Chambéry Hotels

Well located for the main alpine valleys, Chambéry balances a scenic setting with a layered history – all of which makes it a rewarding place to visit. Petit Hôtel Confidentiel (10 rue de la Trésorerie) has just six rooms, but its central location and classy modern décor make it one of the most notable options in town. The Château de Candie (Rue du Bois De Candie), set in a 14th-century chateau, is another top-end choice, while there’s more of a business vibe at Mercure Chambéry Centre (183 place de la Gare), which sits opposite the station. It has 81 guest rooms.

Shopping in Chambéry

For visitors to Chambéry in search of a retail fix, there are some interesting shops to seek out. One such example is Esprit d’Ethik (30 rue Saint Réal), which sells all manner of fair trade goods and ethically minded souvenirs. There’s a similar concept behind Ailleurs & Ici (15 Faubourg Montmélian). For more conventional purchases, there’s a Galeries Lafayette department store (19 boulevard de la Colonne) which has a strong selection of clothing and other items from brands such as Givenchy and Dolce & Gabbana, while antiques can be found at Aux Armes de Bonivard (5 rue Bonivard).



Food & Drink in Chambéry

As you’d expect from somewhere that essentially sits at a European crossroads, Chambéry has some enticing restaurants. La Maniguette (99 rue Juiverie) is a stylish place in the historic centre with some inventive dishes and a good set menu, while Restaurant les Halles (15 rue Bonivard) is another excellent choice that caters for families. Elsewhere, the Michelin-starred Côté Marché (60 rue Vieille Monnaie) produces contemporary dishes with a focus on local produce, while the more basic Le Gulliver Restaurant (4 rue Lans) is a much-praised crêperie. The region has some good cheeses, including Bleu de Bresse and Tomme de Savoie.
