A lovingly and stylishly renovated boutique establishment made up of luxury apartments, whose sleek decor ensures the mountains stay centre stage.

Ideally located in a very quiet area, just a few meters from the bustling heart of Chamonix, this is the ideal place to enjoy the benefits of altitude.

Located in a small quiet backyard, a stone’s throw from the heart of historic Chamonix, the Génépy’s private courtyard makes it a real oasis of calm. Allow yourself to be swept away by the unique atmosphere of Le Génépy. 13 luxury apartments with contemporary decor in a historic building from 1903. From spacious studio flats to 4-room (3-bedroom) flats, each flat has a kitchen and you can enjoy the same services as in a hotel.

Le Genepy brings together shopping and mountain enthusiasts.

Ideally located in the town centre, a stone's throw from shops and restaurants and only a few metres from the main public transport links to access the various ski areas and hiking trails of the valley.

For all Le Génépy guests, access to the Hôtel Le Faucigny Spa is available at an additional cost. Between 2pm and 10pm, enjoy unlimited use of the sauna and jacuzzi to relax. To be booked at Reception.

Lovely apartment and great views
We loved our stay here. It was modern, with great views and very comfortable bed. We had apartment number 10 on the top level with amazing views of the mountains. Our bedroom had a small balcony which we enjoyed having our morning coffee on. The fully equipped kitchen was great as we enjoyed doing our own cooking for dinner and having our breakfast in the apartment rather than needing to go out. It was spacious enough for the two of us even though there is a pull-out sofa bed in the couch and we also had a single bed in our bedroom. It would probably become a little crowded for four adults but a family with children would be fine. It is in a great location in the heart of town, with the supermarket less than a minute walk and all restaurants and cafés within 5 minutes. Whilst there is no car parking available you can drop all your luggage off and then park 5 minutes walk away. It does become quite expensive for 1-2 nights €18- 22, but if you are staying longer than 3 nights you are best to purchase a weekly ticket as the price drops significantly. We paid €54 for 4 nights which was a weekly ticket. These apartments have a small lift which is quite narrow, but it fits one large suitcase and 1-2 Adults, so you just need to do a few trips up if you have more than 1 suitcase. You could actually fit a family of 4 if you all stood close together. The reason I am mentioning a lift is that some European countries only have stairs in their low level apartments. It really smells in the entrance of wet carpet but another Tripadvisor review suggested it was the dampness of all the ski gear. This turned you off as you enter however the apartments do not smell so don’t let your first impression worry you. We were surprised our room was cleaned on the 2nd day unknowingly to us, which was a lovely surprise. perhaps check the cleaning schedule with the reception as we were caught off guard when returning to our room having people in their cleaning. We would definitely stay here again and we highly recommend it.

Beautiful location, nice apartment, really smelly stairs
Family with dog stayed. Beautiful building outside, great location and good views of Mont Blanc from the rooms. 2 bedroom was good had a sofa bed too but the apartment isn’t big enough for 6 would be so crowded. Quality was good. Reception a short walk away and staff helpful. The only complaint we had is the communal entrance, hall and stairs stinks of sweaty skiers gear and it’s August…. Was horrific. Apartment didn’t smell. The smell needs seriously sorting. Wow! Car park was at the end of the road and there is a drop off outside the apartments.

Charming Central Apartment
Lovely little apartment overlooking a charming courtyard in the heart of Chamonix. It is also close to the bus stops for all the slopes. The hotel has a mix of hotel rooms and various size apartments. We took the one bedroom option for two of us. The bedroom had a double bed and a single bed. There was also a comfortable double sized pull out sofa bed in the living room. So, theoretically, the apartment could fit 5! We were only two. They also have two bedroom apartments. Fabulous views of Mont Blanc from the windows and our balcony. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Best place to stay in Chamonix
The Genepy in Chamonix, managed by Hôtel & Spa Le Faucigny, offers a convenient stay with check-in and breakfast available at the hotel next door. While parking is discounted, reservations are essential due to limited slots, and note that there's no elevator. The apartment features a bedroom and a closet-type room suitable for kids but without a window. Despite the summer heat, the provided AC/FAN machine helped cool the space effectively. Although initially advertised, the laundry was unavailable, but the manager promptly addressed the issue. The kitchen is well-equipped, allowing guests to prepare meals with ease, especially with the supermarket nearby. While the apartment is clean with a spacious balcony, there's no mountain view. Communication with the helpful reception staff is recommended for any needs or requests to ensure a hassle-free stay.
