The Beau-Rivage Palace has built a reputation for being one of Europe's favorite hotels for its service and high quality. Located in 4 acres of parkland, on the banks of Lake Geneva in Lausanne, the elegant belle époque buildings of the Beau-Rivage Palace command breathtaking views across the lake to the majestic French Alps beyond. Sumptuous architecture, antiques and fine reproductions steep guests in the glorious past in both public and private spaces. On the other hand, guests feel instantly at home, thanks to the warm and attentive staff, which includes Switzerland's only female chief concierge.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.8 for a two-person trip.
