“Fine hotel. Good base from which to see the area.”
The welcome and interaction with (very helpful) staff was very good (anglophone, and indulgent of infrequent French-speakers). The hotel itself is in a heritage-protected area, and modernisation is limited. The attraction of Chambery and the local region lies outside your hotel room, so this isn't much of an issue. There was no safe in the room, but a deposit box was available. Our room had a wee bit of an odour, which cleared with opened windows. The bathroom was a bit tired, but - other than a marked towel - clean and serviceable. Breakfast was fine, but nothing to shout about. It's a good base from which to see the area, but not a destination hotel, and I'd very happily recommend it on that basis.
