Apartment Biolay - Alpes Travel - Central Chamonix (sleeps 6)

Apartment Overview

The modern apartment can comfortably sleep up to 6 guests and is set up with everything you need for a great holiday in the Alps. A wood burning stove and a shared sauna offer you the chance to fully relax after a day on the mountains. Families with kids will love the nearby Planards amusement park and luge.

Apartment Details
The apartment is located over two floors with a private entrance on the ground floor. There is an open plan living/dining/kitchen with TV and DVD player and wood-burning stove. The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, stove, microwave, coffee machine and fridge-freezer. Also on the ground floor there is 1 double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom with bath & WC. On the first floor there are 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. Bedroom 2 is a twin bedroom with 2 single beds and Bedroom 3 has one set of bunk beds, sleeping 2 guests.

Apartment Location
Apartment Biolay is in a great location in Chamonix. It is under a ten minute walk to the town centre but away from the noise in a quiet, residential spot. The apartment is around the corner from the Planards beginner ski slopes and the luge which is open year round and great entertainment for all ages. In the summer the Planards area becomes a children’s amusement park. The Montenvers train station, which takes you up the mountainside to the famous Mer de Glace is also just a 5 minute walk from the apartment. In conclusion, Apartment Biolay is a great spot for small groups and families who would like to be close to the action of Chamonix, but in a quiet spot.
