Before and after treks or climbs in the French and Swiss Alps, we place most of our travelers in the comfortable 2-star Hôtel de l’Arve located in the center of Chamonix, only a few blocks from the main square and the guide’s office. For clients looking for a more upscale experience, Chamonix also offers several luxury options.

After a challenging trek in the Alps or a climb to the summit of the Mont Blanc, consider spending a few nights in a great luxury hotel! We are pleased to be able to book almost any hotel in the Chamonix valley. Here are our top two picks.
