Presentation

Between lake and mountains, between memory and modernity, a place welcomes you for a unique stay. Just a few minutes’ walk from the lively streets of Annecy, a building steeped in history invites you to slow down. A former 19th-century hospice, subtly restored and complemented by a contemporary wing, the Hôtel Le Pélican outlines a new way of staying. Here, every stone, every space tells a story. And yours begins as soon as you step inside.

In the rooms, elegance is expressed without ostentation. Natural materials, light wood, marble touches, and sleek lines blend with the gentle light from the lake or mountains. Some rooms offer generous terraces, others a peaceful view of the Basilica of the Visitation. All provide a cocoon conducive to rest, reading, and rediscovering silence. The open-space concept, without hidden storage, is surprising at first glance but charms with the fluidity it creates.

The suites, meanwhile, offer more distinctive atmospheres. A suite under the eaves combines authenticity with spacious volumes, while another, immersive, projects 360-degree light displays for a moment out of time. On the terrace of yet another, a jacuzzi overlooks the lake. These choices reflect a desire to offer a personalized experience, balancing discreet refuge and sensory pleasure.

In the morning, light floods the breakfast room. Warm bread, seasonal products, gluten-free options: everything contributes to a serene start to the day. You can also choose the privacy of your room to enjoy your coffee, facing the dawn over the peaks or the mirror-like lake.

At the heart of the establishment, an artisanal bakery spreads its aromas into the lobby. It offers more than just bread: fine pastries, snacks to take away or enjoy on site, all served with warm simplicity. At any time, it becomes a welcoming spot.

For lunch or dinner, the restaurant Ô Bon Bec breaks the mold. Here, you choose your plate according to your cravings. Shareable tapas, dry-aged meats, refined cheeses, regional wines... The cuisine is precise yet unpretentious, served in multiple spaces: sofa, high table, terrace, or charred wood bar. The place is alive, and every meal becomes a unique moment.

From spring onwards, the outdoor pool extends the experience. Nestled near a centuries-old cedar tree, it offers moments of freshness or contemplation. Under the shade of parasols or with your feet in the water, time seems to stand still. An integrated bar completes the offering, with cocktails by the pool or fresh juices between swims.

The atmosphere evolves throughout the day. In the evening, the notes of a DJ set or the voices of a live band transform the terrace into a meeting place. Music accompanies the sunset, conversations linger, and memories are made. Whether you're alone, as a couple, with family, or colleagues, the ambiance embraces you.

To maintain or regain your rhythm, a fitness room is available. Bright and well-equipped, it allows you to start the day with a few exercises or take an active break between appointments. The hotel also caters to professionals: five modular meeting rooms enable seminars and workshops in an inspiring setting.

Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the establishment, as are concierge services, a 24/7 reception, and a private parking lot equipped with electric charging stations. These subtle details make daily life easier and leave more room for what truly matters: living in the moment.

Committed to a strong environmental approach, Le Pélican integrates the principles of the Trésums eco-district. It uses deep lake water for thermal regulation, prioritizes renewable energy, and donates a portion of its revenue to associations through the "1% for the Planet" program. A stay here is also a step toward more sustainable tourism.

Annecy is at your feet. In just a few steps, you can reach the old town with its arcaded streets. The Thiou Canal guides your strolls to the market, galleries, or local boutiques. Every turn holds a surprise.

You can also rent a bike nearby and follow the greenway along the lake. It will take you to Talloires or Menthon-Saint-Bernard, with stops for swimming or a picnic. In summer, the beaches are just a 15-minute journey away.

When it comes to gastronomy, there’s no shortage of options. La Table d’Élise offers Savoyard cuisine subtly reimagined. Le Clocher, in an intimate setting, celebrates local produce with precision. For a panoramic experience, Belvédère awaits you on the heights.

Culture enthusiasts can discover the Palais de l’Isle or the Château d’Annecy, overlooking the city. Temporary exhibitions are often held there. For a different kind of evening, Bonlieu Theater or the art-house cinema Les Nemours feature high-quality programming.

If you have a bit more time, don’t hesitate to explore the surroundings: the Col de la Forclaz for its breathtaking views, or the Gorges du Fier for a mineral escape. In winter, family-friendly ski resorts are just an hour’s drive away.

Staying at Le Pélican means choosing much more than just an address. It’s an invitation to a sensory interlude, blending natural elements, architectural heritage, and modernity. A place to live, feel, and remember.
