Presentation

Sometimes, just a glance at the calm waters of Lake Annecy is enough to feel transported elsewhere. Across the lake, the Rivage Hôtel & Spa invites you to extend this sensation. The contemporary architecture, highlighted by natural materials and clean lines, blends seamlessly with the landscape without ever overshadowing it. Here, you enter a place designed to slow down, breathe, and savor the moment.

In the rooms, every detail seems to have been carefully thought out for your comfort. Mineral, vegetal, or aquatic tones harmonize with the natural light streaming through large bay windows. Whether you choose a superior room or one of the suites with a terrace, the space exudes a peaceful elegance. From the upper floors, the balconies reveal uninterrupted views of the lake, Mount Veyrier, or the rooftops of Annecy.

The high-end bedding invites deep rest, and the white or gray marble bathrooms add a refreshing touch to your morning. The plush bathrobes, NUXE products, and discreetly integrated Nespresso machine are just some of the thoughtful touches that enhance the feeling of being truly welcomed.

At sunrise, breakfast can be enjoyed in the dining room, on the terrace, or in the privacy of your room. The buffet highlights local products: crispy breads, Savoyard cheeses, ripe fruits, and homemade pastries. A gentle way to start the day, with your eyes on the ever-changing reflections of the lake.

At lunch or dinner, LÔNA, the restaurant led by Juan Arbelaez, redefines the codes of Savoyard cuisine. On the plate, lake fish meet alpine herbs, seasonal vegetables are ignited on the brazier, and scallops play with buckwheat and brown butter. The atmosphere remains relaxed, ideal for intimate conversations or joyful meals.

The restaurant's terrace, suspended between sky and water, extends these moments in a vibrant atmosphere. Later, the Bacari bar welcomes you for an aperitif or a nightcap, with a sharing board, a signature cocktail, or a glass of wine from the well-stocked cellar.

The NUXE Spa unfolds its 1,000 m² as a promise of reconnection. The journey begins with the indoor pool, continues in the hammam or sauna, and concludes on a deckchair near the salt wall. An herbal tea in the tisane room, a few pages of a novel… and time seems to stand still.

In one of the treatment cabins, you can surrender to the expert hands of the practitioners. Warm oil massages, facials, duo rituals... every gesture soothes, every texture envelops. The most active guests can extend this vitality in the light-filled fitness room or try a yoga session.

At any time of the year, the common areas remain welcoming. The large lounge invites reading or quiet work, and the modular meeting rooms provide an elegant setting for seminars or private events. For business travelers, free Wi-Fi and suitable equipment ensure a smooth and productive stay.

The Rivage Hôtel & Spa caters to all desires: romantic getaways, relaxing weekends with friends, professional events, or simple rejuvenating breaks. Here, you'll find the serenity of a spa, the refinement of a gourmet dinner, and the delight of a morning stroll by the lake.

The staff, present without ever being intrusive, supports every step of your stay with kindness. The establishment also offers two private parking lots, luggage storage, an airport shuttle, and 24/7 multilingual reception to ensure a smooth arrival.

From the hotel, Annecy's old town is just a few minutes away on foot or by bike. You can wander through the cobbled streets, cross the Lovers' Bridge, admire the canals, or visit the castle overlooking the city. In every season, the city reveals timeless charm.

For a cultural experience, step into the Palais de l’Isle or the Bonlieu Center. These venues host exhibitions, performances, or concerts throughout the year. Nearby, the art school or the town hall reflects the city's dynamism and heritage elegance.

Food lovers will also find happiness in nearby establishments: lake fish restaurants, wine cellars, local cheese shops, or creative dining spots, Annecy is full of flavors to explore. For inventive cuisine, consider booking a table at La Table de L’Imperial or L’Esquisse.

If you enjoy going off the beaten track, why not try a paddleboarding session at sunrise, a hot air balloon excursion, or a hike to Semnoz for a panoramic view of the surrounding peaks? Each season reveals new colors and sensations.

In winter, nearby resorts such as La Clusaz or Le Grand-Bornand offer ski days accessible in less than an hour. Upon your return, the warmth of the hammam and the comfort of the jacuzzi extend the pleasures of the snow.

In summer, the lake's beaches become havens of coolness. Albigny Beach, just a short walk away, is perfect for a swim or an impromptu picnic. The bike paths along the shore also offer wonderful escapes.

Staying at the Rivage Hôtel & Spa means choosing a haven between nature and culture, relaxation and refinement. It's also about treating yourself to the experience of a lifestyle where every detail matters, but where you quickly lose track of time.
