Sure Hotel by Best Western Annecy

Five minutes from the centre of Annecy and its famous lake, the Sure Hotel by Best Western Annecy, Annecy, France, is an easy, well-placed base close to the motorway and the station with free parking, its rooms fitted with a television, air conditioning, and a hairdryer, and a relaxation area with spa cabins and a bath-therapy zone. A game room and two meeting rooms round out the stay, and a restaurant serves a buffet on weekday evenings, with breakfast every morning. The lakeside town is a quick trip from the door. Annecy is the jewel of the French Alps, an old town of pastel houses and flower-lined canals threaded by the river Thiou around the storybook Palais de l'Isle, on the shore of one of the cleanest lakes in Europe, with lakeside cycle paths, the mountains of the Aravis and the Semnoz, and the swimming beaches of the shore close by. On a still morning the turquoise water mirrors the peaks all around.
