Chamonix village is a one of a kind alpine town with the impressive Mont Blanc as well as tumbling glaciers. Each of us like to go skiing or from time to time eating out. I invariably catch a plane from South Bend and stay at a Chamonix lodge for the duration of my holiday.

My friends and I previously visited Mercure Hotel Ginza Tokyo but it never lived up to its marketing: Mercure Hotel Ginza Tokyo is within walking distance of Ginza dori and Harumi dori shopping streets and approximately 75 miles from Narita International Airport. This location is also within walking distance of the Kabuki Theater and Tsukiji fish markets, three miles from Ueno Park, and 18 miles from Tokyo Disney Resort. Hotel amenities include L’Echanson (French restaurant and bar). The hotel also offers concierge assistance, currency exchange, babysitting, 24-hour security, and private indoor parking.

However in Chamonix ski resort the self catered chalet is nearly always good. Likewise dining out in my families’ preferred French restaurant, Court House Pizza & Sandwich Shop, eating 15 Minute Chicken and Rice Dinner is a real treat. Chamonix Mont Blanc is a big enough destination to insure that there is plenty for the skier to do. Including a cross country skiing track and a number of restaurants, Chamonix provides a choice of skiing, French alpine charm and tourist attractions which few French ski resorts can beat.
