A 4* hotel en route to Nice

A 4* hotel en route to Nice

We had left Alsace behind and were on our way home to Nice. We'd decided to take a break in Annecy, a lovely French village on the 15 kilometre long Lac d'Annecy. I'd made a reservation at this hotel in Annecy Le Vieux, which was quite a disappointing distance from the charming lakeside village; it was difficult to find but charming when we finally arrived.

David was disappointed that our room was on the 1st floor (2nd floor to Americans) and there was no elevator; reception quickly gave us a larger room on the ground floor for the same price - a huge space with a large table and chairs and sofa, a separate area for sleeping, and a large bathroom, although not decorated as charmingly as the room upstairs.

Reception did recommend a restaurant within walking distance where we could get a meal, even at the unusual hour. We'd arrived at 3:30 PM without lunch.

Breakfast the next morning was wonderful but extremely expensive, coming to almost $50! All in all, not in the best location for sightseeing and much too expensive.
