What can I say? Great, great location, get a room with a view of the lake and the Alps. Attentive staff. Nice, clean, spacious rooms. So much attention to detail - weighing scale, L'Occitane hand cream at night, all the bath amenities you need and more, very, very quick and efficient service. Lots of reading material on the town in... More

On my 7th visit to Switzerland during a span of a quarter of a century, I thought of choosing Vevey as a base for a short stay in the French part of this beautiful country. Having previously been in hotels in Lausanne (Beau Rivage and Movenpick) and in Montreux.... Grand Hotel du Lac in tiny Vevey was this time's choice,... More

All, I have been a follower of TripAdvisor for years now, and I felt compelled to write a review finally because of this hotel. Where to start!? A fantastic location, beautiful decor, friendly staff, excellent cuisine and a great bar. I think the lobby is my favorite spot, there are basically 5 separate rooms (if you include the restaurant) and... More

My wife and I spent one night there while traveling through Swiss Riviera. The hotel is wonderful in all senses. On arrival we were greeted by Claire - a very nice young lady who very quickly and efficiently checked us in, showed around the hotel and then to our room. As it was my birthday, they upgraded us to their... More

I've stayed in Grand Hotel Du Lac twice in the last 3 years and I must say that it is one of my favorite hotels in the world. It is absolutely beautiful and upon arriving here you are just transported to another world. The hotel decor is exquisite and the staff excellent-- you literally feel like royalty. The courtyard outside... More

Wow! After 4 days of non-stop work on a work trip to Geneva I decided to pamper myself with one night at the Grand Hotel du Lac! An extravagant splurge but I'm so satisfied that I did it. The view was probably the best part (I went for the view of the lake) - with the mountains in the background... More

I only came here because there was a great deal, which made it cheaper than the hotels which fell within the company travel policy. Still, this is billed as a five star hotel, and I think it should be reviewed as such. The decor is fabulous. The service is attentive, possibly too much for those who are freaked out to... More
