“convenient, comfortable, helpful and good value for money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The location is convenient to the station, lake and all other attractions. While it was not 5 star accommodation, there was nothing defective or objectionable. The staff were quite helpful with planning our time in Annecy and surrounds. We were not ambushed with any unexpected charges on the credit card, no charges for using the wifi or turning on the water tap, so I would be comfortable going there again.

Room Tip: First or second floor, as there is no lift

“Excellent location for train travellers”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

person found this review helpful

We chose this hotel for it's location-close to the railway station and from the reviews. The staff were extremely friendly, especially Nicolas, they were all happy to give tips and advice. Room was larger than expected, lovely bathroom and must have been recently decorated. Access to the beautiful old city of Annecy was an easy stroll. We hired bikes in this beautiful town and rode around the lake and into some of the nearby towns. A beautiful part of the world.

“Low Budget Hotel in Lovely Town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Directly across the street from the train station, this is the first two star hotel I have ever used. I was traveling solo and was only there for a night so I was looking for convenience, not luxury. It was perfect for my needs and I would recommend highly. I saw later that Rick Steeves had also recommended it. My room was recently repainted, etc. and had an excellent television. There is really no lobby, you walk up to the desk and small breakfast area (I didn't eat the breakfast which is extra). It was very clean and just 2-3 blocks to the old town and canal.

“Great hotel, great location!”

We loved our stay in Annecy and this hotel was perfect, not too pricey, but clean and a few steps from the old town. The staff was just wonderful to us. He had 3 rooms and our whole party was delighted. They have firm beds and clean rooms. It was Tuesday, Market Day and the place was buzzing! I would stay here again and again!
