Chalet Capricorne provides plenty of space and privacy in a peaceful environment just a short drive from both the Flegere and Grands Montets ski areas. Its spa facilities are a definite plus to help you unwind after a day on the mountain and the covered parking is a necessity for those snowy winter months. The chalet also has a lovely private garden which is a rarity in Chamonix. The outdoor space is perfect for soaking up the summer sun and enjoying breath-taking scenery.
I stayed here with my family for a week over Christmas and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The Chalet was spotless and very tasteful. We made great use of the hot tub outside and with only a short bus ride from Chamonix centre, it was the perfect choice. I highly recommend this chalet!
