Arolla Vacations from $899

It is a simple hotel, with basic amenities, close to the main railway station, in a noisy location. The room was clean, but very hot. The shared bathroom was ok (since there are only three rooms on each floor, it was always available when we needed it). There is a kitchen on the main floor, but thy keep the fridge locked when staff is not on site (3pm to 7am). All in all an ok place, but very basic.

We booked this hotel for an overnight stay and quick visit to the Lake. Overall the hotel was okay but our first impression was a little discouraging, as it was located a little farther away than anticipated, perhaps that's our mistake. Don't be fooled by the local area and initial look of the hotel. The spa facilities were closed during our stay and the outdoor pool was perfectly fine. The rooms were clean and tidy, but the decoration was a little odd in places, though nothing to be concerned about. When we arrived a nice lady checked us in but was on her own, so we had to wait for a while whilst she single-handedly managed the property. Perfect for a overnight stay but perhaps not for a long stay.

Excellent location. Within short walking distance from train station and bus lines, for those who want to explore Lake Annecy with public transportation. Equally close to Tourist Info Office, Historic Annecy area, and the north end of Lake Annecy, including most touristic sights, excellent restaurants, and boats to explore Lake. Breakfast buffet had go I d options, but the Hotel itself does not deserve 4 stars. Much more modest. We asked for the mini fridge in the room to be fixed 2x. We were told by two separate hotel staff members that muni fridges aren't supposed to get cold. Really? A minor inconvenience.

Great hotel with lovely friendly staff. Very nice location just by the canal. Our room had a terrace which looked right onto it. Very close to old town and not far from the train station. Would definitely stay here again!
