Hôtel du Palais de l'Isle
This was one of the best hotels I have stayed in (and that's a lot!) The staff were friendly, the room clean and comfortable with a lovely bed! Quiet and well set out and the breakfast was perfect.

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!
