Staying in a hotel in the mountains above Chamonix, accessible only by a quaint train (30 minutes) where you can go on incredible hikes or just relax on the patio and stare at the glorious mountains... well, it doesn't get better than that. Everyone on the staff was attentive and nice, and the family room was perfect for my husband, myself, and our teenage daughter (who got her own space). We loved it!!

Our stay at Montenvers was great. The hotel appearred lovingly restored to it's original glory. It was a realitively easy and comfortable way to immerse in some of the most beautiful mtns in the world. The food was very good. The views from our room of the glacier and mtns were fantastic.

Uma experiência única.

Nada igual, uma experiência única que todos deveria ter, de passar uma noite em um hotel mágico nas montanhas, tratamento intimista, vista impecável, eu nem tenho palavras. O conforto do quarto é 10/10 e a alimentação é de alto nível.

Experiencia Incrível!

Experiencia incrível no meio das montanhas. Vale a pena! Café da manhã e jantar muito gostosos e bem acolhedor. A vista sensacional para as montanhas. Hotel fica isolado, bom para momentos a dois. Não esqueça de levar tudo que precisa, pois não há comercio algum ao redor.
