The facilities in the chalet and equipments in the apartment are good enough, special mention to the kitchen. The front desk service can be further improved in terms of communication and response time to request of repair work. All bedsheets should be provided before check-in, as the number of guests have already been given to the chalet upon booking. Another thing to mention is some guests were making consistent noises at night. As the front desk closed after 7pm, we had to bear the noises for two nights.

Beautifully appointed property in a quaint village. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Our apartment was on the top floor with great views of Mount Blanc. It was very spacious and comfortable for a family of 5 adults. The swimming pool/spa etc and fitness suite were excellent. Free Chamonix bus stops right outside taking you to all the highlights of the valley. We would definitely go back to stay there.

The property itself is amazing. Very new, top class material, nice and helpful. The problem is the location. It is such a shame to not be able to open the windows because of the noise from the motorway nearby. We had once dinner on the balcony (which was amazing and huge for our apartment), we didn’t try twice as the noise was so loud. Noise from the motorway on one side and noice from the cars driving the high street on the other side. I think this issue is true for any accommodation in Les Houches, from what i noticed. This is such a shame because, once again, the chalet itself is amazing.
