Auberge de Jeunesse HI Chamonix

Very good location, quiet and calm but also just ca 10 min walk to the city center. Parking is plenty. Facilities are clean and there was no wait for the shower. The breakfast was perfectly good. Seriously, this is an affordable place. It's not a luxury hotel but you get everything that's on the label and more than that. There are quiet hours after 10 so there's no ongoing party all night (wasn't noisy at all when I was there) Don't know if it says so but you can do your laundry here as well so if you're travelling through it's a good opportunity.

Location a little bit out of town but there was a bus station just outside the hostel and the train stop was about 10 minutes away so hostel was easy to get to. Excellent and quick check in, staff very friendly and helpful. They also give you a free guest card for the length of your stay which gives discounted bus tickets and use of the train for free between certain stops. The reception provided all the info on this. You can also buy one day access for all the main cable cars around the valley i.e Aguille du Midi for about 30 euros which is great value. Hostel also provided free continental breakfest buffet style which was excellent. The hostel also has a bar which has entertainment most nights with live music etc if you dont fancy going into town. Lastly, hostel had clean toilets and showers and were cleaned regularly. You could also charge your phone in the dorm rooms as each bunk bed had a USB charging point.

Excellent location, close to bus 2 that takes you to Chamonix bus station, cable cars, starting points of many hiking trails. The stuff is very welcoming and kind. I got a lot of helpful tips. Hostel also provides “all day unlimited cable cars pass” for a very discounted price. Highly recommend getting that one. Beds are very comfy and the rooms are clean, breakfast is good choice of things that feel you up for a day. Freshly baked croissants and bread made my mornings. You meet so many interesting people in the hostel, some summit Mont Blanc, some hike, paraglide, do via ferratas. It’s extraordinary place

The place was okay, not the best of course due to the price, but afterall it was OK. 4 beds dorm, with 2 sinks inside the room and a place to put your bags under the bed. And a something that look like a wardrobe but not to put your clothes on it. Checking in was easy and it was very close to the bus station which makes it a plus. 3 main houses, 1 for reception and dining area and pub and 2 houses for dorms. Breakfast had pain au chocolat 😍

The hostel was great value for money. Everything was very clean always and the staff was nice and helpful. The view to the mountains from the hostel was amazing.
