Lou Lou Apartment is the perfect combination of central accommodation in Chamonix and quiet location. The entrance is on Chamonix's main pedestrian high street but the apartment itself overlooks the river Arve which runs through Chamonix, so is not affected by the passing foot traffic on the high street. There is a small supermarket opposite the building on the high street, while the large supermarket is only 350m away, and there is a wealth of restaurants and bars to try on your doorstep. The nearest bus stop is a short 3 minute walk away on the main road for access throughout the valley for skiing or summer activities. In summer, you'll enjoy watching water rafting pass by from the balcony on the river!

Guest Reviews
RecommendedThe perfect base in Chamonix
Lou Lou apartment couldn't be more perfectly positioned in the centre of Chamonix. Directly on the main pedestrian street, but at the back of the building so not only is it quite and peaceful, the balcony sits right on the river, giving a very welome breeze! (And the most amazing view of Mont Blanc too) A mini-market directly opposite and countless bars and retaurants within walking distance. Super handy for the Plan-Praz/Brevent lifts, the Augille du Midi and the train station. Inside there's everything you could possibly need - all the kitchen appliances you could want and a surprising amount of storage for such a compact appartment. Having visited in the summer we're now looking forward to booking again during winter, I can imagine the apartment would be the perfect cozy place after a day in the snow. Perfect all round!
Stay at Lou Lou apartment Chamonix
The good points are that this property is located in a central place. The view from the balcony is good although the trees could be pruned to make it better. There was building materials and equipment left on the the balcony which did not create the right atmosphere. The mezzanine is difficult to access and you cannot stand up. We could live with that but unfortunately there was dust everywhere. If you ran your finger on a surface it would be covered in dust. I think the flooring was recently replaced which may have been the problem but the dust was everywhere. This spoilt the whole experience for us which was a shame. Some TLC and it could be a good apartment. Finally the staff were friendly and helpful.
RecommendedExcellent little studio
Fantastic little studio right in the heart of town. Location could not be better. Inside it is extremely cosy and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Unfortunately outside the first week in January it becomes a bit expensive for what it is (imo).
RecommendedAmazing accommodation amazing views
The accommodation was absolutely beautiful and the views from balcony were breathtaking. I cant wait to go back to lou lou it was all that I imagined and more . Fantastic location with all you need on your doorstep. I would definitely recommend this accommodation to all my friends and family. Thank you Lou Lou I miss you xx
RecommendedNice apartment right in the centre
Location is probably the main selling point of this one, it's absolutely central to everything in Chamonix. Despite the location the apartment is very peaceful, there is no street noise and just a very low level background noise from the river which runs directly past the balcony.
The kitchen is nicely set up for cooking your own meals, plenty of decent sized pans, sharp knives etc which can often be lacking in self-catered accomodation. Nearest supermarket is approx 50m from the front door and this opens earlier than the bigger ones too.
The lounge area is very homely and comfortable. Getting up to the bedroom was no problem for me and there was just enough headroom for it not to be annoying. ChamonixAllYear were always very quick to respond to my questions and everyone I spoke to or met was friendly and helpful. I'd certainly consider staying in Lou Lou again and have no hesitation recommending ChamonixAllYear.
RecommendedPerfect location and cosy
With my partner not being a skier, we needed something that would suit us both. For me, the apartment had a ski locker, was less than a 1 min walk to Chamonix Centre bus stop, giving access up/down the valley, and was on the doorstep to bars and restaurants. For my partner, the apartment was cosy, gave access to Chamonix town centre, and was a walk from the key tourist attractions in the area. TV and internet were good (could watch BBC Scotland!) and decent cooking facilities. Would definitely stay again. As noted by others, despite bring in town centre the apartment is very quiet and peaceful.
RecommendedOne of the best views ever
Thank you so much to all the staff at Chamonix All Year for making my first stay in Chamonix one to always remember, Lou Lou apartment had everything I needed and the view was breathtaking. Perfect one bedroom apartment right in the heart of the town so close to everything but far enough away to have a very peaceful stay, love the good use of space in this apartment which offers to sleep 4 people if needed. UK TV with Netflicks for a cosy night, made it feel like a home from home. I will be back and will be booking Lou Lou again for sure.
RecommendedAn excellent week in a very cosy apartment!
We had a very enjoyable week at Lou Lou. Situated on the ground floor, right in the heart of Chamonix centre, yet very quiet with no noise from outside when the windows were closed. Excellent location for the many shops and restaurants and just a short walk to bus stops for ski lifts etc. The pretty river runs by the outside seating area at the back of the apartment which, although somewhat overlooked from the other side of the river, was not a problem for us. The accommodation itself was very authentic and comfortable, with plenty of space for two people, although you could sleep 4 people using the sofas in the lounge. The layout worked well, with plenty of storage space (including a separate lockable cupboard in the hallway for ski equipment etc). The mezzanine bedroom, although height restrictive (you can sit up, but not quite stand!), worked well with plenty of half height wardrobe space and sockets. A very good use of space. The kitchen was well equipped with appliances and utensils, although a microwave would have been useful and a few more wine glasses!. A warm alpine feel was created with lots of wood, fur throws and cushions. In all we had a really lovely week, and would happily return there. Chamonix All Year staff were extremely helpful and friendly.
RecommendedBeautiful Apartment
We had a good stay in this lovely apartment. It's very well equipped and designed. The only thing we can complain about is the mattress upstairs. It was way to firm. After two nights, we rolled out the sofa bed and slept on it. Not too comfortable but way better than the mattress upstairs.
Recommendedperfect setting
right in the middle of town but super quiet too. very close to bus stops for getting to pistes . i'd go again
RecommendedShort break
Overall Lou Lou apartment was very good, don't be put off by the mezzanine as really no problem.
The balcony was great & the views of Mont Blanc fantastic. We loved the location, very central for bars, restaurants & shops but still quiet when in apartment. Close to chair lifts too. Would say, entrance & hall area to apartment could do with some upgrading as could put some people off. There seemed to be a musty smell in apartment, we were very lucky as it was hot so, we opened up patio doors & smell soon disappeared.
We used CVT transfers from Geneva which were very good.
Would have no hesitation using Chamonix All Year & CVT for our next trip to Chamonix.
RecommendedAmazing location
We stayed in the Lou Lou apartment in Chamonix for two weeks. The town is amazing, and if you're going to Chamonix, you cannot find a better location, especially for the money. The large balcony is right on the river, making for very pleasant morning coffee or afternoon wine watching the river, saying hello to the rafters cruising down the river, and gazing at Mont Blanc and surrounding sights, from waterfall to glacier. Breathtaking! And, best of all, the apartment is completely quiet except for the sound of the river and yet exits right into the heart of Chamonix. The apartment is small but much larger than a hotel room. The couch is super comfy, making for great naps and a good sleep for our six-foot son. The apartment is well stocked, clean, and pleasant. It has definite charm! The folks at Chamonix All Year were fantastic throughout our visit. Great company!
RecommendedConvenient Location
Apartment Lou Lou is well located for the bars and restaurants in Chamonix Centre and the bus stop. The balcony looking out on the river is great.
I have stayed with Chamonix All Year before and their service is excellent. We arrived a few hours before the apartment was ready and were able to leave our luggage at their shop until it was ready. Really nice friendly service.
RecommendedGreat accommodation, super location and all at an awesome price!
I wouldn't think twice about booking this apartment again. In fact we are all ready talking about booking for next year! There isn't anything I can fault in the service or the property. 10/10 :)
RecommendedRiverside relaxation!
Great little apartment. Loved the location right on the river, with balcony where we could relax and watch the torrents with a blanket and a cup of tea on stormy days. Great central location, but feels 'away from it all'. Only downside was lots of bumped heads on extremely low mezzanine ceiling... Not something I am used to being just over 5 ft! Would definitely return though ( but may bring my ski helmet despite coming in the summer and wear it to bed!)
Appartement sympa, calme et bien situé au centre de Chamonix. Merci pour cet appartement très sympa et très accueillant. Merci de m'avoir prêté une cafetière et de m'avoir offert votre service bagagerie pour la journée du retour.
Bruno Lachot, France - August 2017 (AirBnB review)
Perfect place for a weekend getaway, cosy, comfortable and an unbeatable location to enjoy all the apres in Cham or simply relax on the balcony looking up at Mont Blanc. 10min walk to ski bus.
Nicola, UK - March 2016 (Booking.com review)
This was a lovely Apartment! Probably the best location in town, able to walk straight out the apartment and into the main street. The hosts were very helpful and had set out lots of brochures for our arrival. Will definitely be returning here again! Loved the location, the design of the apartment and the veranda overlooking the river.
Hugh Sturrock, UK - July 2015 (This review was originally posted on AirBnB)
Great stay as always... will be back.
James Stevenson, UK – March 2015 (This review was originally posted on AirBnB)
Once again, LOVED Apartment Lou Lou: cozy and fully equipped...perfect place to stay after a day on the slopes! thanks again
Terry & Stefanie, Australia – January 2015
Superb location No street noise.
Jerrold Gale, USA – August 2014
A little gem of an apartment in central Chamonix. Excellent location, thoughtfully equipped with all home comforts and little added extras making it a home away from home for the holidays.
Sharon O’Donnell, UK – February 2014
I’d like to thank Chamonix All Year for making our first visit to Chamonix so perfect! The apartment was brilliant, the staff so helpful and I think that Chamonix is the most beautiful place on earth!
Terry Toaldo, Australia – January 2014
We enjoy a great time in Chamonix and the apartment was comfortable and charming, nice decoration.
Maria Prieto, Spain - August 2013
For 2 people apartment Lou Lou was perfect and I would love to stay there again.
Charlotte Widin - Sweden. April 2013
Apartment Lou Lou was in an excellent location and had a lovely large terrace overlooking the river .. although too cold to sit out when we were there. The apartment was well furnished and a good size overall, but the steps up to the mezzanine would not suit the elderly or those with small children.
