Great 5 night stay.
Good budget option in Chamonix, just a 20 min walk into the town, in a nice location next to a lake and the start of a woodland walk, giving another longer option to get into town. Great value breakfast and friendly helpful staff. Wifi worked just fine. Staff made sure I d have no issues getting to my room late at night , after staff had gone home. Would consider staying here again.

Great spot to visit Mont Blanc
Lovely room in a timeless hotel in an amazing location. Great breakfast, helpful and accommodating - good food in restaurant 10 steps away too. Suitable location for a 35min walk to the L’Aguille du Midi.

Nice views of Mont Blanc, shower curtains smell like urine and the pillows were uncomfortable, but a good experience for sure

Comfortable stay
The location of Hotel des lacs is perfect for someone who wants to be in Chamonix for UTMB because downtown is only a short walk giving easy access to race activities and restaurants. The Hotel is located across the street from a beautiful park with a little lake. Our room was clean quiet and simple. Breakfast was available for a small additional charge. The staff was friendly and helpful. We felt at home.

Good location a couple of kilometres outside the very center of town. Bus stop just outside so easy to access or a short walk. Easy access to trails for running, hiking and climbing.
Friendly staff.
Breakfast very simple and limited but was offered which was convenient. Dont have high hopes.
During our stay the elevator was broken.

No lake hotel!
Very small room and bed. Also, small bath and shower. No tea or coffee in the room.
No real lake in front as name suggests. Only a small pond.

Bien
Nous avons séjourné deux nuits dans cet hôtel situé à une vingtaine de minutes à pieds du centre de Chamonix. Accueil très agréable, chambre et salle de bain correctes. Bonne literie. Bon petit déjeuner servi sous forme de buffet.
Le parking est un plus.
