Allobroges Park Hotel
Brilliant location, less than five minutes from the train station and easy walk into the old town. Great storage for a small room. Would just suggest refillable amenities and more towel racks. Afternoon tea/coffee station a nice touch.

Best Western Plus Hotel Carlton
We stayed in Annecy for one day on the way from Geneva to Courchevel. The hotel is very conveniently located in front of the train station and a short walk from Old Town Annecy. The staff is kind and helpful. The rooms are clean and well maintained. Highly recommended!
