Savoy Hôtel Evian — Hotel in Thonon-les-Bains

-The hotel is old and I get it - it is harder to maintain cleanliness, nevertheless, the smell in the lobby can be treated with room perfume -The rooms were clean in general, but I found bunch of dust behind a bed-side table - where the electrical sockets were hidden (you should know almost all people need a socket near bed - invest in that). -Black mold in the corners of bathroom is whole different subject - please take care of that. -White towels are no longer white... -The front desk receptionist, who welcomed us was a nice pleasant lady. Which was the opposite for the one we had to deal with the next day - he was angry (yes, angry) that we had pets with us (2 tiny dogs). And yes, of course we checked with hotel before even booking to make sure pets are allowed. But he was convinced that our pets will stink up the carpet (I forgot to take a photo of that same carpet, but it looked like a scene from horror movie with hell knows how many stains). Side note - his smile could have given him tip instead of this review... But no, not a single smile in 3 days. Oh, and one more thing - we had to pay for street parking every few hours in order to stay there for 3 days.

2 nights in the Savoy - it's definitely got the right sound to it!!! Euros 133 per night for B&B in a spacious double room (4th floor). Friendly staff, clean and tidy, great breakfast, free WiFi and nearby underground parking (height restriction 1.90m) - which is essential as Evians is a nightmare for parking and limited to 4 hours generally - (discounted price via the Hotel @ Euros12 per day). There is a (quite basic) roof terrace with seating/loungers - great sun trap and views. Italian cuisine restaurant.||||No air conditioning in bedroom but room fan provided. There is a refurbishment program underway (1st floor etc) - but this did not impact on our stay.||||Great location on the lake front - great for the promenade: just down the road from shopping, browsing and eating as well as the Casino (which was a disappointment - "slots city"!).||||All in all - a "dose of charm"! Would return -...
