I must say, my stay at the hotel was quite an experience. The rooms were tiny, but on the plus side, they were clean and had a nice, tidy bathroom. However, there were a few stains here and there. The service was fantastic, the staff was kind and accommodating, making my stay pleasant. Although the dining options were a bit limited, the location was superb, right next to the pedestrian streets with all the restaurants and a reasonable walk from the train station. It was truly a great value for money. The facilities were adequate, nothing extraordinary, but decent enough.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was small but had a nice window overlooking the street of the old town. The cleanliness was a bit of a hit and miss as the bedding was surprisingly clean, but the fridge was quite dirty. The service was friendly and informative, making the stay pleasant. The location couldn't be more convenient, with easy access to Annecy old town and the lake. The dining options were decent, offering a variety of European food. Overall, it was a good stay with some minor drawbacks.

The location is excellent, close to both the old and new city areas. The dining options are good, although there was a minor dampened experience with spirits on one occasion.

The dining experience offered a sufficient variety of options, including hard-boiled eggs, hams/salami, cheese, and more. However, the selection was mainly focused on French cuisine and was a little pricey.

I absolutely loved the location of this hotel; it's nestled right at the end of the old town of Annecy, making it peaceful at night yet still close to all the action. The rooms were a bit drab and in need of renovation, so if you're looking for charm, you might want to explore other options. The service was fantastic and informative, but do remember to ask for a parking voucher to avoid unexpected fees.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was excellent, right on the edge of the historic part of town, making it easy to explore all around Annecy. The rooms were comfortable and clean, but being on the hallway to all other rooms made it quite noisy at times. The service was friendly and helpful, although there was a delay in resolving an issue until the police arrived. The dining experience was average, offering a decent selection but nothing exceptional.
