Arriving at the airport is easy — it's the last mile that defeats travellers. Your Annecy hotel is often tucked into a narrow street the map app can't resolve. Here's the reliable way to get from the airport to your Annecy hotel, and how photo directions cover the final stretch.
From Geneva (GVA): bus or shuttle to Annecy (~1 hour, Alps Shuttle or FlixBus). From Lyon (LYS): direct TER train or bus (~2 hours). Save an imhere route from the bus stop for the final walk through the old town's lanes to your hotel.
Start from the Palais de l'Isle, the church of Saint-Maurice or the lake promenade. Follow the photos past the canal bridges and the flower boxes. Where two identical bridges cross the Thiou, the photo of the railing or the cafe terrace tells you which one to take.
In Annecy, streets in the old town are often unlabelled or the pins drift. Instead of trusting a blue dot, follow photographed landmarks: a red door, a bakery corner, a distinctive sign. Each step compares what you see with a real photo, so there is no guessing.
Open the imhere route at your pickup point once, and it stays usable offline — no roaming, no data plan needed. Build the route from your hotel or station, then share it with every arriving guest via a QR code.
