Charming Chamonix!

Written by Robyn a Skier from Geelong
26/1/2012

Knowing nothing about European resorts, we asked Anne in Melbourne to recommend a good place to go in Europe and she suggested Chamonix.

We weren't disappointed! The scenery was spectacular and our accommodation at Balcons Du Savoy was excellent. It had amazing views of Mont Blanc from each room and we had kitchen facilities so could stay in if we wished after a hard days skiing.

There are so many runs to choose from in Chamonix and equally as many restaurants to eat at.

We loved our time there and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Chamonix - Hotel Mont Blanc

Written by Rachael a Snowboarder from Australia
5/4/2010

Chamonix is a great resort for skiers and boarders alike. Great snow, great terrain and great nightlife. We went as a mixed group of genders, ages, abilities and both skiers/boarders and had a wicked time.

We stayed at Hotel Mont Blanc, a 4* hotel. We were fortunate to get a really good deal on this hotel, but I did notice that the full room rates were pretty high, although in its defence it does have a fabulous location, awesome views and an amazing wine list.

Each day we went to the slopes via the hotel shuttle bus wich was very convenient and easy. I would recommend this hotel if you can get a good deal on it.
