Auberge Du Bois Prin, Mountain hotel in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France
The Auberge Du Bois Prin is a hotel in the mountains near Chamonix-Mont-Blanc with views of Mont Blanc and surrounding Alpine peaks from its rooms and terraces. It has its own garden and restaurant that sources fresh ingredients from the property.
This place opened during the era when Chamonix became known as the birthplace of Alpine tourism and mountaineering in the 1700s. It has remained a stop for climbers and nature travelers ever since.
The restaurant here serves local Savoyard dishes made with ingredients from nearby mountain meadows and gardens. The seasonal menus reflect how the mountains change throughout the year and what grows at different times.
You can reach this place by bus route 591 or by train to Chamonix station, with connections from Geneva and Lyon airports. Rooms face the mountains, and the terraces give direct access to walking paths into the Alpine landscape.
The hotel maintains a vegetable garden on its grounds that directly supplies the restaurant, creating a direct link between the land and the meals served. Most guests do not realize their food comes from right here on the property.
