The Alpina Eclectic Hotel is in the centre of Chamonix and has amazing views of the Mont Blanc and Brevent mountain ranges. The bus stop is just across the road from the hotel, making it really easy to get to the cable cars, and the Savoy ski lift is just a few minutes' walk. There's a Vista bar and restaurant and also a Lounge Bar which all have amazing views. The lounge contains an unconstructed chandelier above the bar and truly creates the perfect atmosphere to sip a cocktail and socialise after the slopes.

Spectacular views

Providing constant reminders that you're surrounded by beautiful mountain terrain with its many viewpoints, Alpina Eclectic Hotel uses warm and contemporary interiors to highlight the snowy outdoors. The Vista Restaurant, located on the 7th floor, gives you 180-degree views overlooking the Monc Blanc chain and the bedrooms are designed with the natural landscape in mind, with floor to ceiling windows - so you can really appreciate these mountains throughout your stay. 

Excellent facilities

Alpina Eclectic Hotel will become your home away from home with access to all the facilities you need, right on your doorstep. The hotel benefits from its own ski hire shop, as well as two bars, a spa with a jacuzzi, sauna, hammam and a fitness room. It even has its own grocery store! We do encourage you to explore the rest of Chamonix but if you're looking for an easy holiday with everything you might need within reach, then this is the perfect option for you. 

Chamonix

  • Ski to an altitude of 3,842m
  • 6 green, 30 blue, 31 red and 10 black runs
  • Around 150km of skiing or snowboarding

Set against truly spectacular scenery at the foot of the majestic Mont Blanc, the resort's setting is both unique and breath-taking. Chamonix offers an excellent range of sporting and leisure facilities with an unrivalled nightlife whilst Les Houches is quieter but full of Alpine charm. 

Chamonix has been awarded two Flocon Vert snowflakes, demonstrating the resort's commitment to environmental preservation and highlighting its dedication to sustainable development. Guests can benefit from a guest card included with your accommodation, this gives you free access to the trains and buses in the Chamonix valley. The main fleet has a range of electric buses and hybrid buses to transport you around the valley. Chamonix has also begun the process of requesting UNESCO recognition for the Mont Blanc massif.

Challenging terrain and a vibrant centre makes Chamonix a favourite ski resort

With 90% of the terrain above 2000m, Chamonix has for many years attracted skiers looking for good snow. The choice of skiing is amazing, from cruisy blues and fun reds at Le Brevent, Flegere and Le Tour to more challenging runs at Les Grands Montets. There's even the renowned Valle Blanche, a 23km descent, an unmarked, unmaintained and unpatrolled off-piste run down into Chamonix.

There's an efficient ski bus service which links the five main ski areas with our accommodation in Chamonix and the nearby village of Les Houches, so you can experience a new area almost every day.
