Hôtel de la Couronne

Stayed here during a TMB hike. Small quaint hotel right in town, a few minutes walk from the Argentiere train/bus station. Very cozy. Not much of a lobby but can use the breakfast room off the lobby in off hours which is helpful as often the wifi doesn't connect unless you are in the reception area. Room is pretty tiny with barely space to lay down your baggage or move around although the bathroom is huge in comparison - with an old fashioned big and deep tub and windows (being an old hotel not all rooms/bathrooms are the same size or layout). Electric tea kettle with tea bags provided with ceramic mugs which is nice. Bed is two twins put together a bit soft but acceptable. Bedding is quilt/duvet which seems to be the norm in Europe. We have room 31 on 3rd floor with a side mountain view. Simple room with all light colored wooden furniture, plus one wood paneled wall behind the bed, quite charming. Large closet with two extra pillows. Lighting is good. Had dinner at the attached restaurant - quite good, the dessert, a blueberry pie was delicious with a super rich crust. Ok breakfast.

The hotel and rooms were nice, more or less what we expected. The staff, however, were incredibly helpful in every way. I would certainly choose to stay here again if/when I return to Argentiere.

Cheap and cheerful hotel, stayed many times.

Hospitality of owners is great, hotel is clean, beds are good, breakfast is great, but hotel is very outdated and needs major renovation to get to current standards, the garden is part of restaurant and is not ‘free’ part of the hotel to enjoy on your own, it feels like being part of the business.

Absolutely amazing place, will move to the area if i could. Hotel perfect with stunning views, lovely staff - superb!
