Getting around

The local town bus, 'Le Mulet' stops right outside our apartment block and takes a circular route around the town in 20 mins. The ski buses for travelling throughout the valley are reliable and frequent. Please see our website for links to the relevant timetables. The 2 main bus stops are approximately 5/6 mins walk (plus maybe 2 mins in ski boots!). The Montenvers Train Station is 3 mins walk from the Astor. Take this to see the incredible Mer de Glace. The Aiguille du Midi is 5 mins walk from the Astor. Take this to look out across the Mont Blanc range, ski the Vallee Blanche or start your ski tour from here!

Interaction with guest

Although we are not lucky enough to live in Chamonix all year round we have a fantastic agent who is on hand should you need assistance. They will meet you at our apartment to show you around where practical and are always contactable by either email, phone, or face to face as their office is only a 5 mins walk away. It is also possible to organise your lift passes in advance, airport transfers or just about anything else extra you can think of to make your holiday perfect. We are also of course personally contactable via both phone and email should you need to reach us, our response statistics and reviews speak for themselves hopefully! Self check in is available.

“Great apartment, great views”

Reviewed 15 Jul 2019

We wrapped up a family trip to France in June 2019 with three nights at the Astor, and it was our favorite place to stay of the whole trip. The owners are responsive and provided excellent information to access the apartment, which was very helpful since we had a late arrival into Chamonix. The apartment is cheery, clean, comfortable and quiet. It fit our needs perfectly. We ate nearly every meal on the lovely balcony, taking in the beautiful view. It’s well located, close to downtown, but not too close. We didn’t need a car as we explored Chamonix. As an added bonus the property has an underground secured garage box (French style tight) for you average sized car.. We recommend the Astor for anyone who is planning a trip to Chamonix.

Response from the owner Hi Ginger, We are happy to hear that you thought our apartment was nice but obviously disappointed with regards some of your other points! There are certainly cars going up and down our street but as we are in a very quiet sector of Chamonix we are surprised you found it noisy as there is very little foot fall. We do usually leave 2 toilet rolls in order to get guests through the initial period of their rental, as well as bags for the bins, so please accept our apologies for this not being the case. Consumable items such as these are not usually provided to last the entire stay period by the large majority of self catering apartments in Europe, unlike in hotels. I understand their was a tea towel provided, but as a matter of course we don't leave provide paper towels. Thanks for mentioning the bottle of wine that we leave as part of a welcome pack, along with coffee, tea, tissues, biscuits etc, it is always well received. We'll definitely remove any out of date creamer from the pack though, so thanks for flagging that up! Best regards, David & Laura
