La Savoyarde is a family hotel located on the heights of Chamonix, ten minutes from the centre of town, and offers a splendid view of the Massif du Mont Blanc. This quiet country cottage was built in 1830, making it one of the oldest Chamionard houses in the region. Although newly renovated and modernised, it still wears the charm and style of the 19th-century. Guestrooms have a personalized décor in the traditional Savoyarde style. They are tastefully decorated and furnished and equipped with modern en suite facilities. Most rooms offer a pleasant view of the mountains. Guests staying at the hotel will love the close proximity (50 metres) of the Brevant cable car that provides access up the sunny south side of the Chamonix Valley. Notable guests of La Savoyard have included the famous automobile designer André Citroen, the brilliant English writer Graham Greene and the British Field Marshall Montgomery who came to Chamonix twice, and both times the city requested the hotel for him.
