Hotel Le Cottage Bise

It was fabulous. Staff too wonderful and we will definitely go back next year. Thank you to you all for a wonderful time spent in talloire

It's the best location on the whole lake, simply beautiful, and above all, quiet and not crowded. The view from the rooms/dining area is beautiful and peaceful. Rooms and beds are very comfortable. The staff - specifically the two women who work at the hotel front desk reception - are very pleasant, professional, and proactive. Breakfast had a nice selection and everything was delicious. We also enjoyed having "apéro" before dinner overlooking the lake. Every day we walked 2 steps and jumped into the lake. You can also rent bikes/pedalos/kayaks/sups from right in front of the hotel which was great.

These points are minor but mentioning them anyway. Breakfast is served until 10am - a couple of times we arrived 950am and sat down outside to enjoy a peaceful morning breakfast over the lake. However, at 10:02am the staff start clearing up/setting the tables for lunch and start making a lot of noise dragging and dropping the chairs all around you and it's a bit unpleasant. I understand they need to start preparing things but they could be a bit more considerate of the guests and the noise they are making because breakfast is not included and is expensive and we expect a more pleasant experience. On weekends, the hotel is popular for private events - specifically weddings. While we quite enjoyed watching the events (which happen on the lawn to the right of the outdoor dining area), on Saturday night there was music playing until quite late and we could hear the thumping bass from our room which wasn't ideal. The pool is nice but the lake view is blocked by a large hedge.

Das Hotel ist wunderschön, unser Zimmer war sehr französisch, stilvoll, elegant, nicht top modern. Die Lage ist perfekt, die Anlage sehr gepflegt, die Autos kann man bequem am Hotel parken.

Man konnte uns keinen Tisch zum Mittag geben, obwohl noch sehr viele Tische im Garten unbesetzt waren.

We stayed for 7 nights in a junior suite with a balcony and a view of Lake Annecy. This hotel is in a stunning location on the waterfront in the beautiful village of Tailloires. There is a local bus which runs every 30 minutes that goes to Annecy town itself. We also used this to visit Menthon and Veyrier du lac. All the staff are delightful, Victoria especially helped us to book a boat tour of the lake, and was a friendly face behind reception. A good choice for breakfast, a stunning pool area which was not busy when we were there and they also have electric bikes that you can hire. The cleaning staff were lovely and made our room look first class every day. Would not hesitate to recommend. A little area of paradise in France.

Beautiful location and friendly staff
