Very close to the train station, very helpful and friendly staff, especially at reception. The room had air conditioning, a coffee machine and complimentary coffee and tea. WiFi is password-protected and stable. One tiny negative comment is that the towels were very old and slightly breaking apart. All in all a great choice and highly recommended for business travel. I would stay here again if I go back to Lausanne.
Major building works going on at front of hotel so get a room at the back.
Hotel had no bar or restaurant but still classed as a 4*.
Hotel staff excellent
Simple, no frills renovated room, with a peek view of the mountains and lake behind the station. Room was clean and super convenient location steps from the railway station and the rental car agency. Very friendly front desk staff.
Limited amenities but a very nice clean and well maintained room. Had a few questions in advance of my stay which staff answered promptly. Within a few hundred feet of the train station making it very convenient. Also lots of restaurants and shopping beginning just outside the front door.
It was a nice hotel right across from train station. So location was great if you’re traveling by train. Nice walk to the lake. Town was interesting to walk around and see all the old buildings.
Located right across from the train station, this hotel was quiet and well situated for anything Lausanne. The accommodations are simple but it gets the job done. The staff is quite helpful. We have stayed in several places here and this one works out just great.
Air conditioning, clean rooms, attentive and conscientious staff, easy access to the railroad and the Metro. What can you ask for

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Conveniently located across from the train station, this hotel was a bit frayed around the edges. Rooms were very small and spartan. The area around hotel a bit sketchy.
Staff is great, amenities are lacking. One would think smart tv’s would be everywhere, allow you to log in to watch tv. Old TV’s, poor channel selection, and ok mattress, not very comfortable.
No parking nearby, if you have several bags you will struggle getting them to the hotel. Currently construction in front and they have parking agreement with parking garage however it is one use per day. If you plan on going out, stay gone for the day, they will only allow one validation per day for 20CHF.
I didn't go for breakfast as I needed a very early start, but the hotel was very clean, very friendly and helpful staff and was in a good location for transport and the station
Such a well positioned hotel for everything ,
Staff were so pleasant and helpful ,
Room was a decent size ,
Breakfast very good ,
Local transport on your doorstep,
All in all I would definitely recommend it
