Jeanluc
October 4, 2022 at 3:08 amvery good but food too expensive
+THE VIEW, THE room
-breakfast too expensive there was nothing exceptional
Claude
October 24, 2022 at 11:41 amA sleeping beauty
+exceptional view of Mont Blanc;
ample parking;
spacious and well maintained room;
very complete breakfast.
-WIFI signal (site not secured by password) almost non-existent in the room, which is now prohibitive for a hotel of this category;
Fairly formal reception, not particularly friendly;
Restaurant service lacking in dynamism: fish arrived lukewarm after a long stay on a sideboard; breakfast buffet (very good incidentally) restocked with delay giving rise to this surprising comment from the waiter: well people are hungry this morning…
The staff shows good will but the management is failing.
The terrace which offers a magnificent view could be better exploited, for example by placing cushions on the furniture.
Sophie
October 29, 2022 at 3:40 pmdisappointing considering the asking price.
+Great view and nicely decorated room.
-The hotel's website announces that... "silence is a luxury": the busy road under the hotel facing the terrace, unfortunately prevented us from tasting this luxury... not putting it forward in the site would have been more honest.
A hotel putting forward its claims should be able to have a more smiling and friendly staff. The tone of some surprised us! Good reception from the reception on the other hand.
David
October 31, 2022 at 2:49 pmThe price of sight!
+The view from the terrace is magnificent!
-The real sense of service is not there (it must come from the heart or the guts and not from the head!) and a blurry communication! The breakfast at 29 euros is absolutely not worth this price… (Very correct of course but 29 euros, you have to be above the lot!)
Sometimes, simplicity can be synonymous with luxury… in the Walloon dialect we say (Dji vou, dji n'pou)… Which means: I would like to but I am not capable of it or I cannot!… The proximity of Switzerland raises the prices for a generally correct polite but soulless service..., it is not a question of putting "Madame et monsieur" in each sentence to be in the right place. The sense of service is something else… This is only my opinion of course…

October 31, 2022 at 8:13 pmExperience not to be repeated.
+Nothing
-Room with a 30 cm wide murder window and on the parking lot. Absence of light and sight.
Total lack of information and transparency. (wish for a bathtub)
No bulb for one of the bedside lamps.
Marc
November 1, 2022 at 3:24 pmClaim
+– bye on the lake
- interior decoration
-– absence of swimming pool and SPA announced on the hotel's website (criteria which had determined our choice)++
– on the 2 reserved rooms:
Outdoor lighting spot overlooking the bedroom window!
2nd bedroom: bedroom window is a skylight opening only halfway, blocked by the wall
– WC in the bathroom, not separated !!!
– terrace: no cushions therefore uncomfortable
– price of breakfasts (30€): very excessive % of your choice: minimalist cheese platter, absence of salmon for example, complaint for restocking…
– parking: no garbage room from where garbage cans in the parking lot near the entrance (sight and smell)
– staff: inexperienced and visibly lack of supervision
Conclusion: VERY disappointed!!! Not worthy of a 4 star
Lea
November 2, 2022 at 2:24 amAwesome!
+Very nice room
Good bedding
Nespresso coffee machine in the room + tea. In the top !
Nice terrace outside with a nice view.
Very good restaurant
-Breakfast a bit pricey
Sophie
November 10, 2022 at 11:53 pmPrices not in line with the reality of the proposal
+The comfort the view
-The attitude of the staff its lack of enthusiasm to help us…
An overpriced breakfast that absolutely does not keep its promises
Damage
Véronique
November 22, 2022 at 8:46 pmDisappointing for a hotel of this category. We pay for the situation and the view.
+The proximity to Switzerland, Les Rousses and hiking departures.
The view of Lake Geneva from the terrace and the panoramic dining room.
The well-equipped bathroom (bathtub, bathrobes).
-Junior suite bedroom is very cramped, barely enough room to move around the bed.
Same thing with the living room once the sofa was unfolded for my son.
This suite is small for 3 people.
No closets for clothes, forced to keep full suitcases on the floor.
Lamp switch on each side of the bed inaccessible. very short and untied cord as if the lamps had just been purchased. Forced to turn the bedside table stuck between and bed and the wall to access the switch
Swinging doors to access the bathroom from the bedroom, with a day between the 2 doors which is awkward for privacy because the toilets are inside.
It would have been better to make a smaller bathroom to give space in the bedroom and to make a separate access to the bathroom on the entrance side.
The room was a furnace when we arrived, the curtains had not been drawn, and this, in the middle of a heat wave.
It would also be preferable to provide a welcome gift of a bottle of water rather than chocolates. I agree here with another person's comment that I had read before booking.
The spa areas etc… not being accessible because of the covid, the price should have been lower.
Finally, the reception staff were quite haughty, which even in a 4 star hotel or palace should not be the case, regardless of the client.
Finally, it took after 15 minutes to ask for the hot breakfast drinks, when the person in charge preferred to concentrate on clearing the tables. In this case, it is better to install thermoses of hot drinks at the buffet. There is no point in forcing the customer to order drinks from the staff if the service is not provided correctly and quickly.

November 25, 2022 at 2:04 amMake the detour for the table! But not the hotel
+The restaurant, which alone raises the bill
-The room and the national just next door
Sandra
December 10, 2022 at 6:33 pmvery pleasant
+lovely staff attention on arrival in the room too
-just missing small things to order in the room for a quick and simple dinner especially after a day of skiing it would really be a plus thank you in any case
Lucia
December 20, 2022 at 6:38 amExceptional
+Great hotel, very comfortable and clean room. Excellent breakfast (but very expensive). Ideally placed for hiking. Caring staff.
-Nothing.
Rose
December 23, 2022 at 12:03 amVery correct hotel with overpriced catering and overrated quality
+the hotel building and its equipment
-The extortionate price of the average quality breakfast.
The price of a dinner cooked for lunch
Marc
January 2, 2023 at 9:39 amI'll be back.
+Spacious, comfortable and very pleasant room.
Very functional bathroom-shower.
Superb view of Lake Geneva and the mountains.
Restaurant (2 dinners): very refined cuisine, the best.
-I would have liked to have a room with a view of Lake Geneva and the mountains.
Patricia
January 12, 2023 at 9:51 pmvery nice location but service not up to a 4 star…..at 250€ per night!
+THE LOCATION WITH AN EXCEPTIONAL VIEW – THE SPACIOUS BEDROOM
-Poorly soundproofed room, we could hear footsteps from the room above. Friendly staff but not very knowledgeable about what to do around the hotel. Lack of staff for the maintenance of the rooms, at 16 p.m. returning from the hike room still not cleaned, our morning towels were wet and on the floor……we reported that we had to leave…….the cleaning ladies came 1h30 later!
Jeans
January 13, 2023 at 11:15 ama quality establishment reserved for customers who have the means and who will not take the approach of the quality &
+the site is the strong point and the establishment is pleasant and of high quality. the rooms are neat with a real plus for the bathroom
-big disappointment for the breakfasts: only 2 choices of baguettes, no eggs, cold pancakes,….all charged 29€!! this is not acceptable for a 4 star establishment. the restaurant practices prices reserved for Swiss customers and which apart from the high-sounding title and mixtures of flavors which make the identity of the dishes lose their identity. Positive note is the wine list with decent prices but somewhat spoiled by the service in counter glasses.
Francoise
January 20, 2023 at 6:52 pmGood but
+magnificent setting and view of Lake Geneva
-Lack of friendliness of some staff.
We had booked 2 rooms, the rooms are pleasant and comfortable, unfortunately one of them was placed near the ventilation duct so noisy humming day and night, impossible to enjoy the balcony and open the windows due to this constant noise.
Sanitary measures to be reviewed, especially during breakfast

January 22, 2023 at 7:10 pmPerfect stay nothing to say. Caring staff.
+Especially the little handwritten welcome note on the bed with the bag of homemade candy.
-Nothing, everything was perfect.

January 24, 2023 at 3:24 amgood establishment, pay attention to the room that the hotel will give you via Booking.com!
+brasserie catering at dinner
-room booked through Booking.com not great
Olivier
January 25, 2023 at 5:11 pmTo flee, people not to rub shoulders with
+Nothing
-I had a death in my family and had to cancel 3 days before. The other hotels I canceled were kind enough to refund me, with this hotel that was not the case. A very bad commercial gesture not to be recommended to loyal booking customers
Richdzk
January 26, 2023 at 10:07 amMeets my expectations I recommend.
+Room bedding and equipment in the perfect room, spacious and modern bathroom, typical room decoration while remaining classy. Bad weather (fog) so no view. Quality breakfast, well stocked but a little expensive.
-Staff quickly overwhelmed, I waited 20 minutes for a cappuccino, the renewal of meals and lunch dishes also not fast enough due to the time taken to make hot drinks…
Patrick

February 11, 2023 at 3:40 amNice
+The bed at the top the view and the bar very well
-The light from the projectors on the facade which gives direct onto the bed, the noise in the evening from the technical rooms or the kitchen, and the lack of a swimming pool for a 4* hotel

+The decoration of the hotel has a lot of charm. The view from the terrace is beautiful. The staff are attentive and pleasant.
-We weren't able to enjoy our balcony because of the noise and smells caused by the ventilation of the kitchens, but that's a detail.

+Very nice discovery. Very attentive and attentive staff, everything is done for the customer to relax. Quiet. The setting is magnificent, the establishment decorated with great taste, the cuisine is very refined, both on the bar and gastronomic side. Great breakfast. We can only recommend

Out-of-the-ordinary cuisine and a sublime view of Mont Blanc

Dietrichjm
April 13, 2023 at 2:12 amHotel restaurant where it is good to stay there to recharge your batteries.
+The entire staff is very competent and very friendly, always ready to help.
The breakfast is of high quality.
-It is to be wondered whether the architect slept for two or three nights in the establishment.
In the bedroom, no storage possible.
There was indeed a grandmother's closet to hang clothes on hangers, but no shelves to store small laundry or other effects.
The entrance to the bedroom allows you to install a dresser-style piece of furniture.
Pity!
Marc
May 6, 2023 at 9:46 amMore than disappointing
+Our room was large, good bedding, nice bathroom, superb view of Lake Geneva.
-Reception as anonymous as haughty by staff who really seem to attach more importance to their tranquility than to the well-being of customers.
Cold and pretentious decoration (the indications on the service doors are in English: it looks more distinguished no doubt?)
Same claim for the restaurant where the meals are far from worth their price.
Unable to operate the bathroom heater despite several requests to reception.
For a so-called relay of silence, you can forget the calm: the hotel is in a loop of the access road to Gex and Geneva, the noise early in the morning forces you to close the window.
In short, avoid.
