Hôtel du Palais de l'Isle

  • Price range: $$-$$$
  • Location: Annecy

Fodor's Review:

Steps away from the lake, in the heart of Old Annecy, and directly overlooking one of the most enchanting corners of the town (if not Europe) is this delightful small hotel. Happily, some of the hotel rooms directly look out on the "prow" of the magical stone Palais. Without destroying the building's ancient feel, rooms have a cheery, contemporary look and Philippe Starck furnishings. Rates reflect the size of the room. Though the area is pedestrian-only, you can drive up to unload luggage by buzzing the intercom and requesting that they lower the bollard at the entrance to Rue Perrière. Pros: wonderful views; good value; historic part of Annecy. Cons: cramped quarters in all but largest and most expensive rooms; overpriced breakfast; difficult to find by car.
