Hôtel de L'Arve by HappyCulture

I am from Saudi and I recently stayed at Hôtel de L'Arve, and it was truly an exceptional experience. The hotel follows a charming chalet-style concept, and we booked the largest cottage, which included three bedrooms, a spacious living room, and a fully equipped kitchen with all essentials and cookware. It also had two types of coffee machines, a washer and dryer, and an excellent heating system, making our stay very comfortable. The hotel’s location is perfect, close to everything you might need, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and attractions. The staff were wonderful, extremely friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. They also offer complimentary coffee throughout the day, along with afternoon pastries, which was a lovely touch. Breakfast included all the basics and was satisfying. I stayed for three nights, and the experience was truly memorable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area.

the most magical hotel I have ever stayed in. right at the center of chamonix great location. Very clean rooms and heated well. The girl in the reception Samar spoke Turkish which was the biggest suprise. thanks to her especially she is the sweetest most helpful person I’ve met in France. She is so smart she learned Turkish by her own and speaks like a native I was amazed by her. also the hotel has the cutest river in front of it. The breakfast was also very delicious. Would stay here again and would recommend a hundred percent.

We found hidden gem in Chamonix. This hotel was so generous in giving away water, tea, coffee, hot and cold drinks all day. They had all you can drink bar at the lobby. We love it so much. Also we had family room with 4 beds, so spacious and comfy. We had large double bed and 2 small single beds, the room was so big and equipped with bath tub and Hair dryer. Also free parking for the hotel guest. Cute and generous hotel we recommend!

Even though the weather wasn’t great and we couldn’t take the cable car to Aiguille du Midi, we still really enjoyed our time in Chamonix. The staff were very friendly and even let us park our car early — free parking is a real bonus here! Our two-bedroom apartment was huge, fully equipped, and had a massive balcony with amazing mountain views. The hot breakfast was excellent. The only downsides were that the laundry machine was out of order and the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner. Otherwise, it would have been a perfect stay.

Our stay at Hôtel de L’Arve was wonderful, and a big part of that was thanks to Amber! She was incredibly kind, professional, and always ready to help with a genuine smile. Amber went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect from check-in to sharing great local tips about Chamonix. Her warm and welcoming attitude made us feel right at home. Thank you, Amber, for making our experience unforgettable! Highly recommend this hotel and especially Amber’s outstanding hospitality.

We had an excellent stay at Hotel l'Arve. The staff was very helpful and easygoing and accommodating in every way, loaning us trekking poles for the TMB and storing some of our gear while we’re were on trail. Rooms were great and very reasonably priced. The breakfast was great and complimentary tea and coffee always a nice touch. Great location as well. Would love to stay here again.

Very happy I picked this hotel, staff are super friendly and helpful, my room is clean and spacious with an amazing view of the river and the mountains(room41) free coffee, water and cake. They also have games with chess and a pool table etc a sauna which I didn’t know about and a garden at the back looking over the river. I will be returning to this hotel every time I’m back in Chamonix.

This hotel is in a perfect location in Chamonix. Only about 1 block from the main area, but far enough away so that it's quiet and peaceful. Super close to the restaurants and bars but not on top of them. Located right on the river, with a nice courtyard to sit in and enjoy the scenery. It's an older hotel, with no air conditioning, but very nicely maintained and clean. They have a water filling station in the lobby and cake as well for the guests. We were there during the race and there was a lot of activity at the hotel and in town. Everyone at the hotel was so nice! From check-in to departure, I had a lot of questions and they patiently answered every one of them. I wish I could remember their names, but Ophelie (?) at check-in was super nice. Another front desk individual helped with restaurant recommendations and which launderette to go to. I'm already planning on coming back in 2 years to run one of the races, and will definitely stay here again. One tip: spend the extra money to get one of the balcony rooms overlooking the river. It would probably help cool the room at night. We were there when the heat wave was on and that would help with the temperature. Overall a great visit!

Me and my husband visited Chamonix and stayed in this cosy and neat hotel.. All the staff are so accomodating.. The room was so clean and tidy and we also got a room with a view of Mont Blanc.. The 3 nights and 2 full days is not enough i must say for this wonderful place.. And of course Hotel L'Arve the best place to stay if you come to Chamonix, France.

Overall this was a wonderful hotel. The location was great. It was walking distance to all the shops, restaurants and bars. It was also right next to the river which was a beautiful and they provide bikes so residents can ride around the town. They also have a billiards table and a foosball table in their game room. Regarding their rooms, I loved the fact that they have windows that you can open. We opened all the windows at night and enjoyed the mountain air and the rushing sound of the river. The room was a nice size and their was a day bed if you are travelling with a child. The one negative about this place is that the bed had springs. I'm used to the memory foam mattresses. Overall a great place!

You know the feeling when you book a random hotel and you end up being very satisfied? Well that's how we felt there! Booked a superior room for 2 nights and it was awesome! Great location (30 sec walk from the Main Street), free car park, nice people, renovated room and quite cheap if you don't book during the holidays. Definetly recommend this place for a comfortable and romantic trip in Chamonix!
