About

Since 1910, our establishment has embodied a rich tradition of welcome and hospitality. Originally a Crèmerie, then a family guesthouse, the Hôtel de l'Arveyron is an authentic and warm place to live, perfectly in tune with the open house spirit it has adopted.

We are proud to be a refuge where everyone can find themselves, come together and reconnect in a welcoming, inclusive and caring environment. We're a place where conviviality and sharing are at the heart of everything we do.

With 16 beds in mixed dormitories on the edge of the Bouchet Forest, we are determined to create a memorable experience for all our guests.

Whether you're a traveller looking for adventure, a group of friends looking for an unforgettable time or a local looking to discover your region from a new angle, we're here to welcome you!

Summary of traveller reviews

L'Arveyron Open House in Chamonix offers excellent staff and a delicious breakfast. While some rooms are compact and the location requires a bus to reach town, the comfortable beds and clean facilities are highlights. It's a good option for travellers seeking a quiet stay.

The beds themselves were clean and comfortable and the locker was nice. you need to bring your own lock though . The bathroom and shower were practicpractically the same room as the dorm ( biggest downside in my opinion) . the included breakfast was really good with loads of fresh baked goods and good coffee. if you don't have a car the place is a bit out of the way but still very accessable via bus

Great staff and breakfast. Rooms were very cramped and hot and there was very little socializing at this hostel. The bus ride to/from town is doable but also annoying when you’re doing it multiple days in a row. There weren’t individual places to lock things up in the 8 bed dorm either.
