Three stars above the lake

Le Clos des Sens sits at the top of Annecy-le-Vieux, with a view over the town and the lake. It is a restaurant with three Michelin stars and a small Relais & Châteaux hotel. Its cooking defines itself as lacustrine and plant-based: lake fish and vegetables and herbs from its terraced gardens, all anchored to the region. You eat in a room of sober lines or, in good weather, on the terrace in the shade of centuries-old chestnut trees.

In summer it also sets up Le Cortil, a pop-up table in the herb garden with sharing dishes cooked over embers, more informal than the main room.

How to book

Tables are booked online from its website, on the Zenchef system, and the Cortil has its own booking. The website does not publish hours or menu prices: you see them when choosing a date. It is the special meal of the trip, for an anniversary or the end of the journey.

Getting there

It is at 13 rue Jean Mermoz, in Annecy-le-Vieux, about ten minutes by car from the old town. The house has parking and electric-car chargers. The room is wheelchair accessible with help, although the tourist office says it has no adapted toilet.

What to order: the tasting menu; in summer, dinner on the terrace under the chestnut trees.
