We loved the welcome we received, we arrived prior to check in and the lady on reception was very helpful - we could leave our luggage and bags, had a refresh and drinks before getting our free riviera card. We made the most of a sunny day and hopped on a bus outside and visited château chillon - highly recommend with the discounted Rivera passes. We got off the bus a few stops before and visited the play parks for our little one , enjoying the lovely lake views. The shops and eateries are all within walking distance, bikes are free to use prebooked. A spa is also available, sadly we did not have the spare time to make use of this and had an early checkout missing breakfast. Our room was great, the beds comfy and sofa bed made up for our little one - with a free minibar 😊 Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.
Opened in 1896, the Belle-Epoque Hotel Eden Palace au Lac enjoys a lakefront position just a 5-minute walk from Montreux Train Station.

We loved our stay there, the staff were extremely friendly and we communicated everything just well in english. The hotel is pretty old but still in good shape so that didn’t bother us. The room was clean and comfortable. If you are worried about the parking situation in the city keep in mind that you can always park in front of the hotel behind the white lines. You can ask the staff at the reception for a blue clock to put in your windshield, you can stay parked there for 3 hours but you can always change the clock and still remain parked there. If you decide to be away for the whole day ask the staff for a whole day parking ticket which will allow you to leave your car there without changing the blue block, it was only 10 CHF for a day.
You got free pool access and an amazing view no matter which room you stay in. You can also always get the breakfast in the morning which had a very big variety like gluten free, vegetarian..
One tip I would give you is if you need more neck support maybe take a tiny pillow from home but that’s about it. Overall it was a very pleasant experience.
The music-themed Tralala Hotel Montreux is located right in the Old Town of Montreux, 500 metres from the lake and the Montreux train station. WiFi internet is available free of charge.

Surrounded by Lake Geneva and glorious Alpine peaks, tranquil Montreux has enchanted artistes through the ages. Lord Byron was so inspired by the style and setting of waterfront Château de Chillon that he wrote a poem about it. Nowadays it is one of Switzerland’s most popular attractions.
Freddie Mercury also fell in love with Montreux and a lakefront statue in Place du Marché commemorates this former resident in typical pose, with one arm raised to the heavens. Queen fans flock here for the annual Memorial Day, just one musical festival hosted by this town. The most famous is the 2-week Montreux Jazz Festival, held in the Music & Convention Centre.
On the opposite side of town is Audiorama (the Swiss National Audiovisual Museum), near a funicular railway which climbs the hill. Further up the slopes is the family-friendly Rochers-de-Naye ski area, while the Les Pléiades pistes overlook neighbouring Vevey. Down at the quayside wooden chalets house stalls of the annual Christmas market.
Summer activities include boat trips, hiking and the Montreux-Oberland-Bernois narrow gauge railway whose trains allow you to really savour the views…and a nice cup of coffee.
The train station also connects to Geneva, site of the nearest airport, and Booking.com offers luxury hotels, apartments with views and cheap B&Bs nearby.

This town is adorable.
This town is adorable. It was a spontaneous visit while we were in Switzerland for another purpose. But the Old Town was amazing, as was the lake and Chateau Chillón. Our only regret is not making it to the Freddie Mercury statue before we left.

People with money create a unique atmosphere in the city: for example, until 2 o'clock in the morning you can't close your eyes - convertibles with a price of 100K are driving through the streets with music so loud that no soundproofing helps. I will not say that I would like to live there. But sometimes such a vibe can even be liked.

We were impressed with the lakeside esplanade which seemed popular with everyone, tourists and locals alike. We enjoyed the iconic statue of Freddie Mercury and really appreciated the Queen Experience within the casino, free at point of entry and really well assembled…lots of interest…we had the best part of two hours there! We ate crepes and had coffee at the Eden Palace hotel…a light bite after the enormous breakfast we’d been served at the Victoria Glion. We appreciated the gardens along the front, well kept and with a large diversity of ‘Mediterranean’ plants and trees. We might suggest that the authorities consider putting plaques on the trees with their Latin names…we were curious as to several and what they were, but had no guide to help us here. This could presumably be done at limited cost and be wonderfully ‘educational’ to the masses!

Montreux is situated in an area surrounded by mountains which were snow capped when we were there and the lake views are beautiful. Chillon Castle and the Freddy Mercury Statue are worth a visit but make sure you allow enough time for the Castle visit as there is so much to see. Walking around Montreux is easy, there is a good bus service and the train station is right in town upper level. Plenty of good restaurants to eat at and they are open till late evening.

Stunning location.
Stunning location. Lots of walking paths along lakeside with ‘view seats’ scattered along the routes. Various methods of getting up the mountains (rack railways etc) and excellent buses running everywhere (free with a pass from my hotel). Boat trips around Lake Geneva with opportunities to disembark to look round other lakeside villages.

This is my third time staying at this hotel. It has the best view and best location if you visit Montreux. I was so lucky to get upgrade to a suite this time, I was greeted with a fantastic view with balcony, and some sweet gifts from the hotel. The hotel staff are always very friendly and helpful. And great buffet breakfast with a lake view...thats why I keep coming back !
Great boutique hotel, parking right near the door and a fairly quiet location! We had a fantastic view from our room, and whilst small it had everything we needed. Decor was fun and a great base for walking around Montreux. Staff were great and booked us in for dinner at the hotel which has been a highlight of our trip.
The hotel is so convenient and easy accessible to the train station. Breakfast was good with variety of food. Even though its beside the train station, the sound proof was pretty good. Would definitely be back again to this hotel when we are back to Montreux.
We were upgraded to the nearby Royal Plaza hotel on arrival.
They have a good Type2 EV charging station there including cables (located in the subterranean parking).
The hotel is located right at the lively Montreux seaside riviera pedestrian area.
Lovely hotel on the hill above Montreux centre. Tiny but functional room good enough for a couple days stay. Public transport right outside the hotel. Very kind staff
