Golf Hotel René Capt  

Loved that we were within walking distance to all of Montreux, especially being so close to the lake. The breakfasts were lovely and the staff were very helpful and friendly, despite our appalling attempts at speaking French, which they took with good grace!

Like so many others have said, if you plan to stay here, you should be aware that a train line runs right behind almost all of the lake front hotels including the Golf Hotel. If you can, ask for a lake view room or a partial lake view room (which we had). Costs a bit extra, but reduces the noise somewhat. Oh, and the bathroom is pretty small too. Clean, everything you could want is in there, it's just very small.

Very beatiful view and clean despite the facilites are old. Good location whiel Montreux is a samll city and easy to anywhere on walk or bus. There is very good Chinese restaurant (荣华）near the hotel.

The rooms located at the lake side has a wonderful view.

The rooms located at the main entrance (road) side is very noisy due to the train that is passing with very high noise.

The hotel is situated on the promenade along Lac Lemat at one end of Montreux so the rooms facing the lake have no car traffic but a direct view of Lac Lemat and lush landscaping. The castle of Chillon is visible from some of the rooms and is walking distance from the hotel. Our room had a balcony to enjoy the spectacular scenery of this lake and surroundings. The staff was cordial and spoke many languages. We were given a" Montreux Riviera" card upon check-in which gives you access to public transportation within the city for free and discounts to various activities--for example 50% discount on admission to the castle. Room was clean and ready early. Breakfast was lovely buffet and served in the grand dining room overlooking the lake. We booked ahead for parking which we strongly recommend that one does so. Also we were able to extend our stay one night and the hotel honored the online pricing. Overall a very pleasant stay in a lovely lakeside town.

The hotel needs some light refurbishing--ceiling in our room needed to be painted , our balcony furniture was inexpensive plastic white table and 2 chairs that have seen better days. There was no air conditioning and we happened to arrive on quite a warm day with a little humidity; we slept with the balcony doors open but since there was no breeze it was a little uncomfortable to sleep. The hotel should have a swimming pool for those who do not want to swim in the lake.

Very nice and clean rooms, clean toilets, nice lobby and beautiful lake view. The staff is vey kind and friendly tying to fulfil wishes of guest.

The location of the hotel is close to railroad so that very noisy frequent trains very often disturb guests, particularly during the night. Rooms facing the lake side are better in that sense, but they are much more expensive. The hotel staff this time was kind enough to offer us a standard room facing the lake at the convenient price.

Hotel was cozy, clean and nice design. Breakfast was great.

The train passing just beside the hotel and it is too noisy in the night and morning.

It's my second time here. I chose this hotel because it's strategically positionned for my business and has a good relationship quality/price. This time I booked a single room but I was upgraded on a good double room with balcony and lake view. The only thing you could be "afraid" of is that many rooms are in the basement, but then I saw it had a nice balcony, so everything's ok. The hotel is 10 min walk from Montreux city centre, if needed bus stop just in front ! parking available in front of the hotel (free from 7pm to 7am).

-Lights in the corridor (basement) with sensor is switching on/off too much quickly. Already told to the reception -breakfast is very good, I would only add a choice of vegetables

Everything, the atmosphere was nice, it was not annoyingly luxury but very nice and pleasant also view of the lake is marvelous.

Everything, people design music that played food it was nice for price I payed it was more than I expected.

Staff were really friendly and helpful. They were very happy to speak English with me which I really appreciated. Room was lovely. Breakfast was great. Great location.

It was noisy at night time. I don't know what the noise was - sounded like I was next to the elevator and could hear it going up and down throughout the night. Weird thing was my room wasn't anywhere near the elevator, so don't know where the noise was coming from. It was a annoying to listen to.

The style and quality of the Golf Hotel Rene Cap belong to another era. This Swiss hotel in the prime position in Montreux looks out on Lake Leman and the Alps. The view, the high ceilings and the decor are each enough of an enticement to take one into a feeling of being in an alternative dimension. Simply the best hotel experience we have ever had. The opportunity to stay there and reservation, made at the last minute after deciding against a potential for lost holiday time in a bad position in the city, was made possible by Bookings dot com.

Location on Lake Geneva walk path and near bus stop.

My two grown daughters and I booked a deluxe triple room and stayed 3 nights. It was very clean and spacious, as was the bathroom. Our room had a small balcony that looked out on Lake Geneva. The hotel staff was extremely helpful. The breakfast buffet offered many choices and was very nice. Due to arrival timing, we also had dinner at the hotel. The food and service was very good but I thought the prices were higher than they needed to be, even giving it was a hotel dining room (outside terrace, actually - the dining room was closing) The hotel location is fabulous - directly on the Lake, & only a few bus stops from Chateau Chillon, the train station, & shopping & restuarants. We received a "Montreux Riviera" card upon check-in, which allowed us to use the local bus system. It was a lovely hotel I would return to, if in the area again.

We booked a triple room (without lake view) and when we checked in were given a double room (with a cot made up) but with a beautiful Lake Geneva view/balcony for the same price. The lake view definately made up for the smaller room.The toiletries were really skimpy, one very small bar of soap, shower gel in bath and a shower cap. So, you might want to bring your own.The hotel was clean and seemed to be freshly painted and decorated . Wonderful breakfast included and very helpful bi-ligual front desk staff. I would stay here again and recommend it to friends.
