Le Clos des Sens
Annecy’s most acclaimed restaurant—part of the discreetly luxurious Le Clos de Sens hotel in the hilly environs of Annecy-le-Vieux just north of the old town—is a destination in itself and one you’ll need to book in advance. Keeping it local is chef Franck Derouet’s overriding principle in these exquisitely crafted seasonal dishes: fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers from the restaurant’s garden, fish from Lac d’Annecy, everything else within a 100km (62-mile) radius.
Should you wish to stay, the 11 supremely stylish rooms are beautiful places to take in views of the lake, and some have in-room hot tubs. Doubles from 370€–480€.
