Skiing in Argentiere, Chamonix, Mont Blanc: Although Argentiere boasts the most challenging area in the Alps the surrounding area is also good for beginners and intermediates alike and the ESF French ski school is one of the best in Europe.
The village is very child friendly and children are welcome at restaurants and there is a great crèche facility close to the ski slopes called the Panda Club.

Summer in Argentiere: The summer can be relaxing or energetic. There are great mountain walks or hikes with breathtaking views. Paragliding off the top of Brevent with an experienced instructor, white water rafting, canoeing, mountain biking, glacier walking, ice climbing, rock climbing with an indoor climbing wall at Les Houches are all possible. The Plan Praz 18 hole golf course is a 7 minute drive away and there is riding, tennis, swimming, cycling and nearby.

Getting to Argentiere: There are many airport transfer services running between Argentiere/Chamonix and Geneva Airport at very competitive rates. Most of the major car hire companies operate at Geneva airport. Easiest to hire from the Swiss rather than the French side. We can also arrange a shuttle bus for you on request.

Comfy apartement near Chamonix

The apartment is on a nice location in Argentiere close to Chamonix. It is exactly as described, but more important, it feels like a place in which the owners live as well with great pleasure when they visit it. Good beds, well equipped kitchen. We liked the terrace as well for a drink in the evening.

Wonderful apartment in the mountains

The aparment is beautiful, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. The location is perfect, in the heart of the lovely village, Argentiere, with easy parking directly opposite and close to restaurants, cafes, bakery etc. Summer hiking was spectacular!

Nice stay in Argentière

The apartment is as described, very comfortable and cozy. We are a familiy of 5 and felt at home. It is located in Argentière where there are afew shops and restaurants and a supermarket in walking distance. To go skiing you can either walk to the skylift of Les Grands Montets (10 mins walk) or take the bus to the other ski lifts, since the bus stop is 50 meter away. Communication with Christopher (the owner) and Wendy who is taking care of the apartment localy was easy and efficient. We would love to go again.

Maison Rose - Argentiere

An extremely well equipped, comfortable apartment within easy walking access of all the shops, bars and restaurants of Argentiere and, most importantly, within easy reach of the slopes. Parking across the road at the train station but if full, long stay car park at the Grand Montets ski lift proved to be an equally good alternative. A boot warmer to ensure that the ski boots are warm and 'comfortable' to put on in the morning, wifi, well equipped kitchen, tv, comfy beds, loads of hot water and a contact person never more than a phone call away in case of need. Coupled with some great weather and incredible snow, one of the best places we have ever stayed in our favourite sking resort. Highly recommended.

Appartement très agréable et très bien situé

L’appartement est idéalement situé à Argentière, juste à côté de l’arrêt des navettes desservant les stations de ski et à proximité du téléphérique. Il est très joliment décoré et bien équipé, tout est en parfait état. Pour les familles à noter que les machines à laver / sécher sont au sous sol et très utilisées mais à part ce détail tout était très bien.

Tres bel appartement, très bien situé

3 belles chambres. Jolie deco. En rez de chaussé mais quand même une jolie vue. En centre de village. On avait loué une consigne (50€ la semaine) en bas des pistes pour éviter de porter les skis le matin avec les enfants...donc aucun souci lié à la distance du pied des pistes. Appartement bien équipé.

February Ski Holiday

This is an excellent property, which is conveniently located within the heart of Argentiere. Only a short walk to the bakers, super market, restaurants, bars and ski station. Myself (and three old school friends) have stayed in Argentiere on many occasions over the past 15 years and this is by far the best property we have stayed in!! Highly recommended.

Wonderful apartment, close to lifts, right in the centre of beautiful Argentière

Apartment had everything you could need, Chris provided excellent advise in the lead up on best places to hire skis, take lessons, buy tickets. Guest book filled with useful information. Kitchen well equipped. Perfect for a winter family ski holiday. Town itself is quaint and easy to get to a range of ski resorts, however Argentière was our favourite. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a holiday in Mont Blanc.

Perfect for our entire family

We had a fantastic time! The condo was perfect, so spacious and beautiful. We walked from the condo to ski at Argentiere which ended up being our favorite mountain in the Chamonix area because it's the most difficult and we are a pretty hard-core ski family. We also walked each morning around the corner from the condo, to the bakery for fresh baked goods. The village has some great restaurants and we also drove each night about 7 minutes by car to Chamonix and did serious ice skating, Luge, shopping and dining. Last, the condo is only 20 minutes to Coumayer ski resort in Italy which was amazing!! Thank you for letting us stay there!!

A family Christmas

Our family of 6 spent Christmas in this wonderful apartment. It was a the perfect spot. All the facilities one needed. Great support from the owner and local property manager which made everything stress free. And wonderful location next to free car park, bus stop and train station not to mention the line up of bars, restaurants and shops all on hand. Can't rave enough about this place. Fantastic.

The best apartment in the Alps!

We spent just under a week at this beautiful, perfectly located apartment in Argentiere. Clean, warm, exceptional interiors, with all the kitchen amenities you could possibly need, this truly was a home away from home. With only an hour's drive from Geneva, Argentiere is possibly one of the most easily-reached ski resorts I have ever visited. Although on this occasion we were not there to ski, we certainly were not limited for things to do. There are copious walking and hiking routes, and many of the bike hire shops were still open for business, as well as various spas in Chamonix - perfect for a cloudy day. I could not recommend this apartment highly enough, and cannot wait to go back!

A great stay...

This is a beautifully presented apartment in the centre of Argentiere. The village itself is very attractive -- we used the cable cars to visit the glacier, did some white water rafting and had endless turns on the luge in Chamonix. A great choice for an active summer break - highly recommended.

Cosy, comfortable, homely apartment

I stayed in this apartment for a week and honestly cannot fault it. It's such a lovely, homely place to come back to after a long day on the slopes. The apartment is so beautifully decorated, the beds are super comfortable, its really well equipped, and is in a great location, close to all local restaurants, shops and ski areas, as well as Chamonix, which is only a short drive away - I will definitely be coming back!

Perfection

We only went for a long weekend but could have stayed in this apartment for ever! It is so cosy, comfortable, stylish and well equipped. Everything worked. It was easy to find. We drove and parked the car thirty yards away. Everything is on your door step. Spoilt for choice of patisseries, supermarket, brilliant and unpretentious restaurants and even a pizza takeaway which we were eating within 15 minutes of phoning them. i can't recommend this apartment highly enough.

Superbly appointed apartment

We have become use to going ski in/ski out whenever possible. This apartment isn't but it did not impinge on our enjoyment at all. The car park is just across the road and then a 2 minute drive to the Argentiere main lifts where there is a large car park. It is in the middle of Argentiere where there are some very good restaurants/bars/shops etc. The apartment is so homely and clean with all you would expect and more!! We will definitely return.

Very happy to take your enquiries!

Why they chose this property

This is our home in the mountains, occupying the ground floor of a substantial house. We think that you will find it far more comfortable than the standard holiday let. It has recently been furnished and equipped to a high level. As well as a well equipped kitchen and living room, we have provided a 6 large ski boot dryer - no need for cold / wet ski boots! The apartment is very accessible from Geneva, is right in the centre of a great village and a fantastic location for both winter and summer holidays.

What makes this property unique

Comfortable, convenient, homely.
