B&B Hotels - accommodation in Alby-sur-Cheran

Our room was good for four people with the exception that the upper floor was quite hot and the air conditioning was capped so that it would not go below 21 degrees C. So even though they advertised air conditioning the room never went below room temperature on the lower floor while the upper floor remained a few degrees warmer. The staff did provide a fan which helped. The metal stairs going to the upper floor were also in an odd location causing my partner to injure his head on them while attempting to make coffee. It seems the layout of the room could have been better. Also, they only provided two coffee pods for four people for the in room coffee maker which seemed a bit stingy. They do provide a water station outside the rooms with water bottles that can be filled which was a nice perk. The bakery downstairs was incredibly convenient to grab a bite for lunch and breakfast and also for morning coffee and drinks. The prices were good at the bakery.

Brand new hotel with nice wellness area. Very close to the lake and the beach. About 2km walk from town. Some staff great, others less especially in the spa area. Beware of the bathing suit dress code in the spa.

The proximity to the train/bus station and the old town, as well as the lake was super helpful! Everything was within walking distance! We did have some issues with housekeeping the first week. If we didn’t ask for it, the housekeeper wouldn’t clean our room! The second week it was much better. The reception staff were very sweet and helpful and kept apologizing for the inconveniences we suffered. Also, be prepared to carry your suitcases from the 3rd to the 4th floor, the elevator only goes up to the third floor! Overall, we had a great time in Annecy!
