    There are couple of observations to be aware of. The hotel is marked as pet friendly, but you will not be allowed to enter restaurant with your pet. For the breakfast our family with a puppy was suggested to be seated in a lobby area which we would not expect of this level facility. There is a parking area which belongs to the hotel - which is lacking capacity and normally is overloaded when the hotel is fully booked. You will be suggested to leave your car keys at the reception, so that personnel could move your car depending on the necessity.

    The place is absolutely gorgeous, beautiful lake view, walking path along the bank, atmospheric building of the old abbey with creaking floors and the smell of the old wood.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Abbaye de Talloires. Staff were very friendly and attentive. We used the spa, ate at the restaurant and rented the electric bikes. So much to do here even without summer weather. Highly recommend

    Leaving this fine place behind.

    This fine hotel has honed its perfection over many years without losing any of its flavor and freshness. This latest stay was no exception to the experiences we have shared here with family and friends. The food for breakfast and in the dining room is inventive and satisfying for the taste as well as the presentation. The staff are professional, friendly and excellent guides through the facilities and the menus. The cellar is replete with delights. We had a Côte du Rhône white which had been exquisitely developed, for a very reasonable price. It you have the opportunity to stay at the Abbaye, this refined establishment will fulfill all your expectations. Looking forward to our next visit. Linda and Jean-Guy

    We liked it so much we will stay the next time we travel by car to our home in Italy - which we do 2 or 3 times a year and hopefully have some time left to enjoy the restaurant and spa too.

    A fantastic location right on the lake. A lovely designed hotel which was authentic - we were upgraded to a fabulous sweet with lots of character and original features which meant loads of room with an amazing view of the lake -

    Very difficult to make changes somewhere so beautiful but a comfortable room with big armchairs and books on bookshelves where one could socialise on wet weather days, (other than a bar), would be welcome.

    I didn’t like it when the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night at nearly 4am. There were no hotel staff present to supervise or inform the residents during the evacuation night when the fire alarm rang. The situation was made even worse after to returning to our rooms and getting back to bed, when the fire alarm rang again and we had to evacuate again. I was told the following day that both of these incidents were false alarms. Our sleep was severely disrupted that night. I had expected that there would be a formal apology to the residents, and that there would have been some monetary gesture of goodwill to make up for the inconvenience and very poor service. Alas nothing so far !

    The setting is very pleasant

    I found the restaurant to be a bit slow and the selection of dishes to be a bit narrow. I would like to see some simpler dishes added to the menu.

    I love the location and the character of the building. The Terrace is exceptional. The view from the room is magnificent.

    Staff were inconsistent in their treatment of guests. Most treated us well, but one or two made us feel a little less welcome.

    The room was comfortable. The hotel has nice views on the lake. Talloires is a quiet corner of a busy lake. Nice place for early evening drinks.

    I forgot how many stairs were involved as we were on 2nd floor and there is no elevator. My fault for not remembering as my guest was elderly. Bar is outside at front of hotel and the pop music is pleasant when there but not so relaxing in the room if your room directly faces the lake . The view was worth the music in the long run . Trade off ! Minor problems .

    Always nice to return to the Abbaye . We’ve been coming for at least 20 years or more . Rooms are beautiful especially with lake views . Restaurant has been improved since I was last here. Private deck area at lake is lovely . Staff was very helpful at desk and restaurant. Breakfast is the best .

    the presence detector got activated in the middle of the night in the ante chamber and the light would come on, while we were sleeping. Obviously a malfunction but we couldn't sleep. We had to kill the power for the whole bedroom and lost most of our sleep. The following day the staff told us that yes, it happened, and charged us everything, to the last penny, and never offered a discount or a gratification for the lost sleep... Disappointing to say the least.

    Amazing view, great food, and one of the best location i have seen in the world. This place has seen a lot for the past several hundred of years, there is a serenity here...

    there is no option to buy any kind of drink after 22:00 (except from your mini bar). our order got forgotten on two occasions by the bar staff. when we arrived our room wasn’t ready and we were told that reception would call us to let us know when it was ready which never happened. I personally didn’t think the air-con in the room we were in was working properly.

    the location is stunning. they have an awesome system down by the lake where you can scan a QR code and order from a menu & it is delivered to your table.
