Places to Stay in Chamonix

Whether you’re skiing or just sightseeing, it’ll take you a few days to see all that Chamonix has to offer. Luckily, the area is filled with cute hotels, hostels and guest houses. So whether you’re after chalet-chic of contemporary mountain style, Chamonix has it a ll. Accommodation for the Chamonix area is either in the historic town of Chamonix or one of the many nearby villages. There is no ski-in ski-out accommodation and no single area is the perfect accommodation location for skiing. As most of the ski areas are not interconnected you’ll need to catch a bus to get most ski resorts anyhow. If you want to stay near the nightlife downtown, choose a hotel in Chamonix itself. If you prefer a peaceful and quiet place, the villages of Argentière or La Flégère are very nice.

Accommodation styles vary somewhat with a wide variety of hotels, guest houses, holiday centres or furnished apartments of all categories, modern and traditional. Chamonix chalets abound, many of which provide very plush accommodations. And at the other end of the spectrum there are various budget options including cheap hostels.
