Hotel tres accueillant et original au niveau déco. Le personnel est sympathique et professionnel. Situation au top, pres de la gare et du centre ville mais neanmoins tres calme. Propreté à souligner et le petit plus une bouilloire avec cafe dans la chambre. Aucune hésitation pour mon prochain sejour

Very welcoming staff that is ready to help. Perfect location in case you come or leave by train. Very nice and pleasant neighborhood with a direct access to a metro line that brings you all the way down to the lake and the city center. The property is clean and nicely taken care of, but could be renewed. Thank you once again for having us, we enjoyed the stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Terrible!

Booked it because it is close to the station. It was the worst stay in Switzerland by far : dust all over the room ( left with an allergy crisis; last one was years ago....), the floor cleaning was done with dirty water, which left an horrible odor in the room, reception told me the breakfast was not included and had to prove it to correct it, they claimed the key when I already given it and said I will receive an email if they cannot find it.. ( thanks for basically making me feel like I am a liar and a stealer), the check-in took a while (even though 2 people were at the reception...)

駅の裏、徒歩1、2分です。表側に出てしまいウロウロしてましたが、Hotels→ と標識が出てました。思っていたより、ずっと静かです。駅や電車の音はまったく気になりませんでした。タオル類はたっぷり。電気ポットにコーヒーやティーパックたっぷり。１人で宿泊するには充分に広い部屋ですが、2人だと荷物を置く場所がないかもしれません。洗面台の栓の上げ下げのやり方、このタイプを見たことない人にはわかりづらいかも。台の下側で上げ下げします。

必要なものはすべて揃ったお値打ちホテル

ローザンヌ駅から徒歩1分弱。部屋からは駅のホームが望めます。もちろん列車の発着音や駅アナウンスもはっきりと聞こえるので、音に敏感な方にはおすすめできません。部屋はたいへん狭いですが清潔で、特にバスルームは改装されて間もないようで快適に利用できました。部屋に冷蔵庫はありませんが、ポットやティーバッグが用意されています。朝食室は列車座席を模したベンチが並んでいて楽しい雰囲気。朝食も種類豊富で美味しかったです。スタッフも親切です。宿泊費の高いローザンヌのホテルのなかではお値打ちなのではと思います。

Очень интересное внутреннее убранство как в поезде высшего качества. Удобно расположен для путешествующих по ривьере Женевского озера. Несмотря на то что находится рядом с вокзалом, в отеле тишина, достойный завтрак, очень приятное и внимательное обслуживание на ресепшен
