10/10 Excellent
"The location was convenient and close to the metro. Our bathroom was extremely small with a high tub, why any hotel puts tubs in instead of showers I’ll never understand. There are several buildings and the pictures are deceiving. The hotel picture on the website isn’t the one you will be staying in. Beware that one pictured is a block away and is where the spa is. Pool was not heated at the building we were in. Staff could have been more friendly."

"Very nice hotel in a convenient location (close to the train station and metro and not very steep climb compared to other hotels in the area). This is an older property but very well maintained and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. They even had coffeemaker and a fridge which was not the case with other Swiss hotels I stayed in. Elevator was very handy. Overall, it is a great place to stay"

"Hôtel relativement bien situé, à proximité de plusieurs restaurants et du métro, avec également un stationnement à proximité. La chambre était un peu petite, mais confortable, avec une agréable petite terrasse. Nous avons aussi apprécié qu’ils aient gracieusement retiré les frais d’early check-in. Le petit déjeuner était assez varié et bien fourni. Seul point négatif : la climatisation a cessé de fonctionner lors de notre dernière nuit et il faisait malheureusement très chaud dans la chambre, ce qui a rendu la nuit moins confortable. Dans l’ensemble, une bonne expérience et un hôtel bien situé pour un séjour à Lausanne."
