Annecy

Unsurprisingly, Lake Annecy, known as little Venice, is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Alps; the stunning clear waters of the lake surrounded by majestic mountain scenery and the quaint cobbled streets, intersected by the narrow canals and bridges of historic Annecy. A great place to absorb the french culture, sitting in a waterside cafe or take a gondola to see the town from another perspective.

Palace de Menthon - Luxury 3* 1900's Palace

What an amazing find! Staying at the imposing Palace de Menthon, gives you a feeling of grandeur and elegance. Wake right on the shores of the lake with magnificent views across to the main town of Annecy.

Built in the early 1900's, this palace was originally built as a hotel and has been carefully and luxuriously refurbished recently with hints of the decadent colours of the early 20th Century Last year the hotel added an impressive health and fitness centre overlooking the lake.  All rooms have modern amenities; Plasma TV's, Satellite Channels, Mini Bar and WiFi.

Take a stroll through the beautiful landscaped gardens or a gentle swim in the pool or crystal clear waters of the lake and round off your day watching the sun set over the mountains from the panoramic Le Viu restaurant. An experience to remember.
