Spacious and clean rooms. Excellent view from the room. You can get water/tea from the communal area at the 2nd floor. Friendly and helpful staff member. Convenient to explore Lausanne and the Lavaux area with the free Lavaux Transport card.

Being off season no staff were on site, but the sister hotel up the hill enabled room access. Room was well equipped and generous size with views across the lake - though sadly was foggy. Breakfast was also in the sister hotel and had a good choice of hot and cold options freshly prepared.

Beautiful spot.

Beautiful location right on the lake - the view outside of my room looked like a postcard. This was my first day on this section of the Via Francigena and I could not have been more pleased with the comfort (great bathtub!) and cleanliness. We did not eat the hotel but found a different (slightly cheaper) spot in town just a short walk away and several options for drinks.

Authenticity abounds! Avoid staying in any lakeside room above restaurant. We were kept awake by a rave party directly below us until 1:00 AM. Apparently, these parties normally end at 10:00 PM which is still too late for many people. Our lake view was obscured anyway by large deciduous trees shading the outdoor seating area.

Such a pity that one arrogant and blatantly rude waiter can put such a damper on the entire experience. Hotel location is unbeatable and rooms are very clean and tidy. Bed extremely comfortable.

Fantastic view over Lake Geneva from our room. Quirky layout and no TV. May not be everyone's cup of tea but I liked it.

Superfint läge! Otrolig plats att äta frukost med barnet springandes på uteplatsen medan vi fick dricka kaffe. Fint frukostutbud. Blev ombedd online, att innan check-in ge information om pass och kreditkort etc för att det skulle bli smidigare på plats, men väl på plats gick vi igenom hela processen ändå. Alla i personalen kan inte engelska vilket gick okej då en i sällskapet kan någorlunda franska, men bra att veta! Rekommenderar!
