Hotel Mirabeau, BW Signature Collection

Hotel Mirabeau, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice hotel 5 minute walk from the train station. Very clean and good standard. We were given a free room upgrade which was great. The breakfast has 2 options- continental or full, which is good. Staff on reception were generally helpful, lending us a phone charger and travel adapter. Air conditioning in the room didn’t work properly and the room was very hot, however they did offer to switch rooms."

Carlton Lausanne Boutique Hotel

Carlton Lausanne Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"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."

"Great location very near the station. Excellent and very helpful staff- there was a problem with my booking but Maya very kindly helped me sort it out. Nice very clean room , which was quiet for such a central location in a city, because the hotel is situated in a quiet, pleasant side street, and very good and varied breakfast. Note that my room had a bath with a shower in it , not a walk in shower, which less mobile people might prefer, though there is a hand rail. Altogether I was very happy with my stay and hope to return."

"We have an amazing and relaxing stay at Beau Rivage. The room was very comfortable with lovely amenities. We enjoyed an afternoon by the pool and appreciated the attentive pool staff. Beautiful views of Lake Geneva. Several food options on site. Walkable into town and the path along the lake. All the staff were very friendly and helpful with anything we needed. Thank you for the lovely lemon cake to celebrate my daughter's birthday. It was a wonderful surprise. Highly recommend."
