Very conveniently located by the main bus line stop. Front desk and breakfast staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is very old, it has its charms and quirks but this may not be for everyone. We had everything we needed.

We really enjoyed our stay, it really was in the perfect location. We had a beautiful corner room with two balconies that had spectacular views of the mountains. The only details we would add is that the pillows were a little uncomfortable and that the shower wasn’t the best. Other than that, great stay!

Disappointing stay - very dated bathroom, heating did not work (was given a fan heater on request) and only 2 electrical sockets in the whole room (which the lamps were plugged into). Rest of hotel pleasant and lovely breakfast. But not good to walk into a cold room in December, also with no kettle.

Excellent place to live. The hotel is located in the heart of the city and has access to so many restaurants. They have a parking garage and was easily accessible which made our lives simpler. The hotel staff were amazing and were always ready to help. They all speak English and are truly very understanding.

Great hotel! Unique rooms with chandeliers and balconies. Very comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast, perfect location. About a 15 minute walk from the train station. I'd stay here again. We were there during Jazz Fest. Lots of energy in the air.

Absolutely fabulous ! We had a lovely welcome from Constantine at check-in. A beautiful suite to stay in with all amenities and very clean. A super brasserie on the ground floor serving excellent food and drink. Dani, Lucas, Chris and Elisa giving first class service and always smiling

I spent a great couple of days at this hotel - a very easy, convenient location in Montreux at an affordable price. The staff were always warm and welcoming, and the room was comfortable for me as a single traveller. The bathroom could do with being updated but overall I was very happy with the convenience of the location (right across from the Casino with the lake just behind it), the cost, and a wonderful time in Montreux. If you go, get the Montreux Riviera pass for free from the hotel - gives you some discounts on train travel (especially if you go up to the Rochers de Naye - the card offers a big discount) and free use of the buses. The casino has a public pool (just a few minutes from the hotel) which is available to use at a decent price, and the walks on the lake are wonderful. I would recommend Montreux and the surrounding area for a wonderful time in Switzerland! And this hotel was a great affordable base to explore from.

Old and tatty. Grateful for lift up to reception. Room tiny and old. Missing tiles on bathroom floor. Shower is antiquated. Pre booked breakfast CHF 18 or 20 at the door. Not worth the money. Nothing hot, 2 types of sliced meat andv2 cheese. Some bread, pastries, yoghurt, fruit. Staff i encountered were nice. Beware when you check out that they hit you with city tax, which I knew nothing about.
