The hotel is in a great location of Montreaux. From the train station you walk about 100m then cross the street to look for an elevator that will ride you and your luggage down towards the street level of Grand-Rue. You'll walk for a about 50 meters and the hotel entrance is right there in between a restaurant and a cheese shop. The lobby or front desk is on the 3rd level so you need to ride the elevator up. It is an old building so the floors will squeak, no aircondition but they provide an electric fan. We were there in early June so the weather at night is not too warm which was fine. We open the window and we had a room facing the lake. There is an additional cost to get a room facing the lake but it is a bit noisy from the trucks and buses in the middle of the night or early morning. The room faces west so the sun is hard in the afternoon. The shower area is small so the shower curtain would normally stick to your body when you are inside. The bathroom is small even when we had a 3 bed room. The location is quite good, just across the hotel is the lake cruise boat. The bus also stop near the entrance of the hotel. The tourist info center is just diagonally across the entrance. There is a small mall which has some grocery and restaurants a few meters away. The breakfast is a bit limited but fine. The person on the front desk would greet you by name and would give advices on where to go during the day. The cleaning could be improved, they normally just fixed the bed and replace the towels but didn't really vacuumed or clean the floors well especially under the bed. It really is a 3 star or less of a hotel but the location is great.

This hotel has a wonderful central lakeside position. The building dates back to 1904 and some areas of the hotel are in need of updating. The current owner is undergoing upgrading the hotel. That said our high ceiling room had been renovated with a first class bed and lovely new bathroom. We managed to soak up the late afternoon sun on our balcony sipping wine overlooking the lake and watching the world go by. The manager David is really friendly and helpful- he made us very welcome. We were only here for one night but would have been very happy to stay longer. I would thoroughly recommend a stay at this hotel as it is very good value and the character of the place is a refreshing change from the modern corporate style hotels.
