Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Didn’t stay here, just ate on a Friday night (i think they are closed most other nights), but open for lunch.

The hotel looks very basic from ground floor level.

Good location close to the mostly quiet Perrieres lift (great quiet run down from the top of Les Gets)

the place came very highly recommended , food did not disappoint – lovely proper French food and fantasic value. Would eat here again and would certainly be open to staying here, based on what I have seen.

great place also to have a an après ski drink – very French!

We stayed at the Hotel Chinfrey in Feb 2011 for a weekend's ski break.

The best thing about the hotel was the location. Only 5 minutes walk (probably less if you're not in ski boots!) from the Les Perrieres lift, and close to a ski hire shop. The town centre was about 10 minutes away - slightly uphill so felt quicker on the way back.

The rooms were very small (even by ski hotel standards). It was quite difficult to find anywhere to put our stuff. The bed wasn't that very comfortable. The shower had a curtain which didn't go all the way round, so a lot of water ended up on the floor.

One warning - if you're going out in the evening, make sure you ask for the front door security code. They don't automatically volunteer it, but the hotel closes quite early. We came back at 10.30pm on the first night and it was all locked up! Luckily one of the employees was still outside having a cigarette, so was able to let us in. We asked for the code for the next night.

Overall I'd say this hotel was an okay budget option for a few nights (not many hotels seem to accept short break guests in the peak ski season), but if you wanted to stay for week I think there's lots of better value options available.

We booked thru PLANIGO, looking for a hotel that would put us up for less than a week in the Feb half-term (these are extremely hard to come by so we took this hotel with little choice of anything else). They did state on their e-mail to us to contact the hotel if you are turning up after 19:30. However when you book in July for a Feb holiday the small print can get overlooked. Turned up at 23:10 and the place was completely shut with no lights and no sign of life. There was no phone number to ring, or doorbell to push, or alternative accommodation to stay in. So with two young children, outside in the freezing cold we started to bang on all the windows and doors, gently at first and then loudly. A woman appeared on the first floor - told us they were shut, went back inside and turned her light off. After lots more banging and shouting an English lady guest appeared on the balcony and was kind enough to come and let us in. There being no reception or contact details we found our way to the Salon, found some mattresses in a cupboard and all 8 of us slept in their lounge area. The next day the lady owner offered no apology, and was quite angry at us using the mattresses - no attempt at english was forthcoming so even if I had phoned her to tell her we would be arriving late I would have struggled with relaying this in french.
The rooms were unbelievably dated and the shower did not work. The beds were comfy tho.
The breakfast was simply bread and coffee/hot chocolate - so we made a point of buying our Croissants and pain au Chocolate from the little supermarket nearby and taking them down to breakfast with us.
The evening meals were surprisingly nice tho.
The bar was very french so unless you're fluent don't bother going there.
There are no nearby bars to escape to and only one restaurant.
The Perrieres chairlift was just a short walk so was convenient.
The ski area is good too and has a good variety of easy to difficult slopes.

Overall we had a good holiday but the 155euros per night per double room was way too expensive for the quality of the hotel and if you're used to going more upmarket (like myself) then avoid this place!

We are a polite respectable group of 7 women who spent 5 nights at this hotel. I have never felt the need to write a review before but here goes...
The woman who ran the place and the main waitress were rude and sullen and totally unhelpful which was unusual as we had a very good experience elsewhere in the resort.
Breakfast costs 7 euros extra and was basic which would have been fine if it had been delivered within a reasonable time scale and with a smile. As it was we always had to locate the waitress and ask sometimes several times before we eventually recieved it begrudgingly with lots of eye rolling and tutting. We ate dinner once in the Hotel on our first night and then took our business elswhere!
We were given two bath towels in a room for four and were ignored when we asked for one each. The rooms are shabby 70s decor and are very small - swinging a cat is not an option!!
The hotel in general is clean but has an unpleasant smell and the bar is horribly smokey - the dining room is no smoking but its proximity to the bar means that particualrly in the eveneng the smoke effects this eating area badly.
The hotel is on a busy roundabout and as a result the rooms are very noisy especially when the road is wet.
Plus points - The bar man and the cleaner were friendly, the ski lift is close and there was plenty of hot water at all times.

Stay out of here! This hotel was built in the 60s or 70s and hasn't been renovated since. The furniture is ridiculously old, the bathroom is prehistoric (tiny shower, disgusting shower curtain, flooding every time), and the building smells like humidity permanently.

On top of that, it wasn't cheap (80 euros): European prices for developing world standards.

We only stayed one night but believe me, it was too long.

Just spent 4 nights here on a long weekend ski break. The hotel is traditional and a little old fashioned, but the staff and service are good. The staff are really friendly and helpful. The rooms are a vision of 70's chic - with fantastic orange flower patterned wallpaper, matching candlewick bedspreads and curtains. Rooms are basic, somewhat worn, but very clean and spacious. For our short break, it was affordable and perfectly adequate.

We didn't eat at the hotel and only had breakfast once. It's not really worth paying extra for something really basic and we preferred to pick up a fresh croissant in the village. The bar seems a favourite with locals, which is always a good sign and there's a good atmosphere, (though a lot of smoking). We recommend La Tanniere in the village for good food and La Fruieterie des Perrieres (the village dairy) has a fantastic restaurant only 5 mins from the hotel.

The hotel is about 15 mins walk from the centre of the village and there is a bus. For skiing it's a good location for the Perrieres lift (if there is enough snow).

Unfriendly and in desperate need of a make-over! Le Chinfrey to be honest is scary! It is trapped in a time-warp from the sixties, and has never been updated. It seems popular with locals as they inhabit the bar every evening, but as for tourists - they appear to be a nuisance! Needs to be brought into the 21st century in decor and customer service. Avoid

I have just spend 3 nights at Hotel Le Chinfrey.

I found my twin room to be basic but sufficient, having an En-suite bathroom, Balcony , Telephone and T.V. Towels were provided and the room was cleaned daily.
I found the staff to be very friendly and accomodating, however beware, they cannot speak english.
The hotel was ideally located for the chair lifts/ski hire shop and village.

Overall it was enjoyable to stay in a typically French hotel.

A great hotel for those who want to experience France. The hotel decor is fabulously retro - 70's bright orange floral wallpaper in the bedrooms, balcony in every room, good solid furniture. It is spotlessly clean. Wonderfully quiet inside the rooms compared to some scandi chalets I've stayed in. Be prepared to use your pigeon french - English is not spoken here, but they are very understanding of hand waving and pointing! Breakfast is fresh french bread and jam, but you can order croissant the day before. Everyone is friendly, helpful, accommodating and we had everything we needed. The bar was busy apres-ski with locals and tourists alike. This is a popular place with good reason. Across the road from the ski lift and bus stop and a few minutes from a great ski hire shop. We had a great WAGs weekend and would happily go back.

This place is dark and dingy, albeit clean. We stayed 6 nights and were the only guests. Breakfast was orange juice,coffee, french bread and butter. For €7 each per day! We did not dare eat dinner and were keen to leave straight after breakfast and not return until bedtime. Would not go back if it was free of charge!
