Hotel is in a great position at the end of railway platform. We had a very friendly welcome. Room had everything we needed but was a little sparce, fresh coat of paint and a clean lampshade would have made a big difference. We did appreciate the balcony and the the price was reasonable for the area

We loved the fact that Freddie pictures were everywhere. Loved the plates and mugs and glasses with the Freddie pose. The breakfast was good and they had gluten free options for me. The bed was comfortable. The staff were lovely. My sister sent us flowers for our 50th wedding anniversary and she had to chase them up. My daughter sent loads of emails asking the staff to put fruit in our room. She never got a reply, but we appreciated that it was a training hotel and absolutely loved all the Freddie stuff. We will visit again.

Parfait pour Montreux

Hotel tres propre. Chambre agréable et propre. Lit confortable. Proximité du bord de l'eau et de la navette ( bateau ). STATIONNEMENT interieur ( toute une experience avec l'ascenseur de voiture). Quelques restaurants à proximité, un café boulangerie tout prés .Seul bémol la gare mais assez bien insonorisé et avec le lit , on s' endort facilement.

Not what I expected

I was disappointed with this hotel. The ratings said that it was superb, however there was nothing superb about this hotel. It's was not clean and the furniture was below average. The price doesn't match the offering.

Love the Location of this hotel, it’s right off platform 1 of the train station, super convenient. Room is spacious and clean. Bed is very comfortable. The only downside is that there’s no outlet near the bed which is inconvenient for charging the phone. Overall we had great time staying.

Ideally located for train travellers - you can access it straight from the end of platform 1. Quiet and clean with friendly and helpful staff and positioned just 2 minutes up hill from the lake, it was perfect for our needs. The only downsides for us were the breakfast (not good and extremely expensive) and the fact that our quad room had a shared balcony with another room and only 3 chairs on it.

The property was well located, very modern and in good condition. We had a room with views to the lake. The reception staff were very attentive and very willing to help. A great breakfast was available. The hotel also has laundry facilities. If you have a car book ahead for parking. The only negative was the lack of power points which made it difficult to charge accessories or use a hair dryer. Would stay again.
