We stayed at the La Folie Douce Hotel while Chamonix was mobbed by ultra athletes competing in the 2024 UTMB ultra marathon, so the room prices were sky-high. We paid much to much for a very small dormitory style room. The hotel was clean an well maintained, and the buffet breakfast was outstanding. I would recommend this hotel if the price was acceptable.

The hotel has a nice pool area and garden area to play or sit and read. The inside of the hotel and the patio caters to a party atmosphere and has nice facilities for that including game rooms. The lobby has a nice ice water station.
The actual hotel room was extremely cramped with no hangers or closet for clothes and very little space to set luggage down.

Although the property offers a great location and beautiful grounds,
It felt like a CLUB MED with tons of partying at the pool and loud music in the outside on hotel property! A BIG disappointment!!
