Situated on the shores of Lake Annecy, within a vast private park, the Palace de Menthon offers unparalleled views and rare beauty. Continuing a legacy of hospitality that began a century ago, this haven for visitors seamlessly blends tradition with modern comforts. Located in Menthon Saint-Bernard, just 10 km from Annecy and 40 km from Geneva, the Palace is accessible by both car and boat, thanks to its private port. The stunning views can be enjoyed from the gardens and restaurants, as well as from the guest rooms and indoor swimming pool. Sheltered by the mountains and the lake, the Palace sits high above a gently sloping park that reaches down to the water's edge—an ideal setting for a revitalizing day or weekend getaway.

Jean Sulpice
Creative · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
The Auberge du Père Bise is buzzier than ever under the impetus of Jean Sulpice and his wife, Magali, who have recently masterminded a top-to-toe makeover of the premises! A keen sportsman, the chef serves delicate food that is healthy and light in a single set menu. Wild herbs, flowers and plants add contrast and colour to his creative, incisive dishes, which star a delicious roll call of fish from the lake. Served in beautiful ceramic tableware, this poetic experience unfolds in an elegant contemporary dining space overlooking the terrace and the crystal-clear waters of Lake Annecy in a sett

Le Confidentiel

€€
This restaurant – one of many (including some real juggernauts!) surrounding the lake – proves that good things come in small packages. In a compact dining area, you can enjoy dish after dish that is absolutely on point with its bold flavours, such as low-temperature egg, celery and pear, or hake, vegetable noodles and ginger-lemongrass broth. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. It really is love at first bite... Now that you're in on the secret, you know what to do!

La Table de Yoann Conte
Creative · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
Breton chef Yoann Conte discovered the meaning of brotherhood and the importance of food on the high seas. He is committed to creating "unpolished" and sincere dishes within the fine dining context. An extreme hiker in his spare time, his lakeside garden benefits from his herbalist know-how. His cooking is in his likeness: physical, down-to-earth, adventurous and with a wry sense of humour. Supported by a highly motivated team, he tirelessly refines two set menus with distinct themes: "Adopted Land" which highlights the Alpine terroir, "Native Brittany" which celebrates his homeland with preci

La Rotonde des Trésoms
regional, french · ★ Michelin
€€€€
The huge conservatory of this Rotonde commands a splendid panoramic view over Annecy Lake, sweeping diners off their feet, even before their first bite! Originally from Arcachon, Eric Prowalski adds flavours from southwest France to recipes which highlight sustainably grown local produce. This skilled craftsman deftly unfolds a repertory in which creativity never hampers the flavour, developing a delicious "dialogue" between his adopted land and his homeland. The understated interior showcases a subtle blend of warm materials such as leather and oak.

L'Auberge de Montmin
Creative · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
Forclaz Pass (1 147m) is not just a paradise for paragliders, but also for fine food lovers, thanks to this restaurant, which has been refurbished and extended without losing its snug Alpine appeal. Chef Florian Favario adds an increasingly creative spin to cuisine based on the best of local produce (eg lamb and piglets, home-grown vegetables, seasonal fruit). He masterfully combines wildflowers, plants and herbs, such as thyme, sage, oregano, agastache, hyssop, mint flower etc. The resulting feast of extraordinary scents elevates dishes that are already at the apex of culinary technique and k

Le Clos des Sens
french · ★★★ Michelin
€€€€
This spruce establishment in the upper reaches of Annecy is home to Franck Derouet and his associate Thomas Lorival. They fashion a culinary lineup whose veggie and lake-focused slant is clearly founded on a locavore philosophy as everything comes from their own garden or within a 100km radius. Each dish is sprinkled with seasonal fruit, vegetables, flowers and herbs, adding a distinctive poetic and modern art flourish. Their work with fish from the lake involves in-depth reflection about texture and cooking methods, resulting in dishes like raw fera (lake fish) enhanced by a powerful garum, f

A vibrant colour scheme and an unrivalled view of the lake depict this smart, trendy restaurant which serves finely crafted bistronomic fare: foie gras and duck breast; fillet of roast John Dory with seaweed butter; Brittany shortcrust with exotic marmalade.

Maison Benoît Vidal
Creative · ★★ Michelin
€€€€
Benoît Vidal is the Catalan chef behind this restaurant done out in a slick contemporary style in the Annecy area. Having completed stints with Michel Trama and Michel Guérard, he has created a light, poetic brand of cuisine that is rooted in the culinary traditions of Savoie, his adopted home. He brings a sense of precision and his own personal style to bear on the rigorously sourced ingredients, elevating them with sound technical skill and elaborate presentations. The strength of this chef may well lie in his pared-down, apparently simple creations showcasing pike, trout and crayfish with u
