The absolute and quintessential French village visit. This place had everything as far as views access to the lake and French cuisine. Don’t hesitate to book The only negatives were the shower. I still don’t understand the 1/2 bath and 1/2 shower combo with a small glass to keep water from getting out. Don’t let it detour you. Great stay and great breakfast. Gorgeous area of the world

Truly a great hotel, expensive perhaps, but worth it. Only small criticism was the separate toilet, which was really tiny if you are six foot tall. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

Great location to enjoy the lake and surrounding parks. An easy walk to the old part of town. The room was spacious with a large bathroom and seperate toilet. Nice extras like Evian water replenished daily, welcome cakes, farewell jam and cake. Valais parking was excellent. Lovely experience.
