    Cute and cozy, on the lake

    The room could get hot and stuffy as it was summer, but the provided fan was heavy duty enough to make it comfortable.

    The location- at the lake, and an easy walk to the train station. The view from my room (I went with a lake view, was worth it!). I stayed for 3 nights and it was small but perfect for me with lots of luggage. Comfy bed, clean and simple bedroom and bathroom. I liked the breakfast. I could have written a novel from this room. The concierge was awesome. I’d love to stay here again.

    Charming lake side retreat.

    • Superior Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Because of the heat outside, our room was very hot at night and the provided ventilator did not help much. Also, upon check-out, we were billed double for the room which had been pre-paid. While that can happen, it took the only available staff to serve breakfast and man the reception very long to figure out the invoicing & reimbursement. These things happen and it was resolved, but clearly many smaller hotels suffer from understaffing.

    The location directly on the lake shore is fabulous. The hotel is cosy, the rooms simple and modern. We had a balcony with a beautiful lake view.

    The room was very warm so it would have been good to have a single sheet as well as the warm duvet.

    Staff were super friendly and very helpful. The restaurant food was super and the location was fabalous. Also very acomodating for the dogs.

    This is not unusual and ok for the price, but travelers should be aware that there is no a/c. A powerful table fan is provided, but it can only do so much in a heat wave.

    simple accommodations directly on the lake.

    nothing at all except the shortage of nearby car parking especially in high season

    the recently new owner has really upgraded what was a tired hotel. the situation is incomparable, as are the views of the lake, the Savoy Alps, the beautiful lake steamers calling at the jetty ….The staff are great, the rooms neat and clean, loads of sitting out or in areas, abundant trees for shade

    Very difficult to park. No spaces when we arrived so just had to wait for one to come available. We didn't stay for breakfast because it was so expensive. Latch on window shutter was broken so the wind made the shutter close and open making a squealing noise in the night.

    Hotel is located right on Lake Geneva and the walking paths along the lake. Room had an excellent view over the lake. Beds were so very comfortable, best beds of our whole trip. Had a nice dinner in the restaurant.

    Sumptuous boutique hotel in beautiful lake front setting

    Poor communications - I received generic promotional communications, but got no answer to my two requests for information about check-in, bag drop off and whether they issue a public transport explore card for the area. It was only when I telephoned, that I got an answer and indeed was able to check-in early. The sound insulation is very poor- I could hear everything going on in the room next door and they weren't being noisy. The door knockers rattle whenever you move the door to the room, so entry/exiting the room is inherently noisy. I hated having to give my credit card details to access WiFi, it really shouldn't be that complicated and I worry about data security. Bed is probably too soft for quality sleep as opposed to luxury lazing.

    Fabulous location in a cute village surrounded by vineyards (Lavaux) and right on Lake Geneva with views to the Alps. Sumptuous bed, bedding, towels and dressing gown to cosy up into. Room was a comfortable temperature. Bathroom has a roomy shower. Immaculately clean throughout. Character, tasteful decor and the history behind the place. Tea-making facilities in the hallway on 2nd floor. Nice common areas with plenty of space and cosy chairs to relax. I was grateful to be able to leave my bag for a while after check-out.
