Expert reviews:

Fodor's

"This Edwardian landmark, distinctly urbane in setting and style, stands on a hill high over the lake, with layers of city scenery draped behind." Full review

Condé Nast Traveler

"Rooms have black-marble bathrooms and comfortable armchairs; some come with terraces with "gorgeous views of the Alps."" Full review

Travel + Leisure

"An institution for high rollers since 1915, with a happening British colonial–style bar. Room to Book: Ask for a junior room overlooking Lake Geneva. Doubles From $530." Full review

The Telegraph

9.0

"This place has had more than a century to refine its luxury hospitality, and it’s nailed it." Full review

Time Out

"One of Lausanne’s most luxurious hotels, it features four restaurants, an exclusive spa and beauty centre and a cocktail bar...stunning views from its terrace over Lake Geneva and the Alps." Full review

It’s well worth stopping by during the run-up to Christmas to witness the hotel’s completely extravagant external decorations which light up the facade like a particularly sparkly Christmas present, complete with big red bow.
