Premiere Classe Annecy Cran-Gevrier

Reception staff were great, and we’d stay again. The rooms were bright, comfortable, and clean. The shower was disappointing, though. It was so small the curtain kept sticking to me, and the pipework was positioned away from the shower head, making it hard to wash. The TV was mounted very high, with no way to adjust it so we could see it properly.

At over 100 euros a night, this place is far too expensive for what it offers. You need a bus or a car to get anywhere, and the common areas and hallways weren’t clean. Cigarette smoke smelled throughout the building. The room was tiny, barely big enough to move around or open a suitcase. There was no way to store luggage if you arrived early, and they made me wait outside until 2pm, without even offering an early check-in. My room had only five sheets of toilet paper, which I used up right away. I had to use a towel instead. There’s no one at reception after 10pm. Even though it’s been renovated, there’s still a lot of work to do. I would not recommend staying here.

Good breakfast, friendly staff, and restaurants close by. It’s a great place for a stopover on the way to a ski resort. The only downside was a slight smell of smoke in our room.

The room was basic but very clean and comfortable. It takes a little over 20 minutes to walk to the city center, though the bus connections are good. I’d recommend it.
