Piscine de Saint-Gervais

""

"Piscine qui pourrait être un vrai plus pour la ville de saint Gervais, mais entre le tarif de l’entrée qui a augmenté, les douches régulièrement froide et les horaires non mise à jour sur le site internet lors des fermetures exceptionnelles, le service n’est pas au rendez-vous"

"Great pool for families looking for an afternoon activity on holiday or weekends. We came here for an afternoon, visiting from Geneva, together with our two children another family with young children. The staff was very welcoming, the changing rooms comfortable, and the pool area excellent; there’s a large pool for adults/lane swimming, and two small ones for children: one shallow one for the very little ones, with a mini toboggan and some water games, and a deeper one (80-110cm) which worked perfectly for children aged 3-4. The views from the pool are breathtaking, with the Alps right out front. There’s also a sauna and relaxation area on the first floor, which we didn’t try, as it’s adults only. Small caveats include: - you cannot wear swimming shorts (but there is a vending machine to buy tights) - the lockers only work with euro coins (but you can ask staff for “jetons” if you don’t carry cash) - the pool temperature is fine, but not tropical. Parking is great, but choose one of the spots away from the street, which can be busy (it’s easy to miss the entrance, as it’s straight after the main building and easy to miss). We didn’t try the cafeteria, which looked abandoned, but someone told us it was open, but worked with vending machines."

"Heerlijk verwarmd zwembad. Vriendelijk personeel, kunst aan de muren. Misschien samen met het olympisch zwembad in Deauville, het mooiste uitzicht van heel Frankrijk."

"Fait le job. c'est fonctionnel. L'espace sauna hammam manque de caractère, ça fait un peu austère... malgré la chaleur."
