We stayed at La Folie Douce Hotel Chamonix from February 4th to 9th and had an incredible experience. We decided to walk from the bus station, which took about 15 minutes. As we got closer, we were in awe of the stunning, historic building, beautifully lit up against the night sky. The atmosphere was electric, with funky music filling the air, setting the perfect mood for our stay.
Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the reception staff, who were very helpful. Our room was cozy and comfortable—though not the biggest we’ve stayed in, it was well-kept, with daily cleaning and fresh towels provided.
The entertainment at the top bar was fantastic, featuring singers and dancers performing live. Outside, a DJ kept the energy high, with fire pits on the tables and even a Pizza Hut nearby. The bar was well-stocked, with plenty of staff ensuring drinks flowed smoothly.
Breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of choices—fresh coffee and juices, different breads, bacon, sausages, eggs, cereals, and more. The bar prices are on the higher side, so bringing plenty of euros is a good idea.
The outdoor pool is a must-try, offering a unique and refreshing experience. The lift just behind the hotel takes you straight to the top of the mountain, where you’ll find an incredible mix of black, red, blue, and green runs.
We absolutely loved our stay and will be returning next year with our family. Highly recommended!
