This lively hotel has 21 compact rooms – all with new bathrooms and some with fantastic Aiguille du Midi views. There's also a more-than-decent restaurant (dinner menu €22.50) and in-house ski rental. In winter, the bar regularly hosts international DJs (Gilles Peterson and Krafty Kuts, to name two).
Navettes (shuttle buses) to central Chamonix, 2km to the northeast, stop right outside.
