Our room was not only spacious but also had a truly incredible view of Lausanne and Lake Geneva! The staff was very helpful. Breakfaast was plentiful and varied--but be sure to get there by 9:30--the staff clears the offerings by 10:00 a.m. The hotel is a half block from the subway and very convenient for most tourist destinations.

The restaurant at the property served very good steak. The property is basically a part of the hospital next door and you will see some patients who stay for the hospital cares in the breakfast venue. It felt strange when we realised that fact, but actually not a problem at all for the quality and price you get. And we saw a few new-born babies, which is a blessing.

From Lausanne Gare, there is a very steep walk to hotel, I would not recommend walking if you are traveling with luggages and kids. Very nice breakfast with assorted bread, oats, flakes, fruits, coffee, pastry, milk, juice, meats, nuts and warm potatoes. From hotel room you can see the beautiful lake, cathedral structures down below. Water filling station outside rooms. Overall nice place to stay.

Very spacious rooms and very clean. For a family of four it was great! It is a hotel for patients staying in the nearby hospitals, however it worked very well for us. Train and metro transportation very close by and convenient.

Like the idea but not for us.

The concept is a nice idea but not for us.. Wasn’t aware this hotel was a hotel for hospital patients. There is no tea / coffee making facility in the room, in fact the room although very clean is literally a bed, one pillow each, and very basic. Although calling itself a hotel it is more like a hospital room. The ‘restaurant’ is more a canteen, and although the food is good there are hospital patients with cannulas, bandages and new borns wondering around. I do like the idea this ‘hotel’ is trying to do but if classing themselves as a hotel they need to add that hotel feel not a hospital. If you are travelling for pleasure (couple break away for us) perhaps not for you, if you want a quick stop to get your head down then it would do.
