Chalet Tissières, is truly a unique place, which is set in a spectacular location close to Chamonix town centre (1 hour's drive from Geneva airport). At the foot of Europe's largest descending glacier, we are in the heart of the Chamonix valley.

Built in 1552, our chalet started life as a traditional French Alpine farm. Recently it has been lovingly renovated and converted into what it is today; a beautiful large chalet, with attention paid to detail, maintaining its original features, whilst offering all the modern luxuries.

Our Chamonix chalet is very close to the major ski lifts in the valley. Our central location offers Chalet Tissières a spacious surrounding, with stunning views of the entire valley. All of Chamonix's main transportation facilities are on our door step.

We can guarantee your stay in the chalet will be an unforgettable one, allowing you to relax and unwind, whilst soaking up the stunning views of Mont-Blanc. At sunset from our hot tub, the mountains and glaciers glow orange, a most spectacular view!
