We stayed at the La Folie Douce Hotel while Chamonix was mobbed by ultra athletes competing in the 2024 UTMB ultra marathon, so the room prices were sky-high. We paid much to much for a very small dormitory style room. The hotel was clean an well maintained, and the buffet breakfast was outstanding. I would recommend this hotel if the price was acceptable.

The hotel has a nice pool area and garden area to play or sit and read. The inside of the hotel and the patio caters to a party atmosphere and has nice facilities for that including game rooms. The lobby has a nice ice water station. The actual hotel room was extremely cramped with no hangers or closet for clothes and very little space to set luggage down.

Although the property offers a great location and beautiful grounds, It felt like a CLUB MED with tons of partying at the pool and loud music in the outside on hotel property! A BIG disappointment!!

A lovely hotel which has a very cool modern interior design look and feel. I was really happy that the room I saw on the photos when booking was the room we got. Great view from the window. Breakfast was good but could have done with some more hot food options. All though there is a lot to choose from. Walking distance to main town and not far from the cable car that we booked. All in all I would stay here again.
