The Grand Hotel des Alpes, built in 1840, is located on the pedestrian street in the heart of Chamonix. Its latest renovation in 2019 makes it one of the most beautiful upscale hotels in the destination.

The 30 rooms (including 3 suites) from 17 to 52 sqm are of total refinement : luxurious and elegant furniture, light woodwork, marble bathrooms, complete equipment. The 2 suites ont the top floor (Honeymoon and Old Tower), under the roof with exposed beams or wooded chalet style, are particulary romantic.

The Grand is GRAND!
The Grand is Grand indeed! From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff greeted our tired souls with kindness! Our beautiful suite with doors opening to the river and the mountains was ready early and they even had champagne and strawberries to celebrate my birthday. My daughter and I had hiked the TMB for my 60th and it was the perfect ending! Laundry was done in less than 2 hours and the massages were exactly what we needed. It was like coming home. Will surely stay here again!

Great Location Next to the River
This is a traditionally furnished hotel in the heart of bustling Chamonix. Like most luxury hotels in Europe, the hotel does not offer air conditioning, but the rooms do have fans. The hotel is in need of a facelift, furnishings and carpet are a bit worn for this price point. The hotel attendant was efficient and will give you free ice if you request it for drinks. The bathroom was a tad dangerous – two levels and sharp corners – but we made it through unscathed. Good breakfast with lots of strong French cheeses. Spa was ok – in the basement so a bit dark and you had to ask the check in staff to turn on the sauna and steam room during the day which meant there was a delay before each were warm, a tad annoying. Our room was a suite with comfortable seating. Loved the hotel’s location adjacent to the river. Nearby dinner restaurant tip: Restaurant Le Bizes is wonderful.
