This hotel is in an excellent location. I travel quite a bit and found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. The facilities are very clean. The rooms are quite nice with large showers and bathrooms. However, the beds could be more comfortable. I am not sure that the hotel would be a good choice for young families but... More

It's a gorgeous chateau right on lake full of old world charm with a swanky cool lobby and very clean and comfortable rooms. We got a deluxe room on top floor with lake view and huge bathroom. Service is great. We skipped breakfast, but opted for latte and croissant instead at very reasonable price. Metro is within the block. We... More

Nice small hotel, great room in the Donjon (junior suite) with many amenities. No water boiler though. Breakfast was just not good and did not compare to breakfasts we had in other Small Leading Hotels of the World. They need to offer much more style, quality and service there. Some of the staff are very friendly, others are not customer... More

Exceptional service and exceptional quality were what I expected from this hotel and it did not fail to deliver. The staff were wonderful, knowlegeable and helpful. The food was delicious and I loved the outside bar area sipping wine in the sunshine. I will be returning to this fantastic hotel.

Stayed at Chateau Ouchy while attending a course at IMD and the experience was very nice. Interior is recently renovated, room well appointed and location is perfect, actually on the lake shore and right next to running or walking tracks. Metro is right in front of the hotel. Stayed at a rooftop room (only downside is that lifts only went... More

It definitely lives up to the expectations of a beautiful Swiss Chateau. Old stone exterior shows the beauty and the heritage of this city by the lake. Once you walk in though, the place is amazing. Freshly renovated interior and beautiful views of the lake and the mountains can't be compared with anything. When you take in the price and... More

We have been to the Chateau d'ouchy already 3 times and it is diffently one of the greatest hotel in Lausanne - clearly smaller than the other palaces in town but with a nice friendly and family atmosphere. The big plus is that it is just impossible to get closer to the lake. Also, if you have a chance, stop... More
