Chalet des Alpes

One of our most comfortable and cosy stays. The view is exceptional and the host is a very warm and welcoming person ! The room was clean, had all necessary appliances and had a balcony with the most stunning view of the mountains. The bathroom has a lovely roof window and heated floors. Breakfast was included and varied in selection. I would recommend this place wholeheartedly to everyone. The location also gives you access to nice walking or light hiking trails through the forest nearby

Lovely room (one of four) in a family house a couple of hours drive from Geneva. Rooms very clean and warm and comfortable. We paid extra for one of the rooms with a balcony. Comfortable walking distance into town. Nice continental breakfast. TV and hairdryer in room. Also kettle. however only one tea bag, one sachet of coffee and one sachet of sugar each per day ... no milk, only downside of stay for me, otherwise wonderful break. Photos show different views from the balcony

I had an overnight to mountain bike in Crans-Montana as part of a larger trip. I wished I had planned to stay longer, because Chalet des Alpes was delightful. My room was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. Most of all, the ambience and view were amazing. My balcony offered a sweeping view of the mountains and valley. The village of Lens was a short walk away and was utterly charming. Another reviewer said that a car was almost a necessity to visit this area. I would say that as long as you don't have a ton of stuff to carry, you can get by on public transit - there's a post-bus that comes within a 5-minute walk of the property, which goes between the Crans-Montana funicular station and Lens. The funicular takes you up to Crans from the train station in the valley town of Sierre. Having found such a lovely lodging in a fun mountain biking area, I will definitely be back for a longer stay.
