Chalet Tissières

Chalet Tissières is a self-catered chalet in Chamonix, sleeping 2. It has a hot tub, a sauna and a fireplace. In the last week of December the afternoons are short and everybody comes in cold, which is when a hot tub stops being a luxury and starts being the best thing in the resort.

We have not published a Christmas Snow Score for Chamonix yet — its altitude figures are still being verified, and the resort page says exactly which ones.

Sleeping 2, it suits a couple or one small family. It lists family facilities such as a high chair or family rooms, which is the detail that decides it for anyone travelling with small children. It is self-catered, so you cook — including on the 25th. That suits groups who want to eat on their own schedule.

It is not ski-to-door, so factor in getting to the lifts each morning. Resort supermarkets keep short and unpredictable hours over Christmas and many close entirely on the 25th. Order ahead or shop on arrival. Pets are not allowed. Check the bed layout and what is included (linen, towels, final cleaning) on Booking.com before you book — Christmas week is often sold as a fixed seven nights.

Chalet Tissières is in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, in the Chamonix area. The usual arrival airports for Chamonix are Geneva (GVA), Lyon (LYS). We do not publish transfer times, because they swing widely with traffic and road conditions on a Saturday in Christmas week.

Christmas week 2026 runs 19 Dec – 26 Dec 2026 — the Saturday-to-Saturday changeover most Alpine chalets work to, with Christmas Day falling mid-week.

We have not yet published a Christmas Snow Score for Chamonix. The Chamonix resort page shows how that is worked out and what Christmas in the village is actually like.
