Description from owner

Description

Set on the top floor with uninterrupted, panoramic views of Mont Blanc, Le Refuge is a stylish, two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Chamonix, next to the river and minutes from the shops, ski lifts and public transport.

With a south-facing balcony, open-plan layout and high ceilings the apartment feels really light, and is incredibly spacious at 70 square metres. Considering the central location, it's a surprise to find that it's in a tranquil setting, facing away from the street and not overlooked by any other buildings. The apartment has been newly renovated to a high standard, retaining its local rustic charm but with all the conveniences of a modern home.

Le Refuge easily sleeps 4 to 6 people. For those with young children, there's plenty of space in both rooms for a cot.

The apartment has a private parking space in a secure garage underneath the building, a private ski locker, and lift access from the garage. There's also free public parking nearby.

The garage entrance is 2.10m, for those travellers who are concerned about access with a roof box.

“Amazing Apartment in the Heart of Chamonix”

Reviewed 25 Feb 2018

Perfect apartment in all respects if you want to stay in the centre of Chamonix. Superb views of Mont Blanc. 2 min walk to the main street, shops, bars and restaurants. 5-10 minutes walk to Chamonix Sud bus station to hop on the bus to all the ski areas. Round the corner is a bakery, coffee shop and ski hire. It is ideally placed. Inside the apartment is wonderful. Two good sized bedrooms, a fantastic hot shower, a closet with ski boot warmers and separate toilet. The open plan dining, living and kitchen is spacious and a perfect place to relax after a days skiing. With two teenage daughters the WiFi and Netflix on the TV meant they couldn’t be happier to be chill out on the lovely big sofa. The board games are a nice touch to bring families together for evening entertainment. The balcony is cost but a lovey place to sit and have a beer whilst taking in the view. I wouldn’t have any hesitation in recommending Le Refuge, it really is a great refuge from the hustle and bustle for a week, or twos, holiday.
