This hotel is run by  Mr et Mme Briquet and the lovely, interesting and sometimes quite special little touches testify to their care. We were only there for one night but the room was spacious , warm and comfortable, the welcome friendly. Parking opposite the entrance, small fee after 9am. Breakfast was traditional french, fresh crusty baguette and buttery croissant. Excellent coffee. Great find.

Charming family owned hotel

The hotel looks old and tired, however, the welcome was nothing like that, excellent reception, the room we were given on the second floor was large and could have accommodated 2 more ( young adults or children), layout was a bit strange, but clean and tidy. Shame the shower head would not attach to the rail, and I have seen bigger baths, but hey for an overnight stop on the way to Italy it was fine.

Old, tired, shabby chic ?

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It's pretty central in Sallanches, only about 5 blocks to the train station, where the buses take you up to Megeve if you're into skiing as I was. Very cheap price, only 53 euros per night for a room that could fit 2. The staff (with whom I only conversed in French, so I can't speak to their English abilities) were exceptionally kind and helpful. They gave me restaurant recommendations, held my luggage and placed it in the room for me when I got back from skiing, etc. I got the 6 euro breakfast which was fine. Coffee/tea, yogurt, bread/croissants, etc.

Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was that they didn't have my reservation (made through booking.com). Luckily they had free rooms, but that would've been bad had they not. The receptionist was friendly about it and described it as "un petit detail" (a small detail). I contacted Booking.com about it and they said the location never acknowledged the reservation.

I would definitely recommend the hotel--maybe just book with them directly or call and verify they have your reservation on file.

Very friendly staff, clean rooms, cheap price, didn't have my reservation though

I stayed in this hotel for two nights last month as my friend had the misfortune to break her leg skiing in Megeve and was brought to Sallanches hospital to be operated on.  The hotel is in the centre of Sallanches and only 10 minutes walk from the hospital   I stayed in Room 110 (which the owner described as the largest of the basic rooms) on the first floor at the front of the hotel.  It was very big, simply furnished but with French chic and squeaky clean. The shower room seemed brand new, also squeaky clean,  and there was a separate toilet.  There was also wifi, which I hadn't expected.  The stairway was a bit dark and old fashioned - no lift.  Breakfast was served in a large,  airy and pleasant room off Reception and, at 6 euros, was plentiful and served quickly and courteously.  The owners were friendly and helpful.  Given the difficult circumstances, the hotel was a real find!

A surprising find .... for 53 euros a night!

I chose Sallanches as a base for a couple of days’ exploration of the surrounding area. The hotel is an approx. 5 min. walk from the co-terminus bus & train stations, with excellent access using the “Leman Express” train service. 

I booked a double room with private bathroom via Booking.com. There was some confusion as that website’s description makes no mention as to whether breakfast is available. A swiftly-replied to email to the hotel advised that it is, for 6€. 

Check-in is usually from 14.00 but, having advised the proprietor in advance that I’d be arriving earlier, thankfully my room was ready. #224: end of the corridor on 2nd / top floor, overlooking a garden, but also overlooked by adjacent apartments’ balconies. Fabulous views to the towering mountains. For noise disturbance - see below.

The room is pretty basic ... no frills, other than those on the huge windows. Sheets rather than a duvet. I was astonished to find, in the middle of a heatwave, that the bed had also been made up with a blanket! 
Old-style bathroom. Huge sink, badly-cracked. Very good-sized bath, with modern lever mixer tap & hand-held shower head, but annoyingly no wall-mounting for it.
Hairdryer available on request. 
TV - French language channels only. 
WiFi - free, but slow & required repeated re-registration. There is also a payable option available, 5€ / day. 

The room was very uncomfortably hot at night. On the second night (a Friday,) I resorted to trying to sleep with the window open. There was a lot of noise disturbance, particularly from the adjacent restaurant & its kitchen, exacerbated by sound being amplified due to a courtyard effect at the back of the hotel. From midnight onwards, the escalating row between 2 irate Italians made for interesting “entertainment”! Sound insulation between rooms is also very poor. Bring ear plugs! 

Breakfast is taken in a quaint little room behind Reception. Served (no self-service) by the very efficient Monsieur Briquet who delivered a basket of baguette & a croissant, orange juice & choice of hot drinks. Selection of pre-packed preserves etc. I’m The bread & croissant were absolutely fresh & delicious. Very good coffee with hot milk. Excellent value for 6€! 


2 nights B&B

I used Booking.com to stay at this hotel for the night of 12th June 2021.  When I arrived at about 9 pm the hotel was closed.  The front door was locked.  I telephoned the hotel; there was no answer.  I walked around and called out; no answer.  So I had to find another hotel for the night.  Then I found that they had taken payment for my stay.  I tried customer service on Booking.com.  They told me to call the hotel.  The person who answered at the hotel flatly denied that they had been closed.  They said that if the front door was closed I should telephoned.  When I said that I did telephone and there was no answer they said "no, that is not possible".
