Perfect location for us, fairly quiet in the back. The staff. The beds. The transportation card. The little coffee shop. The mini refrigerator.

I loved the bed and the location of the hotel a lot

We were traveling by train to Lausanne and this hotel is directly across from the station. An easy walk to the waterfront.

location is just a few step from train station , bus terminal, metro, rental car and restaurant. the room is good and comfortable.

Great location, confortable and friendly staff especially Antonio (Reception).

Ideal central location next to the train station. Fabulous, courteous staff. Great beds and sheets. Modern bathrooms. Free gym and local public transport access.

I've learned that when people say "right across the street from the station" they don't always mean it. But this hotel TRULY WAS RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET and it was incredibly well-located, not only easy from the station but a really lovely walk into the old city and practically everywhere. The room was nice, staff incredibly friendly, and in every way it was a terrific place for a very quick stop in a lovely city.

The place is directly is 2 minute from the train station and the metro station. Lausanne have lots of steep roads but because of the location carrying luggage was easy.

The hotel is situated next to railway station, and the connection to Geneva airport was smooth. My room was comfy and quiet, not too small, on the garden side of the hotel. Wifi worked well. Connection to UNIL was fast and easy. It was easy to visit the city center from here.

Helpful reception staff, well-equipped room, clean, excellent location, very comfortable bed and pillows.
