Awesome stay, we will be back!

What an absolutely amazing week we had at this hotel. Run by a lovely family who were super nice and welcoming. The hotel was awesome, the location was perfect and the views of Mont Blanc over breakfast were breathtaking. This was a summer trip but it would be a perfect location to get to the Chamonix valley for skiing. Our room was great, breakfast was just what we needed and the tartefflete was out of this world. Great spa too, my partner and I had a couple of relaxing sessions in there. Book with confidence and enjoy your stay. If you love dogs, you'll also get your furball cuddles in.

Très belle surprise. Bel hôtel et proprio au top

Super sejour dans cet hitel superbement bien décoré. Toutes les pièces sont belles, esprit chalet et cocooning. Spa, hamman, piscine, aire de jeux pour les petits, un grand parking, une belle terrasse et même une salle de ciné. Le personnel est agréable et professionnel. Le ptit dej est bien achalandé et les repas sont excellents. La carte est simple mais gage de fait maison.

Belle étape pour visiter la région de Chamonix

Ce que nous avons le plus apprécié : la vue sur le massif du Mont Blanc depuis notre chambre, l'espace wellness, le buffet des petits-déjeuners très variés, la disponibilité de la personne qui nous a enregistrés le premier jour et nous a donné de nombreux renseignements et astuces pour faciliter notre séjour. Le seul point negatif était la chaleur dans la chambre la nuit même la fenetre ouverte et volets fermés, mais il est vrai qu'il a fait particulièrement chaud cette année

Le séjour s'est très bien passé. La région est magnifique. en ce qui concerne la restauration, je trouve les prix un peu élevés surtout à cette période de l'année; Par contre, le soir à l'hôtel, en dehors du lundi, les tapas que nous a concoctées la sympathique Marion à sa manière étaient délicieuses et originales, tout en étant d'un prix raisonnable. A noter que Marion est une personne adorable, pleine d'attentions pour ses clients, on se sent vraiment à l'aise.

We had a very welcoming and lovely stay at Hotel La Fontaine. The room was very clean, the towels nice and fluffy. The hotel has a nicely decorated bar and restaurant and provides lots of activities for the family including a lovely swimming pool. The hotel is not in a town and next to the main road to Charmonix. It provides a good base, if you have a car, for visiting the many resorts in the Alps. I would recommend staying at the hotel.
