Week in Chamonix village
We moved to Chamonix village after 2 nights at Les Houches, and spent the week in 2 hotels. It was wonderfully sunny and we enjoyed warm weather and blue skies everyday! However, there was also little snow, but ski conditions were enjoyable with hard packed snow at 2000m+, though not great for snowboarding I would imagine...

My first (lasting) snow in Europe
First things first: we had no idea we were staying at a Best Western! We pulled up and saw the "Best Western" sign along with the Les Aiglons (which was the only name we'd found online), and were pretty surprised. It actually turned out to be the nicest hotel I've been in during any of my trips yet though, so no disappointment there. Chamonix was …
Chffing down

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Les Aiglons Resort & Spa Chamonix
Enjoyed the location in front of Chamonix Sud bus station (to access any of the ski valleys of Chamonix), and the newly renovated hotel. The restaurant was also good, but the hotel is central enough to walk out and eat at a different place everyday.
