There were clean, you could look up in the sky from the window above your bed. Breakfast was very good.

In the past, le Whymper's operators have provided minibus shuttles to and from the main lifts -- something that is currently not available as part of the stay but would be very nice to have once again. Breakfast and afternoon cake are included in the stay; while the breakfast buffet was passable, a single plate of rather unappetising slices of cake on the side in the common room at tea-time was not up to expectations (and was largely left alone by the residents).

I have stayed at le Whymper on several occasions over the last 15-20 years as its location is second-to-none for access to Chamonix Centre, making it a great option for non-skiers and après-skiers alike. Rooms are clean and functional with good-sized en-suite bathrooms.

Needs a bit of tlc…shower curtain close to falling off, tap in the bathroom sink loose. Breakfast was decent…plenty of coffee, nice pastries, fruit, yogurt etc….scrambled eggs were more or less the only hot item tho and really not that great.

Great location, small but clean rooms, sauna, large lounge

the breakfast room was not heated

Nice, warm room in a very good location.

Rooms very small, very little storage, no dressing gowns

Very clean, great location, lovely sitting area/communal lounge

Stayed in January 2024

It's a small chalet with no elevator so you have to carry your bags upstairs.

Room was small but comfortable, nice modern shower plus hotel has a sauna. Good breakfast. Ski room to store ski equipment. Excellent location, close to town center and parking, friendly and helpful staff.

Bed was quite hard and not particularly comfortable. Room much smaller than I expected, but I understand that we are in Europe and hotel rooms are small. Sauna was lovely.

Clean hotel in a lovely spot in Chamonix. Very nice breakfast and common room. Tea and coffee available daily at your leisure.

Fabulous location. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Breakfast was great. Highly recommend

Stayed in October 2023

The smell in the hallway, the breakfast was a bit limited, the fruit salad was a bit spoiled, and there was no decaffeinated coffee. The blanket on the bed full of dust and kind of dirty.

The location is great, near restaurants and a grocerie store. For a last minute, and just one night it was ok.

Stayed in October 2023

Walls were a bit thin: the staircase was right next to the bedroom so we heard quite a few people walking up/down. Breakfast selection fell a bit short of expectations with all pastries being pre-baked and lukewarm by the time we got to breakfast.

Great location and charming little home-turned-hotel. Staff was very friendly and showed us how to open the door and showed us the room. They showed us the spa area though we didn’t try it. Hotel was just a one minute walk from the Main Street and another three minutes from the city center.

It is a chalet so expect to be pulling your suitcase up the stairs

Near everything, breakfast was delicious, they supplied umbrellas for rainy days, hotel found us a taxi for our heavy luggage.

Stayed in September 2023

Bit of a back-alley, shaded by taller buildings. Extra small rooms for two people. Someone has to stand in the toilet when the other person goes around the bed and out of the room.

Clean, nice common spaces, good breakfast. Nice, clean bathroom.

Stayed in September 2023

The rooms are quite small and open out onto a semi-public area. It didn't feel very private.

We enjoyed the upstairs lounge space and the breakfast was great.

Stayed in June 2023

We were in Chamonix during a very hot time and would have loved air con or a fan in the room.

We loved our stay here. The property is in a great location in town but in a quiet area tucked away. They really thought of the little touches and served fresh cake every afternoon. Staff were super helpful in planning our days too.

No fridge in room. Average breakfast. I had a room with queen bed, which was two singles put together. Unfortunately the beds would move apart just a little, through the night,but enough to be noticeable it- needs a mattress topper, or something sumilar, to prevent this happening

Great location. Very clean and quiet. Lovely spacious bathroom with a big bath.

Stayed in September 2023

The location is great. I loved the lounge for passing some time. The breakfast was pretty nice and the coffee was great. There is sauna and spa, I didn't know that before I got there.

Since there was no parking space for our car and all parking areas were full, we had to park away quite far, this could be communicated better before booking; hotels with their own parking area definitely get a plus, since it gets crazy there even in summer.

Perfectly located in the heart of Charmonix with a great breakfast in the common room upstairs. The gondola to the Aguille du Midi can be reached in about 15 min by foot and also the train station to the Mer de Glace is close by. Though the rooms are really very small, the bathroom was rather big and everything was clean.

Stayed in August 2023

I stayed there 3 times in August 2023, twice had nice sized rooms. The last time for same price had tiny room. My cousin in next door room had a bathroom that was not fixed up like ours. So the rooms are not all the same.

I did not have breakfast at the hotel. Staff were friendly, room was comfortable and good bathroom. Excellent location.

Stayed in August 2023

It was very hot. Our first floor room did not have a window to open. It only had a door that led out to a small landing with stairs. We felt a little uncomfortable leaving that door open all night.

Great location and staff.

It would get really hot in the afternoon , I was on the top of the floor

The Location

The room did not meet my expectations from the photos online. It was also a heatwave in Chamonix, 37 degrees, not common so the rooms were extremely hot with no fan or AC
