Fodor's Expert Review La Boutik Hotel

Set in a 150-year-old mansion in the heart of Annecy, this charmer of a hotel features stunning views of the lake, castle, and mountains on one side and a peaceful garden on the other. Between those two vistas, a dozen bright and spacious guestrooms, each with its own original theme (Green Forest, New York, Moody Blue, Oscar Wilde, etc.) are done up with a pleasing whimsy in the utmost taste. The cozy library is a delight on cooler days and the breakfast room is the perfect spot to linger over fresh croissants with delicious homemade jams.
