Presentation

Through the seasons, Annecy captivates with the light dancing on its lake, the murmur of its canals, and the charm of its cobblestone streets. Right across from the Vassé canal, just steps from the old town center, a building with an Art Deco silhouette discreetly stands as a promise of comfort and respite. Stepping through the doors of the Splendid Hotel Lac d’Annecy is choosing a place where refinement meets serenity.

From the moment you enter, the atmosphere soothes. The curved lines, the interplay of textures, and the deep tones of the furniture create a warm cocoon. Here, every detail is designed to welcome with elegance: from floral wallpaper to brass lighting fixtures, everything tells a story, blending vintage inspiration with contemporary spirit.

The rooms are a natural extension of this hushed ambiance. Some face the lake with its changing reflections, while others open onto the rooftops of the old town. All offer carefully orchestrated decor, blending velvet, dark wood, and graphic touches. Soundproofing, plush bedding, and modern amenities ensure discreet yet demanding comfort.

Each morning, the breakfast ritual becomes a special moment. In the room with large windows overlooking the canal, a generous buffet invites indulgence: golden pastries, crisp breads, fresh fruits, local products... All served in a peaceful ambiance, perfect for the first conversations of the day.

Throughout the day, the bar transforms. In the morning, it offers a studious and calm atmosphere, ideal for working or reading. In the evening, the space softens, the lights dim, and glasses of wine accompany tales of the day's adventures. From the terrace, it’s delightful to watch passersby, overlooking the Pâquier lawns.

For those who enjoy maintaining an active routine, a fitness room open around the clock allows for workouts, even during short stays. And to unwind after a hike or a day of work, the sauna offers a calm, suspended moment, sheltered from the hustle and bustle.

Business travelers will also feel at home. The meeting spaces adapt to confidential discussions or small group work sessions. Discreet yet attentive service ensures the specific needs of this demanding clientele are met.

The Suite du Lac, perched on the top floor, reveals a spectacular view. Its private terrace embraces the mountains and the lake in a 180° panorama. With its subtly decorated 45 m², high-end amenities, and bathroom with both tub and shower, it invites a romantic getaway or a comfortable family stay.

Every service, every detail seems designed to promote a gentler pace. From free Wi-Fi to a Nespresso machine in the room, and complimentary overnight parking, nothing is left to chance. The staff, discreet yet considerate, cultivates the art of sincere, unpretentious hospitality.

All around, the town pulses to its own rhythm. Just outside the hotel, the bustling streets come alive. Shops sit alongside ice cream parlors, artisans cross paths with strollers. A few steps away, the Palais de l’Isle, the Pont des Amours, or the lake’s shores remind visitors that history and nature coexist beautifully here.

The Splendid Hotel Lac d’Annecy imposes nothing; it suggests. It leaves room for each person’s imagination. It caters to those who come to wander, to those seeking encounters, discoveries, or deep rest. It serves as a comfortable and elegant anchor point to explore a city with countless facets.

And when evening falls, the light softens, shutters open slightly onto orange-hued rooftops, and the canal’s calm invites contemplation. Annecy takes on another hue, more intimate, more confidential. It’s time to surrender to silence, to savor this rare form of contentment: that provided by a well-chosen place.

During your stay, you’ll have countless opportunities to discover Annecy in new ways. A walk around the lake reveals its many faces: secluded beaches, romantic piers, wooded paths, or stunning panoramas. On foot or by bike, every shore offers a fresh perspective.

The historic center alone is worth an extended visit. Between the arcades, markets, lively small squares, and centuries-old churches, the charm naturally works its magic. The museums – such as the Annecy Castle Museum or the Palais de l’Isle – invite a dive into the local heritage.

For gastronomy enthusiasts, a few nearby restaurants stand out. You can dine at Vincent Favre Félix for refined cuisine with local products, indulge in a gourmet break at Les Chineurs de la Cuisine, or discover unexpected pairings at La Table de Karine.

The more curious might venture to the heights of Semnoz or the Aravis for a mountain escape. In winter, snowy slopes are less than an hour away. In summer, abundant hiking trails offer breathtaking views as a reward.

Whatever your desires, the Splendid Hotel Lac d’Annecy stands as an ideal starting point. Neither too imposing nor too discreet, it gives everyone the freedom to craft their own stay. With elegance, with gentleness, and that hint of soul that makes all the difference.

And as night falls, the light becomes soft, shutters part slightly over orange rooftops, and the calm of the canal invites contemplation. Annecy takes on a different hue, more intimate, more confidential. It’s time to surrender to silence, to savor this rare form of contentment: that provided by a well-chosen place.
