Awesome stay, we will be back!
What an absolutely amazing week we had at this hotel. Run by a lovely family who were super nice and welcoming. The hotel was awesome, the location was perfect and the views of Mont Blanc over breakfast were breathtaking. This was a summer trip but it would be a perfect location to get to the Chamonix valley for skiing. Our room was great, breakfast was just what we needed and the tartefflete was out of this world. Great spa too, my partner and I had a couple of relaxing sessions in there. Book with confidence and enjoy your stay. If you love dogs, you'll also get your furball cuddles in.

We had a very welcoming and lovely stay at Hotel La Fontaine. The room was very clean, the towels nice and fluffy. The hotel has a nicely decorated bar and restaurant and provides lots of activities for the family including a lovely swimming pool. The hotel is not in a town and next to the main road to Charmonix. It provides a good base, if you have a car, for visiting the many resorts in the Alps. I would recommend staying at the hotel.

The hotel is about three miles from Les Houches and the only way to get there is by taxi. This seven minute ride was quite expensive. The hotel doesn’t serve dinner and there are no restaurants, or anything else, within walking distance. Breakfast was limited. I would not recommend this place.

Decent hotel for the price.
Location is a little out of the town but as we were driving no problem at all, the access to the hotel is directly off the main road so this is a major bonus as the snow was really heavy and it was easy to get back to the road. The hotel service was very good the owners spoke some English and we managed to communicate well with our broken French, lots of easy parking and nice atmosphere in the hotel. I did not use the Wifi there so I can not comment on it. The main concern was the breakfast, it was very expensive and very basic. Even by French standards it was a basic breakfast, the second day we brought our own. The hotel needs to be improved in a few places but overall the value for money was good and it suited us for the time we were there.

Bien mais ...
Hotel agreable, positionnement top pour un sejour court. Manque d'équipement dans les chambres ( frigo / table de chevet) espece detente parfait pour les familles et enfants. Nous avons eu une chambre sur les toits avec qu'une tres petite fenetre et peu d'ouverture pas representatif de la photo de la reservation malheureusement. Le personnel est top et sympathique.

Très belle surprise. Bel hôtel et proprio au top
Super sejour dans cet hitel superbement bien décoré. Toutes les pièces sont belles, esprit chalet et cocooning. Spa, hamman, piscine, aire de jeux pour les petits, un grand parking, une belle terrasse et même une salle de ciné. Le personnel est agréable et professionnel. Le ptit dej est bien achalandé et les repas sont excellents. La carte est simple mais gage de fait maison.

Belle étape pour visiter la région de Chamonix
Ce que nous avons le plus apprécié : la vue sur le massif du Mont Blanc depuis notre chambre, l'espace wellness, le buffet des petits-déjeuners très variés, la disponibilité de la personne qui nous a enregistrés le premier jour et nous a donné de nombreux renseignements et astuces pour faciliter notre séjour. Le seul point negatif était la chaleur dans la chambre la nuit même la fenetre ouverte et volets fermés, mais il est vrai qu'il a fait particulièrement chaud cette année
