Very accessible. Also has central air conditioning, which became very important during the heat wave we suffered while visiting the Jazz Festival. Very friendly and accommodating desk staff. Wonderful management, as I could tell she runs a very tight ship. Also, it was great to be able to walk out of the front door of the hotel and go directly to the main platform of the train station, which was ultra convenient and that I was not fully aware of until I caught a train to Zurich. I'll be at the Jazz Festival next year, and I will come to this hotel again.

Great location, really close to the train station and the promenade. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Good breakfast at the hotel, which made getting on with our day nice and easy. The only slight negative was that we were there during a heatwave, and the central air conditioning system didn’t seem to cope very well - we ended up moving rooms and still needing a fan to try and keep the heat down. But other than that, we had a fabulous time in Montreux would definitely stay here again!

The room was utilitarian--and fine--but the standout was the breakfast. It ended up being the finest breakfast we had across 6 hotels in Switzerland, Italy and Monaco. Location was also perfect, just up the hill from the train station and the waterfront.
