“Gorgeous and very cosy chalet.”

Reviewed 15 Jan 2018

Beatiful chalet with a very warm feel. We stayed here with another family and found it spacious and comfortable for us all especially as it has 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms all of which were kept to a very high standard. The chalet was lovely and warm and gave you a cosy feel in the evenings...perfect for enjoying a coffee and playing card games with friends! Getting there from Geneva airport was so easy as was getting about on the train which stopped right outside the chalet. The thermal baths were only a short walk away which both us adulds and kids enjoyed so much. We would love to come back and stay again!

Just stayed at the Chalet for a couple of days! The setting is so nice facimg Dents du Midi. Train stop is right in front of the house and brings you to the skiing region within 10mins if you don't want to take the car... The rooms are so nice and there's nothing missing you need. Everything is very clean and nicely furnished. I can totally recommend that place.

“comfortable chalet, excellent location, great value for money”

Reviewed 14 Jan 2014

We stayed for a week in the ski season. The chalet is perfectly located with easy door-to-door access to the ski lifts and all local facilities by train. It is well equipped with plenty of space and we were very comfortable (2 adults and 3 children). It's also ideally situated for the thermal baths.
