It's a wonderful small town on the bord of Geneva lake where you can find peace, quiet, meditate and reflect as you wish to find your inner self. It's different from other swiss cities and once you were here might understand why Freddie loved it so much.

Montreux is a wonderful region that one can spend 3-4 days in easily. The lake side views are phenomenal. One can choose from multiple options such as visit vineyards around Vevey, take a train ride from Vevey to Laussane (regional one not the fast trains), explore Chillon castle, do a trip on golden express or glacier express, take a trip to Roches de Nayers and just relax and enjoy scenic beauty of the region. Highly recommended

Montreux is a wonderful location to spend your holiday.
Montreux is a wonderful location to spend your holiday. It has many restaurants to dine at. The view of the lake is stunning. There is plenty of public transport, and with free passes you can travel all around the town. And also there are a couple of free train journeys for you to travel up the mountain side. And should you feel lucky, you can try your luck at the Casino which is just across the road from the Hotel.

Two night/three days in Montreux barely scratched the surface of all the things to see and do. The charm, the location, culture and sheer beauty, especially along the lakefront captured my heart. May it capture yours, too!

Great for using as a base for travelling. Good boat trips on the lake and recommended for the Christmas Market. Riviera card saved some money when travelling with free bus travel between Vevey and Villeneuve along the lakeside.

Wonderful place.
Wonderful place. The city is confined in a narrow region between the lake and steep mountain, but still well organized without mess. There are several parking buildings which was ok during the jazz fest in September. So many wonderful places to visit if you take mountain trains from Montreux.
The Hotel was well situated for access to the amenities of Montreux, the shops, restaurants and walking distance to the Lake & it's shoreline promenade. Opposite the Hotel was a bus stop, 100m to the railway into Montreux or up the mountain to Haut des Caux. The Hotel had a lift which was great after a long day walking in the mountains or along the Lake shore. The jazz festival theme & music memorabilia throughout the Hotel gave the Hotel its own uniqueness. Breakfast though continental style was hearty with choice.
Firstly we had luggage and to go to the hotel from train station we had to climb down a long staircase and to the reception thr was another short stairs. Worst of all the lift to the rooms was nightmare. We waited for more than 15min and the lift is old. Beds not comfy. Balcony tiny. Shower head no preasure. The whole hotel is old! The worst hotel in switzerland. Staff were rude and not helpful at all.
The hotel is about 10mns walk away from the main station, and only 2-3mns away from the Montreux riviera walk. There's a bus stop right next to it with multiple bus lines.
Room was bigger than expected, and the bathroom too. Clean. Lots of towels provided. Comfortable large bed. Cozy balcony with a limited but nice view of the lake and mountains. Safe & fridge are available.
The view from the hotel is nothing short of magnificent, a panoramic spectacle that seems to embody all that Montreux has to offer. The awe-inspiring vistas of the Lake Geneva and the Swiss Alps, seen from the hotel's balconies, offer a sight to behold. This is a unique selling point of the Excelsior that remains undeniable.
location is perfect, restaurants just below the hotel, there’s a coop and shopping mall nearby within 5mins walk too. Montreux train station is just behind one street of the hotel. Strongly recommended to choose a room with balcony as the lake is just opposite the hotel and facing the room. great value of money.
The room was well stocked with toiletries and the double bed was nice and spacious. We had a lovely, large window which provided a view over Montreux. The wall images were a bit weird but Tralala is generally a quirky hotel. The bar/resto is open until 23h and the staff was helpful and kind.
The staff was extremely friendly and responsive to our requests. We've stayed in the hotel many times over the last few years, and the staff has definitely improved. The hotel's location is perfect-right on the lake, but away from the main busy road, and the rail line.
Well I arrived to find the hotel was closed. However the owners also owned the Plaza Palace opposite and we were upgraded. So we got a 5 star hotel at 2 star rates. This was amazing but my comments about the Palace Plaza Montreux being all top marks is correct. Amazing
A front desk representatives are very professional. The location is excellent (near train station). Every room has a breathtaking view of the lake and mountains. Our room was small but enough space to have a good rest after days full of activities. We love Montreux!
My room was lake view and it was incredible. We stayed 1 night but it was hard to leave there. The room was very clean, the breakfast was nice, and the hotel provide us Montreux city card which is covering public transport and providing discounts for some museums.
Hotel du Lac was our base as we came and went from Montreux, staying a total of 5 nights. Tomas was always available to provide for our needs, answer questions and park our bikes. A bonus -There is a washing machine and dryer available to use.
This hotel was amazing, setting ans views out of this world. Our room had a balcony and it looked out onto the lake. Had a swim in the lake. Walked into montreux by the lake. Room was very spacious. Food was really good. Breakfast first class.
Beautiful hotel with amazing location , view & very central for Montreux. Room was perfect with fine view. Staffs were kind and professional. There was nice places to walk around following the coast of lake. was so hospitable and welcoming.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Montreux
The hotel is ideally located for a swim in the lake or a walk to the center of Montreux or Chateau de Chillon. The facilities are a bit run down but value for money is good.
