“This place is situated in the most picturesque part of Les Houches. Patrick and Christine are lovely hosts with a super stylish and charming house. Great views, amazing breakfast and tranquility are all in one place. Just remember to hire a car as there is no Uber or cheap taxis to drive you around. It is totally worth the visit. Thank you!”

“"Notre séjour chez Patrick et Christine a été parfait. Leur accueil est irréprochable et chaleureux. Le petit-déjeuner était délicieux et copieux. De plus, la chambre d'hôtes bénéficie d'une superbe localisation aux Houches, avec une vue incroyable sur les sommets enneigés. La chambre est spacieuse et joliment décorée, tout comme l'intégralité du chalet. L'équipement de la chambre est complet : de grands rangements, des produits d'hygiène, des pantoufles, des peignoirs et des bouteilles d'eau sont mis à disposition. Nous recommandons vivement cette adresse." Merci, Stéphanie et Laurent.”

“Ne-am simțit excelent. Din cameră se vedea Mont Blanc. Camera a fost spațioasă, cu baie proprie. Micul dejun a fost pe stil franțuzesc cu bunătăți de calitate. Noi am preferat să lăsăm mașina la cazare și am mers pe jos până la prima stație de autobuz. Coborârea dura aproximativ 20-25 minute. Ne este dor să ne trezim și să vedem acel peisaj de poveste. Vom reveni cu drag”

“Nous avons passé 3 nuits au chalet des grands bois et nous en sommes ravis. Nous avions pris la table d'hôte pour le soir de notre arrivée. C'était super, nous avons passé une belle soirée. Rien à redire, la chambre est superbe, le petit-déjeuner est gourmand, vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés. C'est un endroit magnifique et la vue y est magique. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.”

“Perfecto, no puedo decir otra cosa. Puedes desconectar del bullicio de la gente, ya que se encuentra un poco retirado de los edificios del pueblo, es más bien una pequeña urbanización, con paso de vehículos a sus casas, es decir no hay circulación de vehículos. Las vistas son increíbles, puedes ver todo desde el césped tumbado en las tumbonas que tiene cada habitación, y saliendo desde la habitación al jardín, que está totalmente cuidado puedes recrearte con las vistas, perfectas para dejar volar la imaginación o leer un libro. La habitación es muy amplia y el baño muy espacioso, la zona de ducha es muy amplia. En la parte superior es donde sirven el desayuno, que para los amantes del queso disfrutarán de la variedad, un desayuno completo, bien servido y cuidado. Zona de salón y terraza en el que pasar un rato con los juegos de mesa o simplemente hablando mientras contemplas las vistas al Mont Blanc. En la parte baja de la vivienda se encuentra una nevera a disposición de los huéspedes, y la zona de hamman, que nosotros no pudimos disfrutar por falta de tiempo, ya que el único día que podíamos haber disfrutado de el, estuvimos descansando en el jardín. El servicio por parte de Patrick perfecto, muy atento, amable y nos hizo el favor de servirnos el desayuno antes de tiempo ya que teníamos una visita a primera hora de la mañana, coincidiendo con el inicio del desayuno. Todo perfecto seguro que repetimos.”

“Hier verbleven 6-9 juli 22. Vriendelijk ontvangst door de ook Engels sprekende eigenaars en ook de golden retriever (erg lief en allemansvriend). Locatie is perfect: wat een mooi uitzicht! Kamer is perfect. Erg schoon. Heerlijk rustig. Ontbijt is uitgebreid en lekker. Kan gebruik maken van een gezamenlijke koelkast. Prijs/kwaliteit erg goed in verhouding. Eigenaars zijn vriendelijk en zeer gastvrij. Ik zou er zelf zeker naar teruggaan of aanraden aan anderen.”
