If you are comparing Ibis hotel from most Asian countries, you need to lower your expectation for this Ibis hotel then. Staffs not so friendly. Room is small. No in-room safe, no water boiler, no sleepers. Basically nothing much in the room. We didn't really feel safe when we walked near the hotel for dinner even it was only about 6pm. Not recommended.

Brilliant hotel, with very friendly and helpful staff who allowed me to check in early and provided me with a charger to charge my phone as I did not have the correct adaptor. On each occasion staff were friendly and always wanted to help. I would definitely stay at this hotel again if in Lausanne for these reasons, but also as the hotel room was newly renovated, was comfortable and had everything we needed including UK TV channel, a spacious shower and comfortable bed. Just one thing would be that bottled water could have been provided in the room which would have been even better.

Great location! Within walking distance to almost everything. When you arrive, please take a taxi from the train station to the hotel. I think you can take the bus the number 4(double check). The rooms are small and you don't get any toiletries except liquid soap, so bring your own toothpaste, lotion, shampoo or be ready to buy some at the pharmacy outside.The staff is good and very helpful. The bar is open 24 hours and the hotel is full of people from different countries. Don't panic when they ask you to pay for the entire stay when you arrive, it was different but checking out is faster. The location is absolutely perfect!

Dear Voka,Thank you very much for your detailed comment and valuable advice! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our ideal location and that most attractions are within walking distance of our hotel. This certainly makes it more convenient for our guests to explore the city.Regarding transfers from the train station, you're right, it's often easier to take a cab to get to the hotel quickly,buses 3 and 21 can also be a convenient option, depending on each traveler's preferences.We take note of your comments on room size and toiletries. We try to keep our rates competitive by offering standard-sized rooms, but we're always willing to improve our offering based on customer feedback. Thank you for sharing this useful information for future travelers.We're glad you found our staff good and helpful. We always strive to provide friendly and efficient service to our guests.Regarding the settlement of the stay on arrival, we understand that this may seem unusual, but it helps us to speed up the check-out process, as you mentioned.We are delighted that you had a pleasant stay with us and that you were happy with our location. We hope to see you again on your next visit to the area, and please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or need anything else. Thanks again for your feedback!

It was ok. Not Special. I believed I had booked and paid for breakfast. Apparently Not, according to them . ( They said they had a power cut the day before, so that held up my check in, Plus all the others who followed me in ). Check in desk was tiny and located at the Bar, which was not very evident when entering through the main entrance.

Location was very good, but with the amazing public transport this isn’t that important. I witnessed some very rude behaviour from one of the staff towards another guest. And also saw a guest get checked in to a room that was already occupied. Overall, you could do a lot better than this place.

This hotel was excellent for the price point. While the room was relatively small with basic amenities, it was updated, clean and quiet. The bed was very comfortable which in my experience isn't always easy to find in Europe. The AC worked great. The hotel is in walking distance to shopping, restaurants, city sites and transportation. The staff was friendly and helpful.
