La Folie Douce Hotel
The legendary après ski brand, La Folie Douce, brings its vibrant energy to Chamonix with its unique hotel! Situated in a prime location, the Savoy Palace offers unparalleled access to the slopes, with the Savoy lift just a short stroll away, whisking you to the Brévent and Flégère ski areas. Enjoy the convenience of ski-in/ski-out access, placing both exhilarating pistes and the charming resort centre within easy reach.
Evenings in Chamonix are yours to discover, with the hotel primarily offering a bed and breakfast basis, allowing you to sample the town's diverse culinary scene. However, the hotel itself boasts tempting options, from the gourmet French cuisine of La Fruitiere to quick bites at Le Kiosque and traditional Savoyard flavours at Le Mayen. And, of course, the renowned après ski experience awaits daily at the After Mountain Party Bar from 5-8pm, with DJs, dancers, singers, and musicians creating an unforgettable atmosphere.
For relaxation, indulge in the hotel's spacious spa with a sauna and steam room, or take a dip in the outdoor pool while admiring breathtaking views of Mont Blanc. Yoga classes provide an opportunity for rejuvenation. Choose between comfortable 3* Access rooms or the more spacious and well-appointed 4* Premium rooms for your stay.
