We stayed 19-26 Feb 2926. First of all the accommodations communication is fabulous. I would say the ski in ski out is misleading. It’s probably an 8 minute walk in ski boots and carrying skis and poles to the telecabin. When you then exit the slope at the end of the day you also have this walk back but around the train station so adding on a few more minutes - we did learn it is far easier to get the telecabin down (but no way near as fun). The walk does take you past a drink stop though so it made it bareable. We had a double bedroom in our accommodation with a sofa bed in the lounge, one sleeps on the sofa part and the other on a trundle pull out. Everyone slept very well.- The apartments are well equipped with everything you need. We did not have an oven which proved problematic on the first day after running to the supermarket at the airport and grabbing a pizza for dinner. Thankfully on day 2 we got talking to a couple who had an air bnb so they cooked it for us! We were worried about our stay here after reading some quite negative reviews but never needed to worry. The pool is cold….despite saying it’s heated but it did not bother the children in the slightest and they loved going to the pool everyday after a day on the slopes and unwinding. We also enjoyed decanting some wine into paper cups and watching them play from the loungers. The sauna works. The bakery is lovely….we had the muffins, croissants and enjoyed the pasta & curry dishes. I would recommend.

We have been returning to vallorcine apartments for a few years now. Unfortunately we feel they are not run as well as they were a few years ago. There is no one on reception, the bakery is very low on stock - can’t even get milk there. The pool is not heated for long enough so it’s too cold to stay in for longer than 5-10minutes. The sauna is only open from 4 pm and then crowded with young children trying to get warm after the cold pool! The WiFi is very poor and there was only one English Channel available on tv. A few years ago there were several movie channels available, an ice rink, a little kiosk, towels for swimming at reception and someone on reception. There was also a games room with a pool table which is now gone. The apartments are generally clean but there were some missing items that had not been replaced eg chopping board, long mirror and the bath screen had a very mouldy seal. Overall, it was quite disappointing this year. It’s such a pity as they could be much nicer if run properly.

Apartment lovely with beautiful views, however when booked it stated there was a cafe and patisserie and bar on site, all these were closed as it was seasonal. This was not made clear. There were no staff on site, any issues had to be dealt with via email. The rental company for the apartment were very good. They had provided essential amenities and a complimentary bottle of wine, which was appreciated. The main issue we had that we booked expecting there to be places that we could purchase food.

Quiet base for some local hiking. Room was pretty decent though layout of the building was confusing and door locks even more so. Well equipped though outside of the building could do with some paint. Views from rooms are pretty limited - just some tree covered hillsides Very quiet - mainly due to end of season. Good underground parking Provided everything I needed - and would probably stay there again but wouldn't go out of my way. Fairly good value for money

The room is small and old. It's a bit overpriced even in Chamonix.

Great location, this is a very quiet area in the valley. Excellent view of the river and cattle pasture. The main thing that I didn’t like was the welcome bag was mainly a green scratchpad and cleaning products. It was a little stressful because there was the threat of losing a huge deposit if it wasn’t cleaned well enough. For the price of the room, I would expect to be greeted with a green scratch pad and told that it better be clean or else!

Bonne localisation pour les marches en été, appartement bien insonorisé, tout confort, piscine très agréable. Malgré les nombreuses affiches, je n'ai vu aucun autre client prendre une douche avant d'entrer dans la piscine et ils parlaient pourtant tous la langue de Molière...

We decided to take a last moment & quick family trip over the weekend by finding a great deal on hotels.com. The establishment was outstanding with a very gracious staff and more than accommodating amenities located in a quaint and gorgeous little valley village above Chamonix. They upgraded our room & charged us even less than the advertised rate. Normally we try to discover new places with each trip, but we can't find a reason not to return!

We took a family room for 7 nights. The room was spacious and well equipped. The hotel is very nice and has private and indoor parking for each room. A nice stream flows in front of the hotel. The hotel is near thr cable car and has a basic bakery, swimming pool, spa, games (indoor and outdoor) for children. The reception only works until 20:00 but we get along if necessary. The town itself is a 20-minute drive from Chamonix, but an 8-minute drive from the Swiss border, which is a huge plus. There is also a train station next to the hotel. There are lots of nature trails in the area. The town (Vallorcine) is quite sleepy and quiet. There is no supermarket or stores. Each room is equipped with few capsules for dishwashers, two garbage bags and small pieces of dish soap and bath, which is for the entire stay (not enough for 7 nights stay and the guest has to purchase an extra on their own expense). There is no cleaning of the room during the stay and there is no change of towels / sheets. Guests are required to clean the kitchen themselves at the end of the stay or otherwise will be charged a fee of EUR 100.There is a laundry room near the reception for a fee of EUR 5 for the washing machine or dryer. At the end of the stay we were required to pay EUR 42 (!!!) for a city tax (EUR 3 per adult per night). All in all, a worthy value for money. Quiet and pastoral location. Far from the bustle of Chamonix but close enough (by car) to all attractions. We will return again.

דירה קצת מרוחקת ועם דרך מפותלת נוף יפה, מיטות נוחות. בריכה וחצר כיפיים ומעולים לילדים ולימים גשומים אבל המלון קצת קמצן ולא נותן- סבון, שמפו, נייר טואלט, תה, סוכר, דברים בסיסיים הכל בתשלום נוסף.

We loved the hotel. It was perfect for our family, two bedrooms, lovely deck, beautiful views of the mountains. My children loved the pool and the mini golf and ping pong. We also loved the restaurant Le Comptoir across the street and the easy access to the cable car to go up the mountain for a lovely walk and fantastic views. Great stay!

Well appointed self catering accomodation suitable for families of all sizes. Very convenient bakery downstairs and a couple of restaurants nearby. Great to have use of the swimming pool and sauna and a lovely play/ games room for children and teens. My only complaint are the pillows- too bulky and hard!
