The location is amazing—right under the mountains. Very helpful and friendly staff. Rooms in the summer were warm but clean and quiet. Breakfast was simple but delicious. Dinner was excellent. Well worth the price. When I come back to chamonix I will stay here again.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Very comfortable and very good breakfast. I took a private room and I also could enjoy all the amenities of a hostel: kitchen, cafe all day, common spaces to share with another guests.

    Free valley transport card provided on check-in- can use to travel free on trains and buses during your stay (bus stops pretty much outside). Staff were really helpful. Could walk to here from Chamonix Sud bus station. Quiet 4 bed mixed dorm. Had limited/basic kitchen facilities (I just used the fridge). Good value location, think it is cheaper to book direct. Seemed safe. First impression was that it is a bit rustic but I actually had a good stay.

    Great location, kitchen was very well equipped. Beautiful views of Mont Blanc. Location quite quiet at night, felt safe & good security. Really clear instructions how to find and enter the apartment. Spacious enough for 4. Nice to have a dishwasher and washing machine, all appliances worked well. Quite a basic place to stay but did the job.

    The hostel has a budget friendly price but don’t expect too much with that price. I think it is ideal for backpackers who need a bed to sleep on. It has a nice view of the mountains.

    A bit like a youth hostel but expensive for what it is. Not great value for money. Some good stuff: Great location - clean room/bathroom - lovely staff - nice soap/shower gel.
