Les Grands Montets Hotel & Spa

Booked three rooms for our travelling family. Stayed 2 nights in September which was probably enough for that time of year. Front desk staff were lovely. Breakfast staff not so much. Ran out of eggs at 7.45am, one of only two warm dishes. Breakfast started at 7.30am and got short shift when enquiring if there were any available. The hotel is 15 min out from Chamonix so you need a car as there is not much nearby (though we knew that). Had a lovely German dinner 10 min walk up the road at a Bighorn Bistro.

The hotel is very charming and sits amongst the alps in a grand setting. The restaurant serves up a grand breakfast with many choices. The bartender was super friendly and made the best limoncello spritz! The restaurant was not open for dinner when we were there so we ate at a nearby restaurant which was mediocre.

My stay at The Les Grands Montets was exceptional. The hotel is decor is in a quintessential Alpine style, which made it feel super warm and cozy. It felt more like I was coming home, instead of staying in a hotel! I was always warmly greeted by reception, and all of the staff I interacted with were extremely welcoming and kind. They were ready to help with any questions I had regarding buses to trains to walks and restaurants. They truly went above and beyond to ensure my stay was as perfect as could be. My room was a large chalet style with a balcony facing the Mont Blanc mountain range. I took some time to make sure I enjoyed the fresh mountain air while being mesmerized by the beautiful winter wonderland views. There is ample closet space and the bathroom is large with good storage. The only downside was that my bed was a lot more firm than I am used to, but I used an extra duvet and it solved the issue decently. I did not come here to ski, but there is the Les Grands Montets ski lift/slopes right behind the hotel, so ultra convenient for those hitting the slopes. The town of Argentière is about a 10-15 min walk with some great cafes, supermarket, sports shops, and the convenient train that runs into the center of Chamonix. Overall, I had a great experience at The Les Grands Montet and I would highly recommend this charming and hospitable hotel if you are visiting Chamonix Mont-Blanc!

We stayed for 2 nights in July and had a marvelous relaxing time in the mountains. This is a great rustic ski lodge, located up from Chamonix. If that’s what you want- stay here, you will be very happy. The breakfast buffet was great and the employees very nice. Especially wanted to give a shoutout to Jorge who works in the restaurant. He was very nice and friendly. My wife and I only speak a little French but are fluent in Spanish and it was nice to converse in Spanish with him.

What an amazing place! Hotel was wonderful, super charming, staff was so helpful, everyday they made restaurant reservations. Pool was so wonderful to use along with the hot tub after a long day. Hotel was very clean and just a relaxing place. Everyday just sitting out on that lawn, enjoying the view, so peaceful. We had a superior room with balcony and it was just great, cleaning staff came everyday. Breakfast was AMAZING, I mean that buffet was beyond words! I hope one to come back. And I appreciated it wasn't in the center of town, just a little bit out of it and I'm glad, the center was a bit too hectic for me.

Exceptionally comfortable and friendly hotel. We have been returning to the hotel for about 10 years now for both family trips and trips with mates. It does it all. The rooms are perfect, breakfast spot on and the staff all lovely and friendly. Also, some really great restaurants within walking distance of the hotel.
