 Poster: A snowHead

Can anyone recommend a cheapish place to stay near Chamonix for a Friday night with a view to hitting the slopes there earlyish on the Saturday morning prior to checking in at our accommodation for the week?

Ann, you could try the "Auberge de l'Orangerie" in Passy - awesome food, I think cheapish beds. Or one of the chain hotels around Annemasse/Bonneville/Cluses = e.g. Mercure or IBIS

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

worth checking out Sallanches, too. Very close. I think one of the hotels there is IBIS, but they're all easy to find on the web.

Last year we stopped at the IBIS on the A41 services at Bourg en breese, Which was cheap and cheerful and then, and then set off at 06:30 the following moring and was in Chamonix getting skis for 08:00 and on the slopes for 09:00

I just want to thank you for this recommendation - it looks really nice and we have booked! So much nicer than Formule 1 where we stayed last year!
Now researching for something similar on way back 1 week later in Dijon area

Ann, excellent, please let me know how you get on (very well I hope). We dropped in during the summer for a quick lunch, me having said it looked quite nice. We expected standard regional food. Were we surprised and delighted or what? We had a very very awesome lunch. Hopefully the rest of the set up works as well, and unless it's changed hands I am sure it will. Their attention to detail was just brilliant - and Sophie is ex-hotel/restaurant trade so knows what's she's talking about.
Please do feed back!
