Fantastic week in chamonix
Chalet Oscar is in a fantastic location central to town. We had a big group (6 adults and one infant) which works well in the layout of the chalet. It is only 8 mins walk to a great bakery, 2 minutes walk to a fantastic bar and about 10 minute into the centre of town. Access to activities was brilliant and we got free train passes from the tourist office which made for a great week when not much else was open. The chalet has a great layout with the ground floor being completely self contained (its own kitchen / living area). Only minor issue was the traffic noise if staying on the top floor of the chalet from early morning. Great host communication!

Lovely chalet
Can’t fault anything about the chalet. The accommodation is clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped; everything has been well thought through. We rented this as part of my partner’s 50th birthday celebrations with family joining us for some of the stay. They were all very impressed with the chalet, and although we had a full house it never felt crowded.

Great place for family.
This was a great house for our family of 7. Everything was just a few minutes walk or bus ride for us. Easy walk to access Monte Blanc Gondola. Also away from the noise of town center. Great views.

Chamonix spring getaway
Family of 5 in the springtime - plenty of room to spread out but still come together for meals and social time. The house is clean, modern, and well-appointed. Some of us really enjoyed the sauna after a day of hiking. Things to note - the house is on 3 levels. You can get a car near levels 1 and 2 for loading/unloading. The master is on the top level with a small winding staircase. The entrance for Aiguille du Midi is an easy 7-10 minute walk mostly downhill. You can watch the cable cars go up/down from the house. While there's a pizza restaurant close by, most of the main part of town is a 15-20 minute walk.

About the host

Hosted by Grant

Host profile image
We purchased the Chalet in 2016 as a slightly dated 1960's building requiring a lot of updating and renovation - so after two years of major renovation, internal and external, taking it back to an empty shell - having taken the roof off, removed floors and almost all internal walls, added two extensions....we're really pleased with the result. We hope you will be too.
