Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers separate rooms with individual bathrooms, but lacks modern amenities like a coffee machine and mini-bar. The decor appears worn out and in need of renovation. The staff is friendly and helpful, though a cracked washbasin was noted. The location is strategic for exploring Lausanne, with easy access to key attractions. Dining options are varied but slightly pricey. Overall, a mixed experience with room for improvement.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were nice, equipped with the latest amenities, and I particularly enjoyed the breathtaking view from my corner room on the 3rd floor. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, providing a high standard of Swiss hospitality. The location was great, within easy walking distance to the metro, restaurants, and the historic area. The dining experience was good, especially the omelette station, and the facilities were top-notch.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms offered a beautiful view of Lake Leman and the Alps, they were not as expected - outdated and in need of renovation. The lack of amenities like a coffee machine and snacks was disappointing. The service, on the other hand, was exceptional, with helpful and friendly staff who even arranged a same-day medical appointment for me. The location was convenient, despite some construction noise, being close to the metro and key attractions. The dining options were limited to room service, but the food quality was good.
My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful! The room was beautiful, boasting stunning views of the lake and spacious accommodations. The service throughout the hotel, especially at the brasserie, was incredibly friendly and helpful. The location was ideal, right in the heart of Lausanne with breathtaking views of the lake. The dining experience was delightful, from the excellent breakfast to the cozy café-style atmosphere. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
The hotel offers large rooms with a fantastic near-panoramic view of the city, the lake, and the mountains. The rooms are spacious and very clean, providing a comfortable stay. However, the dining prices can be on the higher side, and the service encountered a rude incident from a waiter.
