Mercure Annemasse Porte de Genève  

On the edge of Gaillard, minutes from Annemasse and just a short drive to Geneva — about 20 minutes to the airport and Lake Geneva. Tucked between lakes and mountains, it’s a smart stopover en route to ski resorts and roughly 40 minutes from Annecy and an hour from Chamonix, Thonon and Evian.

Renovated in a clean Scandinavian style, the hotel offers 79 modern rooms (2018 refresh) with pillowtop beds, minibars and flat-screen TVs. Expect simple, contemporary décor, a sun terrace and easy access to outdoor-mountain vibes — ideal for a recharging night before hitting the slopes or the lake.

Seasonal outdoor swimming pool and sun terrace, gym and sauna, plus on-site leisure like table tennis and a bowling club. Family-friendly playrooms and water facilities add fun for kids, while free outdoor parking makes arrivals painless. Wake up to crisp mountain air and step straight outside for fresh views.

Four meeting rooms, a business center and event space make it easy to run seminars or small conferences. Complimentary Wi‑Fi and free self-parking keep things efficient for work-and-play stays.

La Yourte brasserie serves regional specialties with a terrace and pool view, backed by a lively bar for local wines and cocktails. Buffet breakfasts are offered for a fee and room service is available for quieter mornings.
