Nestled in the valley of Chamonix and surrounded by mountains, the most luxurious 5* Hotel Mont Blanc is the perfect place to stay during any season. Stunning mountain views and a heated outdoor pool with a separate hot tub make your stay here a relaxing one. Summer was the season that I chose to visit, and the hotel was the perfect place to stay during my road trip in Europe.

Style
Opened in 1849, Hotel Mont Blanc fuses the traditional Alpine look of sky-blue window shutters, balconies, and white exterior with its interior’s classic contemporary chic. Think black and white tiles, chandeliers and contemporary artwork. Travellers have been staying here since the 19th century due to the allure of the hotel’s service, style and location.
Service
First-class standards are the norm at Hotel Mont Blanc. The hotel staff made us feel very special when they found out we were celebrating a special event. A luxurious Clarins spa offers massages alongside sauna and steam sessions, and a first-class restaurant serves tempting dishes. Touches like this make a good hotel into a great one.
Rooms
Every morning the stunning views of the mountains will start your day with a smile. Well equipped with comfortable beds, fluffy robes and slippers and exclusive Clarins products. Small touches make the stay memorable, from daily weather forecasts to home-baked cookies.
Dining
Of course, le petit dejeuner is a treat first thing in the morning and sets you up for the day. At the same time, evening dining in Le Matafan restaurant is a fabulous event with seasonal dishes cooked to perfection and eaten in the opulent red velvet setting of this luxurious space. The contemporary and alpine design has resulted in a stunning dining environment.
Outdoor Area
Hotel Mont Blanc has a beautiful outdoor area, and a highlight for me was relaxing in the outdoor heated pool and hot tub. Watching the paragliders descend from the mountains directly behind the hotel was terrific, and I nearly booked a flight for myself!
If you tire of the pool, the hotel’s grassy area has comfortable seating areas with waiter service. Hotel Mont-Blanc offers everything you could desire to stay in this excellent location in the French Alps.
