RockyPop Chamonix - Les Houches

The marquee outside reads "we will RockyPop you," which sets the tone before you've even checked in. This Les Houches hotel, a short run from Chamonix, trades Alpine-lodge stuffiness for bright, comfortable rooms and a casual restaurant with a communal, food-truck feel. The ski shop covers rentals for every discipline, though the clientele skews heavily toward snowboarders who have strong opinions about music.
