We didn't expect the triple room to be so spacey. The staff was very good, location extremely convenient though in any other country I would prefer to stay further from the station. I can complain about trifles (like an iron or kettle that would only turn on when a staff member was around ;-)), but overall we had a very... More

I stayed in this hotel for 4 days on a business trip. Generally it's ok, but I've expected a bit more. Room was just general, nothing special. What I disliked most of all - specific smell in hotel corridors as well as in hotel rooms. Room was clean and tidy, but with a bit worn furniture. Location of the hotel... More

we went on a 2 days business trip, and the hotel was a perfect choice. priced a bit below the classical top hotels, the place is easy to access by car and by train, and you are already in the middle of everything! the train station with all the major bus lines and cabs is just a 2 min walk... More

There is much to recommend a stay. We had polite service, a lovely room on the third floor, and, for Switzerland, a quite varied breakfast. All in all a comfortable room and a pleasant two nights. We are losing patience for hotels that charge for wireless, but at least the signal was strong and the price low -- although limited... More

Plus point of this hotel would be that it is just a 3mins upslope walk away from central gare. Be prepared to be treated rudely by staff. Whilst trying to find my way around the hotel (which was oddly shaped but not bad as there was a indoor garden), I accidentally bumped into a lift obviously not meant for guests... More

Overall satisfactory. appreciate the close-to-station location, and the reasonable price. Clean room, bathroom. comfy bed. Room was spacious. Despite being on the street side, and noting that windows were single-glazed, it was not that noisy as it was more a pedestrian street. However, in-room small repairs are needed, such as the cover of the curtain rails were sort of falling... More

Reading other reviews of this hotel I had very low expectations of this hotel. I was delighted to find out for myself that it is actually a wonderfully serene, comfortable hotel so close to the railway station that I was there in under 5 minutes (admittedly up a steep hill, but come on, this is Switzerland!). Despite it's modernity, it... More

Although the hotel Alpha Palmiers was close to the train station, that is the last thing I can think of that was a plus. We did not realize when booking that Switzerland has a rating system which includes 4 stars, then 4 star superior, 5 star, then 5 star superior. So when we were booking, we thought we had a... More

I spent 1 night at this hotel, on October 24, 2011. The hotel is conveniently located close to Lausanne Central train station but getting to the hotel is a struggle because you have to climb a huge hill with your luggage to get there. The lady that attended to me was very unwelcoming and I think was mean, all she... More
