Beautiful place and service.

This is my second time visiting The Palace hotel. The staff is hugely attentive from the moment you get in. The rooms are spacious, well kept and for my purposes, an excellent set up for working with a very comfortable desk. The gym was surprisingly spacious and well stocked with free and cardio equipment. Breakfast was excellent but a bit pricey at 45 Francs! Had I been with my family that would’ve been 200 Francs for breakfast!? Stay in and have dinner at the hotel restaurant, Grande Chene. All kinds of seafood, but I had the steak tartar as well. All in all, a lovely property. Try to get a room looking towards the water or don’t spend the extra cash and just get a room in the high floors facing the Cathedral. Beautiful!

Amazing stay!

Thank you for an incredible one-night stay! The lake view from my room was breathtaking, and the entire day was truly restful. A special shoutout to people at reception for making me feel so welcomed. The fruit plate and complimentary minibar were delightful touches that enhanced my experience. I also had an amazing dinner at your restaurant—every dish was delicious. Looking forward to my next visit!

Hotel and service was excellent. Stayed for two nights and had a noisy party in the room in the late evening next to us the first night. When we reported the incident to the hotel, they took care of it and was very apologetic and responsive in following up with us.Overall, a very nice stay
