Clean room, really nice staff and a breakfast buffet with a lot of delicious things. The only thing that I did not realize when I booked is that they don't have an elevator, and the front desk is on the second floor, which is challenging when you have heavy suitcases.
Really easy to get to from the train station (I arrived late in the evening). Staff immensely helpful and the room was clean, quiet and a good temperature. Close to all the good bits of Annecy. Recommend the breakfast as well.
Convenient walking location to the old town and lake. Parking is a short walk from the Hotel. Just be prepared for carrying your luggage up the stairs, as there is no lift service. It was perfect for a nights stay
Excellent location, few meters from the station and conveniently located to explore the old city and the lake. The room was really spacious and tidy. Lovely staff and a fabulous value for your money. Pls be aware that there is no lift in the property.
We chose not to have breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Bed comfortable. Old building but new bathroom. Good location near train station. Easily walkable to lake.
We are so pleased we decided to stay in this hotel. Check in great, staff friendly and helpful, the room is perfectly clean and in good condition, the breakfast also was lovely. Would highly recommend this hotel. Perfect location for train station and then to stroll around the old town.
Small, clean room with a comfortable bed at a good price in an amazing location close to the train station and a short walk to everything you want to see on your visit to Annecy.
Old fashioned quaint clean and confortable. Well Located. I Recommend !

Excellent location
Small but nicely decorated room. But a very dirty wall to wall carpet. Needs to be changed. Very helpful staff. Nice breakfast. The location was excellent. There is a staircase to the first floor. Then a very special elevator that reminds of a space capsule.

The pros:
The hotel is located super close to the bus stations and the train station. It is also within walking distance to the Old Town and the lake.
The bathroom was renovated and the room was a good size. Stayed on the first floor in a double room; room with a double bed.
The cons:
The area near the hotel at night was a bit seedy. Many homeless people congregated near bus stations.
The hotel staff is not very helpful or friendly. Except for one gentleman, working late at night, named Bunjamin. He was very polite and willing to provide ideas for things to do.
The hotel is a bit old and the cleaning staff could do a better job.
I would recommend for a quick stay without too many expectations.
Room fine , breakfast good , entrance not attractive , staff great , top floor rooms are a fire hazard - they should not be used - great location for visiting old village
The staff is extremely nice, and I was surprised to find a Spanish speaker at the reception. Keep in mind that this is not a 5-star hotel. You get what you pay for. You need to use the stairs to get to the reception on the first floor, but it is cozy, right in the city center and within walking distance of an awesome lake.

Disliked: Amenities
The property was quaint and well situated. Unfortunately our first room had a very foul smell. We asked to be moved and were accommodated quickly. Parking on street for offloading and paid parkade wasn't too far away. Older property and limited amenities but served the purpose; clean and safe.
Short overnight stay in Annecy France.
The hotel is right at the train station.
It’s a charming old building and despite appearances the rooms are modern and extremely clean.
The staff are super friendly and the price is very good for the location.
They have an excellent breakfast or there is a patisserie down-stairs if you just want to grab a snack.
This is the 3rd time I have stayed here and each time it has been very pleasant.
Highly Recommend for the budget traveller.
Very friendly staff, nicely decorated hotel in a good area only 2 minutes from the train/bus station. 5 mins to the old town. They have bag storage available. The bathroom was spotless, they did a really good job there. The room i had was small but as it was just a place to sleep, this was no issue. There was room to hang up clothes and store them. Wifi worked well. If you have a room facing the train station like i did, you may hear some people with loud cars at night time. Highly recommended hotel.
It certainly helped that I LOVED Annecy! Less than 5 minute walk to the old town which is so pretty - flowers, the canal, the restaurants and shops, the lake.
The staff at this simple hotel was welcoming, friendly and helpful. Room was pretty bare bones but exactly what I wanted. No aircon but I was able to stay relatively cool with the window open at night. Woke in the morning to the smell of freshly baked croissant and the cooing of pigeons on a nearby roof line.
I had a car so was able to make an easy trip up to Geneva for a day on and around Lake Geneva.
I would certainly stay at this hotel again.
(parking garage with discount just a block away.)
wifi was totally broken during the whole stay, location is convenient that the hotel is right at the corner of train station. Walking distance to reach lakeside;
