About this property

Central Chamonix flat with private terrace and stunning views

Please note this property can only be booked for a maximum of 30 days per stay.

Large, south facing penthouse apartment with spectacular views of Chamonix and the Mont Blanc range. 200 yards from the central square of Chamonix and 20 yards from the railway station, from where ski buses to all pistes depart regularly. This apartment has a large dining room and kitchen combined; a master bedroom with double bed and small balcony; a further bedroom with 4 beds (2 in bunk, 1 stow-away); sitting room with double sofa bed and small balcony; bathroom with double wash basin and combined bath/shower; separate loo; large private terrace (size of the entire flat again) and private underground parking for one car. It is equipped with TV, DVD, Broad Band Internet access dish washer and washing machine. This is a non-smoking apartment.

Chamonix is an unbelievable mountain town - not at all like a typical purpose built resort. Steeped in history - from alpine climbing to the Olympics. The apartment is in the centre of the town with dozens of bars and restaurants, discos, shops and the Brevent & Auguille du Midi cable cars. Enjoy awesome views of the Mont Blanc range from the apartment. There's a great mix of ski terrain from town centre blues & reds to some of the best, deepest and steepest off-piste slopes in the World!

Geneva airport is a short 60 mile transfer away (easily arranged) or the motorway/ peage virtually runs to the door from Calais for Brits who drive. The central railway station is a 2 minute walk away so you don't even need a car once you're in town. Chamonix is an outstanding venue year-round! Buses to the whole of Chamonix valley leave from the station.

Summer details: Chamonix’s a year-round adventure play ground. You can walk, climb (any style to any standard), paraglide, hang glide, parachute (45 minutes away), mountain bike, fish, golf, party, eat, go bowling, swim, play tennis, dance at nightclubs, sight see, break out the water colour paints or gamble at the casino! It is all here for you.

Fantastic
We loved our stay in Chamonix and at John's apartment which we will certainly be looking to book again the next time we are visiting. The apartment is spacious, well equipped and perfectly located. Chamonix is not a ski in ski out town and we were a bit taken aback about that at first, but realised quickly that is partly what makes it special, a real town in the mountains, and it's really not far to walk to the bus stop to take you up to the mountain in 2 minutes. Thank you John for a lovely stay.

Great stay for UTMB
This is a lovely place, very well equipped and in the perfect location for exploring chamonix and the alps. We were there for the UTMB festival and the location was perfect, just a couple of minutes walk to the start and finish. The communication with the owner was excellent and they were responsive and helpful, providing lots of information to help the stay go well. Chamonix is an amazing place and we would highly recommend this accommodation as a place to stay and explore the area! Thanks!

Lovely situation. Chamonix gives benefits of holiday feel and perfect to get away to the outdoors with plenty of facilities. Apartment was maybe in need of a little TLC but the reasonable price reflects that.

Room with a View
Great little property, I can imagine it would be crowded with the maximum or 8 but perfect for up to 5. The view out the living room and bedroom with the double bed is stunning, I could never tire of that view. There is noticeable street noise in the living room and double bedroom from about 5pm to 2am but I guess that also depends on time of year but balance that against being in the middle of all the shops and bars and its well worth it. Having the underground parking was great, we got the 6 series BMW in there just you would not want to go much bigger than that. Its a very well outfitted apartment with everything you might need including a fondue. Very happy with the stay will hopefully be back there again one day soon.

Fantastic Apartment
Just returned from a fabulous week in this Chamonix apartment. The apartment has everything you could possibly need for a self catering holiday and was plenty big enough for our large family. It is warm and cosy and we were blown away by the stunning views from every window and perfect central location. I was able to have a bit of me time out on the terrace with a glass wine and book in hand- heaven! Due to covid we had to move our booking and John the owner could not have been more accomodating and responsive. Thank you!

A Chamonix Gem!
We loved staying at this lovely condo! Everything was very clean and very comfortable. The terrace was fantastic. The location was great, being right in the center of town. John was always so helpful and quick to reply to any of our questions. We would definitely stay here again! A very special place!

Beautiful, spacious apartment in a superb location
We have just returned from a fabulous 11 night stay in Chamonix. John's apartment was perfect for us in every way. Clean, well equipped, warm and welcoming with a spectacular view from every window; furthermore there is a very large roof terrace to sit and enjoy some 'apres ski' surrounded by gorgeous mountain views. We were very fortunate to have enjoyed exceptional amounts of snow this year which made for some superb skiing! The apartment is centrally located with an abundance of bars restaurants and shops literally on the door step. The bus stops close by meant we could access all ski resorts with relative ease. I would have no hesitation in choosing to stay in this apartment again; I wouldn't highly recommend John's apartment, I would specially recommend it!

Fantastic apartment in centre of Chamonix!
This is a fantastic property in the centre of Chamonix. It is a good size, has great views of the mountains and the bonus of a roof terrace where the kids enjoyed making snowmen. All items you would hope to find at a home away from home are present and it was very easy to stay and enjoy our time as a family of five with three young children. John is very responsive to email communication and answered any queries we had very quickly and efficiently. If you are after an apartment in the centre of Chamonix you will be pushed to find something better.

Apartment with great view in central location
We stayed in this apartment with our four kids and there was enough room for all of us. The apartment is centrally located, stores and some of the cable cars are in walking distance. The kitchen is well equipped so it was easy to prepare meals. But the best is of course the huge roof top terrace with views to the Brévent, Aiguille du Midi and Mont Blanc. A great place to have supper after a long day of hiking!

A real find within a lovely village.The flat was exactly as described by the Owner,the separate living room,with all the UK television channels,a joy, and the view from the main rooms and terrace splendid. As dog owners two walks close by were a boon, as was the underground parking. Well done John
