Great location but needs work
Pros:

Wonderful location in Annecy but in serious need of an upgrade. The pool and some parts of the hotel looked slightly better but really not meeting the mark of modern classic feel hotels. Balcony was a. Ice touch but was unfurnished which was odd and the in room tea/coffee options werent great either. If it wasnt for the location and parking we would not come back.

Five Star hotel and service. We stayed for our anniversary and the hotel was incredibly generous with their welcome gift. The view from the room was simply gorgeous. I can't wait to come back to this hotel and would highly recommend it for the most romantic getaway.

Pros:

Really enjoyed our stay, The hotel was wonderful, area perfect, facilities and local amenities very good.
My only complaint would be that i paid a lot to stay here for a week, paid for a balcony and got a Juliet windows, which wasn't even big enough for us both to sit at and view the lake. We should have complained, but were out more than in.
