Chalet Hôtel le Prieuré & Spa has a name that dates back to the middle ages with Le Prieure once marking the centre of the village of Chamonix. Today, the Chalet Hôtel le Prieuré & Spa still sits very close to Chamonix’s centre and is the perfect base for a walking holiday or those wanting to explore the delights of Chamonix.

Modern design and facilities

The hotel has undergone a number of upgrades in recent years which saw rooms redesigned to offer modern, chalet-style design with plenty of character to reflect the mountain location. The most recent renovation saw the opening of the Cinq Mondes spa, which offers a small indoor pool, hammam, whirlpool and outdoor sauna.

A Garden with a View

The hotel has a small garden area with a lawn and sun loungers that face the Mont Blanc. It's the perfect spot for unwinding in the summer sun and taking in those breath-taking views. Inside, you'll find a bar where you can purchase drinks and relax in the lounge area.

Chamonix

A true bucket-list spot for mountain lovers, Chamonix is a busy town that buzzes with energy year-round. Because of the mega mountains that surround it (Chamonix sits at the foot of the Mont Blanc massif, to name just one) and the extreme athletes that come here to play, it’s known as the adventure capital of Europe. But for the rest of us, those towering mountain peaks and the lush valleys make the most breath-taking backdrop for hiking, biking or simply relaxing.

Walking holidays in Chamonix

Walking holidays to Chamonix have been popular since the mid 1700s thanks to its location on the Tour du Mont Blanc. There’s a huge choice of walking trails here, from easy strolls to challenging hikes to suit all paces. The Lac Blanc trail is perfect for a scenic day walk. This popular route offers stunning views of Mont Blanc and is a well-marked trail suitable for most hikers. For those seeking more of a challenge, the Grand Balcon Sud day hike winds through forests, meadows and high alpine terrain. Along the way, you’ll find traditional mountain refuges, where you can stop for refreshments, soak in the views, and experience the charm of Alpine hospitality.

Panoramic views on the trails within the Tour du Mont Blanc

The Chamonix valley has one of the best summer lift systems in the Alps, with cable cars, gondolas, funiculars and chairlifts giving you easy access to incredible viewpoints. Take the Aiguille du Midi cable car that whisks you up the Mont Blanc massif to the top of Europe and panoramic views of the French, Swiss and Italian Alps.

Explore the Mer de Glace (the Sea of Ice)

The Mer de Glace is the largest glacier in France at 7 kilometres long and 200 metres deep - it was the Mer de Glace that put Chamonix on the map as a holiday destination back in the 1800s. Although fast receding, during some summer months you can visit the caves inside this living glacier, with its ice sculptures and crystals, as well as the Glacorium exhibition museum nearby that’s dedicated to glaciology.
