Property was very clean. Staff were amazing and Annecy is beautiful. Downside was the tiny lift and our room was very small as its shoe horned into the loft. Just wanted a shower and you have to kneel or sit in the bath to do so. That said breakfast was amazing and we were met with a smile.

Perfect location to be walking about town. Fun, unique hotel with clean comfort. Location, location, location is the number one thing. BUT, if you are a light sleeper it stays quite loud until 2-3AM. The window would need to be closed to eliminate noise. Wonderful stay, no true complaints.

Room 404 is at the top of the hotel, and although fairly spacious, and has several conditions to consider: 1) room access requires going up/down its own flight of stairs, 2) due to sloping roof, it is difficult to stand up in the shower and the head of the bed being under the slope also requires care when getting in or out, 3) the only clothes storage is a cupboard with two shelves – no hanging spaces at all, 4) very dim lighting overall, with the only bathroom light being on one side of the mirror – not conducive to makeup or shaving, 5) space between the end of the bed and the wall is very tight. Breakfast buffet choices were limited, and seating can be an issue at times. On the plus side, electrical outlets were plentiful and well-located, the air conditioning worked well, there was a great view of the old city rooftops and the Palais de l’Isle on the river. Staff were friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for exploring Annecy. Taxis can come to the hotel only until 11 am. I would stay here again, but in a different room.

Great little hotel. Staff were fantastic. Bang in the middle of the old town but the glazing was good so we got to sleep OK. We parked at the town hall multi storey which was busy but not expensive, and only a five minute walk away. Recommended

Beautiful beyond belief.

Had a lovely few days at this hotel, the room was clean & spacious overlooking the pedestrianised old town street. Can’t say what the breakfast was like as we ate out. Unfortunately we arrived when the road was closed to drop our bags from the car, but we were directed to the underground car park just across the road & parked there. The views & general vibe of Annecy is beautiful, the people were very friendly. My only regret was not swimming in the lake. We loved our time here & will return. Thank you Hotel du Palais de L’Isle staff.

This hotels pictures over sell the property. I had a premium double room which turned out to be very small. It was hot with ineffective air con, cramped with minimal storage and no windows in the bathroom or toilet. Very central location but annecy is so small its uneccessary to be that central. The 2nd nights staff offered to move us but the other rooms were barely any different. From what i can tell the developers have put too many rooms in one building. Nice staff but cant reccommemd the hotel.

This hotel is centrally located. Right in the middle of all the restaurants, shopping. It is also conveniently located for the lake and bike hire places. All within easy walking distance. The bus station is about 15minute walk. The room we were gicen (48) was small and it seemed there wasn't enough ventilation and felt a bit stuffy. So I opened the window to allow fresh air. Unfortunately the windowsill was full of pigeon droppings. This was the reason for the low score. This could have easily been cleaned. Allsaid, this is not a bad hotel for a couple of nights. Centrally located and convinient for sightseeing.

Stayed here for a night before my flight to Nice. I loved that free breakfast came with my booking and it was delicious. I wasn’t too happy about the “luggage storage” being in the reception area where breakfast is served but my belongings were fine. My room was clean and I had a stunning view of the canal. Would stay here again!

Hotel located in the middle of the old city which is a tourist spot and gets very busy during the day. Check-in was easy. Staff was friendly. Sofa bed was already setup. They had a impressive European style breakfast spread with fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs, cheese, freshly baked baguette, waffle, pancakes. The room was small, corridors were small, elevator was tiny. We got woken up in the middle of the night by an alarm along with our neighbors. It was a pleasant stay nevertheless.
