Unfortunately, we started badly with a mess up on the booking. I had requested (at every stage in several emails over several months) a king sized bed and lake view. We arrived early evening, the hotel was full and we were shown to our room with balcony and partial lake view but standard (about 5') bed. We immediately said that... More

Having stayed in the centre of Annecy on many occasions, we decided this time to try a hotel out of town, next to the beautiful lake. It was only for a 1 night stop over on our way home from Italy. The location was perfect. However thats about the only good thing about the hotel. It certainly does not warrant... More

The hotel is in a stunning location on the edge of the lake. The restaurant is good with a beautiful terrace and great food BUT the room was a disgrace. Our room was quite literally a cupboard. It was on the first floor where rooms were numbered 1 to 7. We were in 702 an obvious recent adition. It was... More

The stereotype of French hospitality has been confirmed in this hotel. The front office staff is unfriendly and unwelcoming. Not all rooms have air-conditioning and are renovated! The restaurant staff was friendlier, but the food is highly overpriced for what it is. The meat and fish were either overcooked or too raw. The hotel has a nice location and is... More

We decided to eat here ,but were staying nearby. Had been into their web site earlier but past experiences of Talloires only included a stop at The Abbey,twenty years ago,and that was marvellous. Le Cottage really is a dream site for summer dining,the terrace is beautiful and views of the Lake of Annecy are magnificent. At 47 Euro, the menu... More

This was the second time we stayed in this hotel. Stayed there about 5 years ago, with moderate satisfaction. Due to late planning, we returned since it was about the only place with a vacancy in that area. The view is still fabulous, but the constant feeling of being ripped-off spoils it all. The standard rooms are worth 2 or... More

Last year we had a wonderful time at Le Cottage Bise in late July This year we went 4 weeks earlier, arriving on 4th of July. As we drove into the driveway Jean Claude Bise was there to meet us and welcome us back. No need to register as we had been there before, so he just brought us up... More

Brilliant Hotel - worth the extra - great staff - so helpful - if you are staying in August, make sure when you book that your room has A/C - not all of them have - we had to change, but the manager quickly sorted this out. The restaurant, the staff, the location, the facilities were faultless - we will... More

The loctaion and building were superb. The restaurant was fantastic, innovative and good cooking but expensive. The rooms however were small and in our view overpriced compared to other hotels stayed in during our tour of France. Although breakfast in the room was available - there was no where we could possibly eat it! Rooms in the eves are always... More

My husband and I chose the Cottage for our first short break without our children and loved this lovely little hotel. We had a room in the main building which was modernly furnished, comfortable and spotless and although not huge, the views over the lake were amazing. Our only issue with the room was the lack of a shower curtain,... More
