Fabulous apartment in the centre of Annecy Old Town. We loved the view of the river from the sofa-bed bedroom and watching the hustle, bustle and hearing the sounds of the busy town below. It was 30 degree heat but the owner had provided a number of fans to help keep us cool. The beds were comfy and the kitchen very well equipped. A perfect location for us to explore Annecy and the lake for our 3 day stay. We would definitely return and stay here again.

The property was in great location. We’ve stayed at many rentals and this one lacked items that you’d expect to have in a rental property such as paper towels and napkins for kitchen and for the bathroom there were very few face wash cloths, hand towels. The weather was warm and the master bed had warm winter duvet comforter. Had to remove comforter and use the duvet cover as a top sheet. This property is on 3rd level and narrow stairs- steps could be challenging. There is no A/C but enough fans.

Thank you for your review. I’m pleased that you appreciated the excellent location of the apartment. Regarding your comments, the apartment is a 3-star classified holiday rental, equipped according to this classification. Additional towels or kitchen supplies can of course be provided when requested during a stay, and I would have been happy to assist had you mentioned that you needed more. I’m sorry that the duvet felt too warm during your stay. As temperatures can vary considerably, I will consider having a lighter blanket available as an additional option. For the benefit of future guests, the apartment is located on the third floor of a historic 17th-century building, with the original narrow staircase, and there is no elevator. The absence of air conditioning is also clearly indicated in the listing; because of the historic building, air conditioning is unfortunately not possible. Several fans are provided, as you noticed. Thank you again for your feedback, and I wish you all the best for your future travels.

Wonderful apartment and location. The host was very responsive. We stayed with our 21 year old son, and the pull out couch in the living room with a door that closed was such a bonus. We could be in the kitchen and bathroom area, without bothering his sleeping times. The apartment windows opened and a cross breeze was ever present ( plus mobile fans in every room).

All of the positive reviews about this apartment are true. It is spacious and beautiful and well appointed with windows overlooking a quiet part of old town in two directions. It is a memorable romantic setting for a couple. We recommend bringing your own Nespresso pods and using the nearby Lav'confort Express laundromat if you need to do laundry.

Great Experience

Our favorite place we stayed our entire time in Europe. Perfectly quaint and felt like we were really immersed in the area and lifestyle. Bed was very comfortable, the windows were fantastic, and we appreciated the fan. Great location--easy walking distance to everything we wanted to do. Dominique was very helpful with local information and very easy to work with. Very highly recommend!

Nice old place

The location of the home was perfect- right in the middle of the old town pedestrian area. House was well equipped. Only downsides are no Ac, low ceiling height, and on the 4th floor with no elevator.

thank you for your review. I am very happy you enjoyed your stay at Le Rousseau. However regarding the dowsides you are refering to and as I told you the AC is not allowed in this historic building but several high standard silent fans in the apartment can widely compensate the AC absence. The building is dated 17th century so there is no elevator as stated in the apartment description Finally I was sorry to ask you for the payment of the rent once you had already left.but I was expecting an apology from you Thanks once again for your stay with us

Great Apartment, Supreme Location

We had a really nice stay at the Warrens apartment. The flat was extremely clean, large and comfortable. The check in and check out were easy, but the best thing about it is location. The apartment is in the very center of Annecy and one wouldn't be able to place it more centrally than it is. The host was great answering all our questions, giving us tips about places to go and see, and even booking us a good restaurant for the evening. Great place. Thank you, Dominique. Hope to be back one day.

Awesome spot in old Annecy overlooking a canal!

Dominique was great in getting us oriented and settled. It was the perfect place for a few days of exploring Annecy. Right in the heart of the historical district. I would stay here again, in fact I plan to. It was great to be in a 350 year old historic building. I liked that the toilet was a separate room from shower for multiple users. Sink in each of those rooms. Cute kitchen area and the sitting room has an amazing pull out couch that my daughter slept on. One of my favorite places ever on VRBO.

Beautiful place to stay in the heart of Annecy! Dominique is very responsive and helpful. We enjoyed the walkability of the area. Great access to the markets, canal, lake, and shops. A few things to know: the property does not provide napkins/linens, Nespresso pods, or laundry detergent so you need to bring your own. Also if you want to rent a beach towel for the lake it’s 5 euros PER TOWEL. So if you like to travel light, and don’t bring a beach towel that’s an expense. All in all it’s a delightful place to stay and I’d recommend it!

Amazing place, amazing owner.

This was a gem of a find and I am not sure I should be leaving a review as we may never be able to rent this wonderful apartment in one of the nicest spots in France again. However, Dominique deserves much praise for the immaculate and clean state of the apartment. No Kmart rugs in this place. Only the best. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously for the 3 night we were there and have no reservations in recommending this place as a must do stop-over. Thank you Dominique. Kind regards and je t'aime. michael and joan

Fabulous apartment with beautiful view

This is a beautiful old building in the heart of Annecy. The entrance faces the cathedral and the back overlooks one of the most beautiful spots on the canal. Both sides are pedestrian-only and so there is no traffic noise. Our apartment was the "Warrens" and it reaches from the bedroom at the front of the building all the way to a bright sitting room at the back. In between is a large kitchen and eating area. The bedroom is huge and comfortable. The entire apartment was clean and well equipped. My wife and I prepared our meals at the apartment and the amount of money we saved not eating out more than paid for the accomodations. (There is a Monoprix a short walk away.) Our hosts were a lovely family living upstairs. Dominique provided helpful advice and recommendations on how to spend our three days in Annecy. There is no adjacent parking but free indefinite parking is available about 15 minutes away. Your best option, if you have large bags, is to drive as close as possible, park briefly while you check in and drop off your bags, and then move the car to the far side of the police station. Google Maps is of limited help because it isn't quite up-to-date on which streets are pedestrian-only and some stretches are only closed to cars at certain times of the day. I highly recommend these apartments.

Response from VrboOwner on 15 Aug, 2026
Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire et pour avoir apprécié l’emplacement, la vue sur le canal ainsi que les volumes et l’équipement de l’appartement. L’immeuble se situe au cœur du centre historique d’Annecy, dans un site classé, avec des murs anciens particulièrement épais qui contribuent naturellement à conserver une température agréable à l’intérieur. Plusieurs ventilateurs sont également mis à la disposition de nos hôtes afin d’assurer un rafraîchissement complémentaire. Dans ce cadre historique, l’installation d’une climatisation n’est malheureusement pas envisageable. Quant au bruit matinal, il est vrai que la situation en plein cœur d’une ville très touristique peut occasionnellement entraîner quelques nuisances, notamment liées aux livraisons et au nettoyage des rues. C’est le revers, parfois, du privilège de séjourner au cœur de la vieille ville, à quelques pas de toutes les animations et des principaux sites d’Annecy. Nous sommes néanmoins ravis que vous ayez passé un agréable séjour et vous remercions d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre expérience.

Excelente experiencia

Alojamiento amplio y super cómodo, tal cual se ve en las fotos! Muy limpio! Excelente comunicación con la anfitriona. Ubicación ideal, a pasos de todo! El apartamento es super cómodo para una familia de cuatro. La habitación con la cama doble es muy espaciosa con vistas a la calle, y el espacio donde está el sofá-cama es un poco más reducido pero igualmente cómodo (en especial porque es muy fácil armarlo-desarmarlo) y con una linda vista al canal. La puerta corrediza que separa a este último le da más privacidad que lo convierte en un dormitorio más! La ducha separada del WC es super práctico (al igual que las dos piletas). Ducha con muy buena presión y temperatura. En la cocina hay todo lo que se pueda llegar a necesitar. La calefacción para el invierno fue sumamente satisfactoria! En resumen: fue una estancia sumamente placentera, en un alojamiento inmejorable, que bien hacen valer los tres tramos de escalera que hay que subir!
