We have just spent a lovely week at Les Bossonades for our annual skiing holiday. The apartment is well equipped with nicely appointed rooms, a kitchen with lots of handy equipment, cutlery & crockery as well as ample parking and a good-sized ski locker in the basement. We appreciated the high chair and cot bed being available on arrival for our 1 year old. Having flown in from the UK early that morning to Geneva, we called at Carrefour in Sallanches for a food shop before making our way to Les Bossonades. It was easy to find being on the main through road to Chamonix, but the apartment itself is on the other side of the building / block and so there is no intrusive road noise. The walk into Chamonix was about 30 minutes on foot, or you could easily drive down in 10 minutes. A number of the car parks give you up to 1 hour of free parking before you have to pay. The apartment gives easy access to Les Houches which we visited on one day and took the cable car up Bellvue. Giving Chamonix’s prominence as the epicentre of all things mountaineering & outdoorsy, there is no such thing as a ‘bargain’ here but having a car is certainly handy as you can head out to Sallanches for big food shops if staying as a family. There is a Super-U in Chamonix, but its priced accordingly. Overall, I’d highly recommend staying here – the contact from Emily & Alex in the run up to our stay was very reassuring and the welcome from Kathryn with lots of useful local information was also very much appreciated.
