Brand new for the 2018/19 winter season, La Folie Douce offers a truly unique and eclectic hotel experience in Chamonix. Situated at the base of the Savoy lift (linked to the Brévent-Flégère ski area), it is the only ski-in ski-out hotel in Chamonix - a self-proclaimed "Ski Palace", which also offers stunning views of Mont-Blanc. The atmosphere is an heady mix of warm hospitality, world renowned après entertainment and, if all that partying gets a little too much, first-class relaxation, thanks to the 640 m² spa area.
The 250 rooms at La Folie Douce offer outstanding views of the mountains and are split into 3 different categories. Standard Access rooms are simply furnished and come equipped with free WiFi and a safe as standard. Premium rooms are designed to offer that "little bit extra", both in terms of furnishings and amenities, and include a hairdryer, tea and coffee making facilities and bathrobes and slippers. Finally, there is the option to stay in a dormitory, with a women-only option available.
Although primarily available to book on a room only or bed and breakfast basis, La Folice Douce is home to 5 onsite restaurants. La Petite Cuisine is a family style restaurant serving generous French-style dishes made from local produce. Alternatively, Le Mayen serves up the ever popular fondue and raclette with a bold new twist, whilst Le Frutière is a dynamic, modern restaurant serving bistro style dishes incorporating a wealth of Savoyard delicacies. Furthermore, La Piazza on the terrace serves up tasty bites during après ski, calling on the culinary traditions just the other side of Mont-Blanc, whilst Le Kiosque is the ideal pit stop to grab and go.
It wouldn't be right not to mention the après ski at La Folice Douce; guests can experience the legendary high-tempo après party each day, whilst the hotel's Bar Jannsen is a more relaxed option with its extensive cocktail and wine list. Alternatively, the wellness area at La Folie Douce provides the perfect opportunity to take a break from the party. The spa area includes 8 massage rooms, a outdoor heated pool with year-round terrace, 2 saunas and a steam room. Plus there is a fitness room and yoga lessons on offer to pay back the body and mind. (Extra charge for spa access for Standard Access rooms).
A hotel for all types of ski group, La Folie Douce is also home to a children's club for kids aged 4 to 12 years (payable locally).
