Le Chalet de l'Atelier

Champery

Portes du Soleil

Canton of Valais

Swiss Alps

Switzerland

The hotel was perfectly situated for the mountains and many offerings in the town Champery, that has both a tranquil village feel with the opportunities to be very active and sociable. The hotel was very well decorated, in keeping with the local area of mountains and local materials. We stayed in room ‘Ours’ which was very comfortable and had everything you needed - we felt relaxed and at home in the hotel with the friendly and welcoming staff

A perfect base for exploring the mountains, in a cosy and well presented chalet style room

Stayed here for one night over Christmas 2016. Some reviews said this hotel wasn't easy to find, but if you know the house number and have a good map, that won't be an issue - it is a 5 minute walk uphill from the station, directly on the main street, Rue du Village, in the same building where Le Nord restaurant is. Indeed there is no clear sign (Christine, who runs the place, later told us this is being worked on), however we opened the right door on first attempt. Check-in was easy, albeit the lady who greeted us certainly wanted to communicate in French. We stayed in the smallest of their 4 rooms, but it was of adequate size for us. Appreciated the wooden interior, design features, the bed and linen are all superb. It was cold outside, but the room was very warm. Breakfast is served from 8:30am and is plentiful - there is no buffet, it is all brought to your table. Christine is a charming and memorable lady, she set the tone for the entire day.

Very cozy and clean hotel

This is a difficult one. At the right time of year, in the middle of the ski season or the height of summer, this could well be a pleasant place to stay but in May, it cost a lot but offered little. It presents itself as a smart hotel with a bar and restaurants but in reality it is just a small ski lodge with a chalet girl who is not on the premises. We were not given any directions and, despite having the full address, could not find “Le Chalet de l’Atelier” (the name on our booking form) on arrival. Even the woman serving in a nearby shop had never heard of it. We did eventually find a sign on a nearby bar or restaurant with a similar name (L’Atelier Gourmand) but everywhere was closed and locked. With hearts sinking, we phoned the “hotel” and were told by the chalet girl that we were in the right place. She met us there about ten minutes later. We were shown to a comfortable room but all other facilities – the bar, the lounge, and two restaurants – were closed and locked, so we only had access to the room and the staircase. The room was attractive but much was superficial. For example, the bedhead could be illuminated but the bedside lights were so enclosed in fancy shades that it was almost impossible to read in bed. The wash basin lit up when water was running but there was no way of filling the bowl with water. The toilet and shower lacked privacy as there is a half-boarded glass screen separating it from the bedroom. The “extra-large super-king size double bed” was two single beds (with separate duvets) pushed together. To be fair, the room also had many plus points: a view of the mountains, free WiFi, TV with various UK domestic channels, hair drier, safety deposit box etc. With no restaurant open in the hotel, we then discovered that many of the others in the village were closed for their annual holiday between the ski and summer seasons. Christine, our (French) hostess, was charming and helpful, and spoke good English. She also provided a lovely breakfast (at extra cost). However, although Champéry is an attractive village in a lovely area, I recommend that you find a proper hotel that is fully open if visiting in May.

VERY DISAPPOINTING IN MAY

Looe, Cornwall, England

Booked a small room and was not disapointed. The design of the room is amazing and the bed is very confortable. I loved the wood and glass that separates the room from the bathroom. We will return there next time we go to Champéry. Good location in the center of the village. We had a fondue in the restaurant and it was excellent as well.
