We chose this hotel due to its location, availability of a comfortable room with four to sleep, and link to Freddie Mercury. It is basically right at the train station - a key reason why we chose it - but the noise from the trains in the late night and early morning made it impossible to sleep uninterrupted. Had I known about the train noise, we could have bought those new headphones designed to be worn when sleeping and would have been fine.

Great location. Right at train station platform 1, so very convenient for those riding train. Clean. Nice amenities and extras, like bottled water, Coffee and tea in room with a tea kettle. They even had umbrellas in room for rainy days. Great room with patio, however weather didn't cooperate. Friendly staff. Mattress was a little dipped in middle. Overall, a great stay!

The Freddie Mercury Hotel offered good value and it’s the training facility for a local hospitality school. Location is excellent for walking around Montreux and taking the train as the station is less than 5 mins walk away. Having secure parking downstairs inside the hotel was a big bonus.
