Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly wonderful. The room had a magnificent view of the gardens and lake, newly refurbished in soothing creamy and white colors. It was absolutely perfect for a relaxing getaway. The service was top-notch, making me feel like royalty with their attention to detail and special surprises for my girlfriend's birthday. The location couldn't have been better, offering both tranquility and easy access to town and nearby attractions. Overall, a fantastic experience.
I had an absolutely fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, nicely renovated, and had a full bath plus a half bath, which was a nice feature. The service was extremely attentive, warm, and helpful. The location was excellent, right on the main street by the lake, and within walking distance of the main train station. The dining experience was amazing with a wide variety of choices. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were fabulous, very spacious with a wonderful lake view, but I was a bit bothered around midnight at the noise coming from the next room. The service was impeccable, especially thanks to Jose Gil, the Chef Concierge. The location is excellent, right next to the lake and within walking distance of the main train station, making it easy to explore the area. The dining experience was beyond reproach, with rich and diverse options delivered promptly. Overall, a great hotel deserving of its high rating.
I had a great stay at the hotel, with amazing lake and mountain views from my room. The room was comfortable, and being on a far corner of the hotel provided some privacy. However, there were a few issues with dinner reservations, but the service was generally professional and attentive. The location was perfect for exploring the city and enjoying the beautiful surroundings, overlooking the lake and with the Alps in the distance. The dining experience was a bit overpriced, but the food quality made up for it. Overall, a nice hotel with some room for improvement.
The hotel provided us with rooms that were more spacious than the average hotel room, offering a better view of the lake and mountains. However, the room was a bit basic compared to the rest of the hotel. The service was somewhat absent during our 3-day stay, with occasional mishaps. The location, though busy, was unforgettable, directly across from the lake and near key attractions. Dining options were fantastic, especially at MP's, and facilities met our needs with excellence.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel, with stunning views of Lake Leman and the Alps from my room's terrace. The service was top-notch, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. However, the dining experience left something to be desired despite the beautiful surroundings.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean, and we even received a delightful upgrade. The view from our room was breathtaking, and the warm welcome at the reception made us feel right at home. However, our room wasn't made for the second night despite prior confirmation from housekeeping.
