Clean with nice outdoor areas with views to glacier. Great kitchen and friendly staff. Seemed to attract a great cross section of lodgers, which made it interesting and enjoyable

A bit far from town.

Staff are helpful and informative on what to do in town. Good kitchen facilities and very clean. Nice view of the mountains.

It's a super little hostel that is ideal for solo travellers. There's always a conversation going on in the kitchen or patio area with people sharing their adventures. It's so clean and comfortable and just a 15 minute walk to town. Way nicer than other nearby hostels in my opinion!

While it was a Saturday night, our room had 5 women in it. No fan. No AC. No room for this much luggage. Only two outlets in the whole room (for 5 people?). It felt like we were literally stepping and sleeping on top of each other for the size of this room. It was my understanding that they don't put more than 4 in the room, which for these reasons, is entirely justified. The last of 5 females to arrive thankfully had a car because she had to unpack her suitcase, piling her clothes on top of a table and store her bag in the car because there was literally not an ounce of clear floor for it. The night felt really unreasonable and the only reason for not giving a 10/10.

Alpenrose was a wonderful place to meet other travelers! It was fun to share hiking stories and recommendations over a meal or a drink on their patio. The view with Mont Blanc behind you never got old. While it was a 20 minute walk from the center of town, it was a very pleasant walk. There is a (cheaper) grocery store two blocks away which was a lifesaver!

You definitely can't find a better location to stay in Chamonix. Close to the mountains, the city center, and the river.

A little out of town, but very quiet. Beautiful 1 km. walk or bus to South Chamonix, another 1 km to town center.

No breakfast included.

Rooms a little crammed

Lovely family run hostel, very friendly hosts. Clean and tidy rooms, ample bathrooms/showers, clean kitchen, ample outdoor areas. Location is 15 minutes walk from bus station but 30 minutes into town. There is a supermarket and bakery 5 minutes walk away otherwise no restaurants nearby especially if arriving late. Luggage storage 5 or 3 euro/day was very handy. Often have free coffee and baked goods. Laundry- 5 euro/wash then line dry

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Location was beautiful, a bit away from the main area of town, so it was nice and quiet with great views. Sufficient number of toilets and plenty of shower stalls with good water pressure. There were lockers you could use, just need to pay a deposit for the key, which is returned at the end of your stay. Wifi worked well. Beds were OK and came with a top sheet and multiple blankets, towel included too.

The rooms were clean and so were the facilities. It was a short walk to the centre of town, with breathtaking views. It had everything to cook your own meals and a supermarket just across the road. For a hostel setting it was honestly fabulous. We loved our stay here.

If I was being picky the beds weren’t overly comfortable, but everything else was great.

Great hostel in a great location close to the centre of Chamonix. Hostel was spotlessly clean, both the bedrooms and the common areas, never stayed somewhere so clean! Kitchen is well equipped and there’s lots of places to sit but mainly outside, so maybe not so great in winter.

Great staff. Very clean. Sometimes there were croissants or other pastries in the kitchen in the morning which was very nice.

walking distance to bus drop off point and Télécabine de Aiguille du midi & friendly staffs!

Not really an issue, but it is just slightly outside the city centre. More something to take into account.

The owners are so kind and helpful. The bathroom is very clean and big. There is a well equipped kitchen and a nice terras with amazing views to sit and chill. Compared to most other places in Chamonix this is affordable and well worth the price.

Beds were not so confortable but good enough

Nothing special. The only thing is that in our room there was not too many sockets for chargers, but still was manageable.

The hostel is really clean, and location is nice - just 30 min by walk from the center. Plus it provides a guest card which gives really nice bonuses for tourists for the public transport! Absolutely good choice for this money. The area around is beautiful and quiet, but still there is a shop, some bars and a station quite close.

The owners were super nice and made sure my stay was perfect. They explained the bus routes and made sure I had enough blankets and pillows to be comfortable. The only downside is it's a 20-minute walk from town. There was a grocery store about 5 minutes away that was convenient, but other than that you have to go to town for everything. It didn't feel like a traditional hostel dorm layout, but was still comfortable and secure so I would definitely stay again.
