On the way back to CH, after a "Culinary trip" to France, we thought since we were near Nantua "Quenelles de Brochet, Sauce Nantua", would be a light enough lunch after "gorging" at the various Temples of food (Troisgros, Lameloise, Levernois, etc.). We chose this place as it had a view over the lake from the second floor restaurant...and were... More

Booked for a one night stay en route to Chamonix and it was a real let down. Reception and restaurant are very modern and clean, but the rooms, although clean are one up from a prison cell in my opinion. There is a very small double bed. A TV and one chair and that's about it. If a double room... More

Our room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast sufficient and exactly what you would expect for the price paid. This was a nice peaceful and quiet spot for us to break our trip on the way to Italy. The restaurant was a surprise in that the food and service was extremely good for what I thought was a hotel off... More

A comfortable stop off close to the motorway but secluded and quiet. The carpark is locked at night which was important for us since we had a lot of stuff in the car. We did not explore the town, but it would have been very easy if we had had time. The hotel is right by the lake, and we... More

This was an overnight stop on the way from West Brittany to North West Italy. The hotel was easy to find coming from the motorway. The room was small, and the fittings consistent with the hotel's 3 star rating. It was very quiet, and we slept very well. The restaurant has a fabulous view of the landing stage (that's the... More

We stayed one night in this hotel on our way to Italy and had two rooms. Both rooms were quite small and old, especially the bathroom needs some renovation! The restaurant was quite expensive and the food was below average, giving a very poor value-for-money score! On the other hand, the hotel is ideally located and offers wonderful views over... More

The hotel is ideally situated midway between Lyon and Geneva and very close to the autoroute A43 that goes towards Italy. The town of Nantua is old and a little rundown but takes advantage of a nice and picturesque lake. The accommodations are clean and practical but nothing special. The staff is friendly and ready to assist. Free parking is... More
