There's a Starbucks kiosk in the deli of this hotel and is the one and only in Chamonix. Out of curiosity, I went in for a hot soy mocha, but it was just 10% of an average Starbucks standard. No coffee aroma. No choco. flavour and not either soy milk texture. The only standard is "hot". So I gave it a 10% of a Starbucks standard. That reminded of the first SB shop in Paris, that they intentionally made the coffee very bland as the French often claimed American coffee is "stocking water". I absolutely disagree to this statement since SB combines espresso with the traditional American coffee. That made it a middle of the road. That brought the coffee culture though I'm not a big fan of SB.
The hotel serves complimentary pop corn at the late afternoon, good for people to lounge in the cozy lobby area. Once again, I took all these photos in the second when there's no people around. It was quite busy day and night.
