Luggage storage in Annecy: the picture

Lots of visitors to Annecy arrive by train or bus from Geneva and find themselves with a bag and no hotel desk to leave it at just yet.

The station itself has no automatic SNCF left-luggage office, and the venues that do provide lockers often ban larger bags from being brought inside at all, so it pays to know which places will and won't take one before you set off. Annecy is often nicknamed the Pearl of the French Alps or the Venice of the Alps. Its medieval historic centre is known for cobbled streets, canals, and colourful buildings. The city attracts 2.5 million holidaymakers annually, primarily in summer. Annecy is the prefecture and largest city of the Haute-Savoie department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of south-eastern France. With Stasher, you can store bags from €1.49 per bag per day.

Arriving by train or coach: station storage and bus luggage rules

Gare d'Annecy is the city's multimodal hub, with the Sibra bus exchange directly out front. There is no official automatic SNCF left-luggage office inside the station itself, so you can't count on dropping a bag at the station before exploring. The line 272 coach to Geneva Airport runs about 21 return trips a day and takes roughly 1 hour 10 minutes, a handy link if you're flying out after time in the old town. On the Transdev 74 Bassin Annécien network, passengers may carry one piece of luggage weighing less than 30 kilograms for free, provided it fits under a seat or in the luggage rack. Anything larger than 50cm x 30cm x 30cm must go in the vehicle's hold, and every bag needs a label with your surname, first name, and phone number.

At the venues: bag bans and lockers

The Bonlieu exhibition centre bans bags, backpacks, and suitcases inside except for handbags, with lockers provided outside the building. The Festival d'Annecy similarly prohibits voluminous items like luggage, travel bags, and skateboards, though a luggage locker service is available at its venues.
