Zimei, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very conveniently located by the main bus line stop. Front desk and breakfast staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is very old, it has its charms and quirks but this may not be for everyone. We had everything we needed.

Great hotel in the perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay, it really was in the perfect location. We had a beautiful corner room with two balconies that had spectacular views of the mountains. The only details we would add is that the pillows were a little uncomfortable and that the shower wasn’t the best. Other than that, great stay!

Rooms had a smell, booked a single room and was very dated.

Convenient Stay With Some Hidden Surprises

The hotel has a lot going for it, but also some drawbacks that left us with mixed feelings. The Good: The location is excellent, right in the center of Montreux and close to both the bus stop and train station, which made getting around very convenient. Guests also receive a Riviera Card that provides free local transport and discounts, which was a great benefit. Our room and bathroom were clean and well-maintained, which we truly appreciated. The Not-So-Good: Our room wasn’t ready at check-in, which was inconvenient after a long journey. Another disappointment was related to breakfast. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, there’s a lively street market by the lake with plenty of food options. However, the hotel staff encouraged us to purchase the hotel breakfast without mentioning the market. We were told it would be CHF 18 per adult and that it included everything, even cooked-to-order eggs such as omelets or fried eggs. But when we went down to eat, we found that cooked eggs cost an extra CHF 7. While the breakfast was decent and convenient, the lack of transparency about the real cost felt misleading. To make matters worse, at checkout an additional CHF 6 per adult was charged for city tax, bringing the actual total to CHF 24 per person- quite expensive compared to the quality and variety available at the street fair. Overall: Great location and comfortable stay, but the lack of transparency around breakfast and extra charges left a negative impression.

Disappointed

Disappointing stay - very dated bathroom, heating did not work (was given a fan heater on request) and only 2 electrical sockets in the whole room (which the lamps were plugged into). Rest of hotel pleasant and lovely breakfast. But not good to walk into a cold room in December, also with no kettle.

I loved that it was an older building. Loved the old elevator. Great location. Excellent staff.
Andrea, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent place to live. The hotel is located in the heart of the city and has access to so many restaurants. They have a parking garage and was easily accessible which made our lives simpler. The hotel staff were amazing and were always ready to help. They all speak English and are truly very understanding.

Lei, 2-night trip

Classic hotel with adorably small elevator and multi-step stairs entry like you were in a Casablanca movie. Windows open up wide to view of street and glimpse of the lake. Friendly and helpful staff. Short walk to lake, restaurants, casino, groceries and shopping.

Great hotel! Unique rooms with chandeliers and balconies. Very comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast, perfect location. About a 15 minute walk from the train station. I'd stay here again. We were there during Jazz Fest. Lots of energy in the air.

Absolutely fabulous ! We had a lovely welcome from Constantine at check-in. A beautiful suite to stay in with all amenities and very clean. A super brasserie on the ground floor serving excellent food and drink. Dani, Lucas, Chris and Elisa giving first class service and always smiling
Paul, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location close to the train station, the lake and many bars and restaurants. Room was very neat and clean. Staff was super friendly and helpful. No air conditioning, which is not uncommon for hotels in Europe, but just be warned. There was a fan provided that kept us cool. The pillows were really soft and floppy so we requested extras.
Andrew, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

It’s an old property and needs upgrading. The room size was good, AC was a unit in the wall (no central); no tea/coffee in the room and breakfast was mediocre
Rekha, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I spent a great couple of days at this hotel - a very easy, convenient location in Montreux at an affordable price. The staff were always warm and welcoming, and the room was comfortable for me as a single traveller. The bathroom could do with being updated but overall I was very happy with the convenience of the location (right across from the Casino with the lake just behind it), the cost, and a wonderful time in Montreux. If you go, get the Montreux Riviera pass for free from the hotel - gives you some discounts on train travel (especially if you go up to the Rochers de Naye - the card offers a big discount) and free use of the buses. The casino has a public pool (just a few minutes from the hotel) which is available to use at a decent price, and the walks on the lake are wonderful. I would recommend Montreux and the surrounding area for a wonderful time in Switzerland! And this hotel was a great affordable base to explore from.
