 1M78. I am so sorry that you couldn't get a table at the restaurant, the reservations must be done in advance for the first two services as we are victim of our own success ! King Regards

Dear Jonatan, I am sorry to hear that you became sick. As we exchanged, everything we are making in our restaurant is fresh and home made. I Know that you have been feeling bad after your dinner. The same evening we served 45 same tartares than yours, and none of our clients have been sicked. I totally respect that our French fries are not your taste. I am really surprised about your comment concerning commercial gesture and our food as you came back the day after, my team offered you drinks and tapas ! Kind Regards

Amazing location, great vibes, perfect place. Staff could be more informative and proactive about advice. We liked the breakfast even though we rushed it. Afternoon there was live music which was beautiful.. Recommend it truly!

Will start off with positive part first nice hotel clean really good tasting food, bit pricey but quality of pizza burger was nice . Nice location some staff really helpful . Don’t be put off by my second part hopefully never happens to you . On my 3rd night my partner broke her leg my hotel gave us no help what so ever . Was trying to get back to hotel for 6 hours after being left at a hospital in middle of nowhere . was a little stranded . My hotel tried to extort me on taxi for double the price 120 for taxi from hospital but taxi driver in hospital who was busy told me it’s 60 don’t listen to hotel they trying to make the extra . I got closer to hotel and rang them for taxi after being quoted 40 euro I rang my hotel and asked how much taxi would be . They told me what’s the maximum I’m willing to pay to get back . Couldn’t believe it I just wanted quotes not how desperate Iam and how much I willing to give you extra . Felt like the hotel staff were trying to make money from me . I was quoted 40 for a taxi but rang my hotel they told me 90 again. Where was these prices coming from even google has the correct prices . The hotel wouldn’t ring a taxi for me and all the drivers spoke no English . In there message email to me you can see where I’m being told here’s some taxi numbers they may not speak English sorry . Lack of empathy . I then rang back said look I be en out here 5 hours on street ring me a taxi . They don’t actually say no they just say no worries we give you a taxi that talks English and I ring them . Well that didn’t work . I’m fuming over that one day bitter taste over that for life won’t forget . You could be laying in a ditch 5 mins away and they wouldn’t help you . Beat that in mind . Lack of empathy from staff will ruin a decent hotels reputation

This is a great hotel to explore the Chamonix valley. The hotel is friendly and full of life. Staff are great. Food and drink is good quality and reasonably priced - Chamonix is expensive wherever you go. Rooms are larger than expected and very comfortable. We will book again in future.

Everything about this hotel was great from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Not only the exterior of the hotel looks sick; like a hollywood old theatre but they have a gaming theme inside that is just so cool. The staff is really helpful but also nice I have never experienced such helpful service before. Thank you for making this trip memorable :)

The hotel is not for 4 stars. On a scale of 1-10, I would rate it a 9. Entering the hotel right from the reception, you know you are somewhere where most people are happy. Excellent service at reception. Rooms spotlessly clean. Breakfast far above expectations. If there were normal tables in the glass window overlooking the snow-capped Alps, everything would be perfect. 100% value for money. We will be back for sure!!!
