Living at La Verniaz - Hôtel La Verniaz

The art of enjoying oneself

- Hey Mum, how about a game of ping-pong?
- Oh, sweetheart, this morning’s bike ride was great fun but absolutely exhausting. Let me relax here at La Potinière, I’ve started a great novel and this tea is absolutely delicious. Why not ask your father?
- But Dad’s playing tennis with Uncle, and I think Uncle’s winning…
- Ah. And your sister’s at the pool with her holiday friends, I suppose… She spends the whole day there, enjoying herself.
- Yes! And she told me she’s going for a pony ride later on.
- Ask Auntie then! She’s just got back from Evian and is probably working out in the fitness area next to the pool. Later, I promise, after a nice snack at the terrace bar, we’ll have a game of Molki or pétanque! Unless you’d rather play ball with your dad… The holidays have only just begun, sweetheart, so we’ve got plenty of time ahead of us to try out all the activities to be found here at La Verniaz!

A glass-fronted gym with its view of the pool provides a treadmill, rowing machine, and weights bench among other equipment. You will also find a table tennis table in the La Potinière garden. Balls and rackets are available at reception.

A short distance away, a practice tennis court is where you can play free of charge between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. Evian Tennis Club is just a few metres from the hotel and offers outdoor tennis lessons.

The surrounding area

A riding club, located opposite the hotel, organises rides plus group and individual lessons for horse-riding enthusiasts.

You can borrow our e-bikes, free of charge, from outside the reception, and head off on a lovely ride.

Evian's funicular railway, open from May to September, is a 5-minute walk from the hotel. It takes you rapidly and free of charge to the town centre and the Cachat Spring.
