This hotel was fantastic. Set on a hill overlooking lake Geneva gives fantastic views of the lake and is especially nice at night. The gentleman that welcomed us was very nice and very helpful with our travel plans the next day. I highly recommend staying here.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Sadly this hotel is disappointing in so many ways. The staff were very pleasant and helpful but through no fault of theirs, the hotel is very poorly kept, is incredibly outdated and requires more investment in time, money and management. The bathrooms were very poorly kept especially, gardens not maintained and massive bins welcome you at the entrance. Pillows are poor quality, lots of basic maintenance and lacking in characters, atmosphere and care. Please do not be attracted by the views - which are great - but the quality of the hotel is low and I would avoid, despite the views as you will be disappointed.

The bedrooms are aged and in need of refurbishment. The location and views are lovely and dining hall clean but for the cost of the room I would have expected better quality. The pillow was non existent. We arrived late and reception closes at 11pm and no one appears to be available after this time to allow check in or on site to deal with any issues should they arise.

Nice location. Parking handy and a kettle in the room. Good views of the lake from the terrace. However, no bar or restaurant open in the evening, so had to walk into town. It’s very hilly which may affect some.
