Nice place, but check room size.

Initially our room was tiny with no closet or drawers, but they did move us into one with closets and things were better. Location is great for accessing the metro.

Amazing staff!

We had the most comfortable stay at the boutique! It’s located right off the metro so traveling around the city could not have been more convenient. The boutique itself was stunning and the hotel staff went out of their way to make sure our stay was memorable! Very special thanks to Yulia and Maeve for recommending and booking our train ride through Lavaux! It was such a sweet gesture.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. There were no food or beverage services during the day and evening. We did not make use of the breakfast service. Would stay here again, especially as the main metro line runs by the hotel.

Great Hotel.

We arrived a couple of hours before check-in but were able to leave our car at the hotel whilst we went down to the lake front. Hotel was very well presented inside, not much space to move around in the room as bed and furniture take up a lot of space. However, having a balcony made up for this and was very welcome. The city train system runs alongside the hotel with a station right next to it. Would recommend using this to get to either the lake or city centre. The only negative was breakfast was very expensive at CHF30 per person. Overall though the hotel comes highly recommended.

When I made the reservation I said to include breakfast. I prepaid for the room including breakfast. At check-in I was told it didn't include breakfast and they wanted to charge an additional $25 per person just for breakfast. That would have been $50 more!!!!

The staff were wonderful. They went out of their way to make sure our stay was comfortable and worry free. They booked cabs, held and delivered packages to us, kept our room immaculate and always greeted us each time we arrived or departed the building. We loved that a Métro station was right next to the hotel and a Métro Transport Card was included with our room. We used it frequently allowing us to explore many parts of the city where we also walked a lot. Since Lausanne is on a hill, you’re either going up or down and the Métro was a good option. The hotel is located halfway between the train station and Lac Léman. There is a lovely café just a few doors down and plenty of good restaurants within walking distance. The restaurant at the Carlton Lausanne Boutique Hotel is superb and they also serve a very tasty breakfast buffet with a wide variety of hot and cold choices. This was the perfect base for our week’s stay in Lausanne and we will definitely stay there the next time we’re in Lausanne.

Lovely boutique hotel. Our room had a balcony. Conveniently next to the Metro which is underground here so not noisy. Our room pretty, but small; only one foot between bed and desk/tv stand and barely adequate on sides. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Historic hotel - stunning decor

Fantastic location, historic hotel that has been well maintained. Looking at the photos on the walls was a step back in time. Our room was comfortable, clean and quiet. The decor in the room was amazing being true to era but either recently touched up or simply very well maintained. The hotel helped us fill out the form to get free public transit. It’s a lovely walk to the lake, or an easy (free) tram ride. Highly recommend this hotel.

Belle adresse pour un séjour à Lausanne

Séjour court pris à la dernière minute. Hôtel très bien situé (50m métro 2), accueil excellent avec surclassement. Titres de transport en commun offert (pê tous les hôtels de Lausanne...). Petit déjeuner correct mais un peu onéreux. Chambre plutôt jolie et classique, bien équipée. Un peu de bruit sourd provenant probablement de l'ascenseur adjacent. Bar lounge pas très lounge (lobby) et boisson servi par l'équipe d'accueil, sans choix très vaste de cocktail.
