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.

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.

The hotel is about three miles from Les Houches and the only way to get there is by taxi. This seven minute ride was quite expensive. The hotel doesn’t serve dinner and there are no restaurants, or anything else, within walking distance. Breakfast was limited. I would not recommend this place.

Decent hotel for the price.

Location is a little out of the town but as we were driving no problem at all, the access to the hotel is directly off the main road so this is a major bonus as the snow was really heavy and it was easy to get back to the road. The hotel service was very good the owners spoke some English and we managed to communicate well with our broken French, lots of easy parking and nice atmosphere in the hotel. I did not use the Wifi there so I can not comment on it. The main concern was the breakfast, it was very expensive and very basic. Even by French standards it was a basic breakfast, the second day we brought our own. The hotel needs to be improved in a few places but overall the value for money was good and it suited us for the time we were there.

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.
