Apartment Refuge Des Bellachat - Alpes Agency - Les Houches - Sleeps 2-4
APARTMENT The Refuge Des Bellachat apartment in Les Houches is a one-bedroom apartment offering good value for money, located in a ski-in/ski-out area near the Prarion gondola. The apartment is just a short walk from city centre Les Houches and close to the bus stop connecting Les Houches to the rest of the Chamonix Valley. The apartment features a flexible layout and can comfortably accommodate up to 4 people. Located in a gated complex, the apartment includes a parking space, access to an indoor pool, and an on-site laundry facility. The pool area is one of the apartment’s best features—a true luxury and an ideal place to relax after an exhilarating day in the mountains, or an excellent option when bad weather limits other activities in the valley.
LOCATION The apartment is located in a medium-sized residence, situated within easy reach of the ski slopes in the village of Les Houches. The Les Houches ski area ranges in elevation from 950m to 1,900m. From the summit, you’ll enjoy a spectacular 360° view of the Mont Blanc massif. And with 55 km of trails winding through the forests, you’ll discover the true joys of skiing. In summer, Les Houches is renowned for mountain biking and its long descents down to the valley floor (950-1900m). The trails here range from gentle intermediate runs to advanced tree runs and steep slopes. One of the locals’ favourite runs is the descent from the top of the Prarion gondola to the villages of St. Gervais and Le Fayet. There are a number of different options, offering long and exhilarating runs all the way down. You’ll also find plenty of hiking trails right at your doorstep.
DETAILS The apartment features an open-concept living/dining/kitchen area that opens onto a sunny balcony. The living room has a sofa bed and a TV, and the kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, oven, and stove. The bedroom has a double bed and plenty of storage space. Outside, there is a parking space, a swimming pool, and a laundry room.
WHAT’S INCLUDED The apartment comes with a housekeeping service. Reservations for the apartment include linens and towels, end-of-stay cleaning, and the local tourist tax. You can check in to the apartment between 4:00 PM and 10:00 PM—we may be able to arrange a later check-in, but this must be requested in advance (there is a €70 surcharge for late check-in).

We were really disappointed with the way this albeit nice apartment is run and fortunately we had a
Regarding the apartment and its amenities:
- It is unacceptable for an apartment to be delivered dirty, some examples: sofa bed full of animal hair, carpet next to the sofa soaked in hair, the sheets although still folded was dirty (stained), the mattress smells of sweat, dust everywhere, dirty windows glass, and in general you can see little care for cleanliness (upon entering the apartment there was a smell of cooking), having already entered the apartment and there being no one there for a dispute my wife took care to clean with the equipment present in order to have some hygiene.
- The carpet was soaked in dust and animal hair, after trying to beat it we decided to leave it outside the dwelling, it should be sanitized.
- the kitchen equipment is outrageous, the pots and pans all ruined we counted at least 6 different types of different glasses (one of which was even broken we threw it away), the dishes have knives that don't cut, we had to rewash all the dishes because they smelled like food (and there were still pieces of food on some).
- the dishwasher was in critical hygienic condition, I think it was never cleaned, when it was first opened a rotten smell was coming out, we washed dishes but pieces of food from likely previous washes were sticking, we purchased the special cleaner and had to do 3 cleaning cycles before we could start to see any good results
- the shower in the bathroom is poorly positioned, this causes the floor to flood making it slippery, several times coming out of the shower we slipped fortunately without consequence, in addition to the fact that having to dry the floor at each shower is not a comfort
- the bidet is absent, it should be reported (this is the first time I rent a facility without one) the closet where the toilet is located is claustrophobic.
- the clothesline (used more for drying towels after the pool) is broken and deformed.
- there is a lack of bins there is only 1 (and bags) to make a separate collection
- the apartment is not comfortable for 4 people is too small
- very little storage space for clothes and personal things, 2 small closets (one used as broom and vacuum cleaner storage) without shelving (and insufficient clothes racks) are not enough for a family of 4 people, we were forced to keep some of the clothing in suitcases.
- lack of any instructions in Italian language (there were all except Italian)
- the instructions for the oven and dishwasher were incorrect
- upon arrival, pillow covers
