The views from our rooms were amazing. The hotel is older. The carpet felt dated and the area around the shower had some mold due to water leaking. One of the room had a slightly musky smell when we checked in.
The breakfast buffet is fair. The staff were friendly. Can take a 5-10 minute stroll at the back of the hotel by the lake with nice views.
The dinner at the restaurant was good. The pillows could be firmer and the towels more plush. The junior suite we booked were spacious. Overall a good stay.
The building was beautiful and the room was nice and big. The view looking out is absolutely gorgeous. The view also in the back is amazing. Unfortunately, their breakfast did not match The view. Also, we thought the breakfast was complimentary and even then I wouldn't have eaten it, but I didn't realize we were getting charged even for the breakfast for how bad it was. Also there is not AC in all the rooms. Keep that in mind if it's a hot day that you go. Also the water is leaking out on the shower onto the carpet. Without there being AC it could cause some mildew buildup if they don't get on top of it. Even with those things we really enjoyed or stay.

I like the clearness and set up of the facility. The room does not have air condition which makes room hot.
This was a personal experience as we needed a hotel with lift which the hotel had. On the day of arrival we were told that the lift is not working and staff didn't have ideas when it will be repaired. Also we given a single bad quality fan in two rooms suite. The staff could not provide any additional fan in three days. The bathroom had no privacy. In a nutshell the whole experience was horrible for us personally.
We enjoyed the lake view from our room on the 4th floor. It was a world class grand view.
The receptionist were very helpful for our tourist related questions.
During our stay the elevator was not working though. We were there 5 days and we had to walk those 5 floors every time. The hotel staff did help carry our luggage when we checked in and also when we checked out.
The hotel was beautiful with a great view of the lake from our room. Diner was very good and the front desk was helpful in giving us ideas for activities. The bed was very firm and uncomfortable for me but my husband didn’t mind. It was also a little stuffy in the room so we opened the windows to get some lovely cool fresh air in the morning and evening.
Beautiful hotel- historic and well maintained. Gorgeous back patio and restaurant overlooking the lake. Delicious meals. Staff were amazing. Room on street side is a bit loud w traffic.
Our room balcony overlooked lake Geneva and there is a swim platform out back so we had a glorious swim. Staff are very nice and accommodating. Restaurant and food were good. Nice Italian restaurant across the street. One complaint is since no AC you keep all windows and doors open and tons of small ants got in. A few aren’t a problem but they were everywhere. Bed, sink, table, floors. Aside from that this is an amazing hotel in a perfect location.
The front desk staff Tiara was extremely helpful. But, for all the 3 days we were there, there was no internet and it inconvenienced us a lot. The management should reimburse us back at least 20 percent of the tariff.
Beautiful location on the water and central in the town. Great service. There was a mixup with the rooms as we had 11 people travelling together, but the staff were easily able to make accommodations to adjust for us to make the best fit. Restaurant on site was great and the breakfast the following morning was superb.
We loved our room! The view was breathtaking! The breakfast was ok. This is a no alcohol hotel, though it has a bar, we did not know that - not advertised. When the main waiter found out we didn't speak German, he was quite rude, so we didn't do dinner there.
Beautiful room we had overlooking the Lake! Large room and large balcony. Nice bathroom. Clean room. Had a refrigerator and a sitting area in the room. 4 large windows and it overlooked the church which rang its bells. The balcony has a electric canopy that you can put out if it rains and had a little table/2 chairs. You can watch the boats go by. We walked to the castle close by. Was able to go to the town which had stores and restaurants (15 mins. from the place). Great buffet breakfast also. Everything closes early, so it you want to eat in the town, make sure you go early.
