Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed every minute. Within a few minutes walk of the main railway station (up a hill), The Hotel Mirabeau is a typical Swiss building, full of character, and is beautiful and elegant inside. We qualified for a room upgrade and had a balcony with a table and chairs and a lake view. The room was spotlessly clean and well equipped, including a tea tray, mini bar and a safe large enough to take a laptop. Plenty of storage space. A large, comfortable bed with white bed linen and 2 separate duvets (I love that idea - no tugging at the duvet in the middle of the night ...!!!). The bathroom wasn't huge but more than adequate and spotlessly clean with fluffy white towels. Plenty of toiletries provided and replenished each day. Breakfast is served in the restaurant and the white linen table cloths and napkins make it an elegant occasion and a lovely way to start the day. There is a range of hot and cold dishes with typical continental breakfast choices and was very enjoyable. A free Lausanne travel pass issued by the hotel gave us access to trains, buses and the Metro in the Lausanne region for the duration of our stay. By train you can travel as far as Cully down the lake and it's well the worth the trip (about 20 mins with regular trains) for the wonderful views of the lake and the Lavaux vineyards. A must see. Will definitely stay here again in the future and highly recommend.

Nice 1920s decorated hotel which looks classy rather than tired. 10mins from the main train station so ideal for Lausanne.
As Lausanne is on two levels Lake Geneva below and the old town on a higher level this is in the middle so best of both worlds.
Staff were all very friendly and breakfast was well stocked with hot and cold offerings. If you wanted more cooked breakfast than was offered there was a separate menu you could order from and pay more. Didn’t use the restaurant for an evening meal so can’t comment on them.
Room was adequate size as you only sleep there but well stocked with items such as coffee (instant not machine), safe, good TV and plenty of clothes storage etc. Bathroom is fine but I don’t like showers in a bath which are on the side wall rather than the end wall. It can be very claustrophobic and you are literally stuck to the shower curtain during your shower. Shower height was also too low and I’m not tall.
Check in/out was pleasant and staff were very helpful throughout our stay.

Just smooth check in, beautiful room with a view of the street in front. Nice breakfast and humble people at service. We could check in 3 hours before the scheduled time as they preferred giving us the room since my 6 years old daughter was tired and asleep.
I strongly suggest this property

We were so very fortunate to stay in suite 501. It was gorgeous: bright and spacious with a spectacular view of Lake Geneva. We woke up each of five mornings feeling so grateful to the hotel for assigning this room to us. Also, I needed to have a business meeting on the last night, and the sitting area was perfect for my guests. All live in Lausanne, so I'm sure they'll remember this hotel when making future lodging plans for visitors.

We spent 3 nights at the Hotel Mirabeau in April 2022. The hotel is immaculate, rooms, hallways, restaurant - everywhere.
Hotel is very centrally located, and with the Lausanne transportation pass you can take the metro up or down the hills, or to the villages along the lake for free during your stay.
The breakfast buffet was very good, large selection of hot and cold items. The chocolate croissants were a particular favorite.
We booked 2 rooms, one a regular room and the 2nd a balcony room. The hotel upgraded the regular room so we were next door to each other. The balcony room was lovely - a balcony with table and 2 chairs, a sofa, chair, desk, coffee table and fridge in addition to our king size bed. I'd recommend springing for the balcony room. Bed was very soft but comfortable. There was plenty of room for 4 adults to sit around and visit.
We would definitely stay here again.

If you want to do a short Family trip to Lausanne this hotel will be the perfect place to stay. It is close to the railway station for those that prefer to come by train but it also has sufficient parking lots for those coming by car, but i would recommend to reserve the parking when booking. 25 CHF per day is an excellent price for this area. The Entry Hall and Reception of the Hotel are in classic design. The service at the Reception is amazing, very attentive and makes you feel special. The restaurant and bar are very good and the rooms are spacious- I can recommend the Family suite with and extra room for two kids. In a few minutes you can reach by foot the Cathedral, the City Center and many places to dine or just enjoy a drink. The public transport Ticket you get as part of the package allow you to leverage Bus and Metro and reach in Minutes the Lakeside and Olympic Museum.
My family and I can see not recommend this place.

We stayed in an upper floor room with a view of Lake Geneva. It was wonderful to open the windows and enjoy the view and the fresh air. This hotel is close to the train station and the metro which we used to go to Ouchy to walk along the promenade alongside the Lake and to visit the Olympic Museum.

Stayed at the Hotel Mirabeau last November and absolutely loved it! The staff was friendly and made our stay comfortable and personal. We do not speak any Swiss German or French but the staff spoke excellent English. They also gave us suggestions of things to see and do and how to take the train. Our room was amazing! We had the junior suite on the 2nd floor. It has vaulted ceilings, two balconies one of which was an extra large balcony with an alp and lake view, and it has the cutest boat/sailing décor. We included the awesome breakfast which had both American and European breakfast offerings. We also loved the bar and restaurant for dinner. The hotel is just a block from the train station and 15 minute walk to the Olympic Museum and Lake Geneva. Will certainly stay again and highly recommend it.

Change of plans had us in Lausanne and we are so glad we chose the Hotel Mirabeau. The room was sparkling clean, comfortable and had beautiful style. The view amazing for a storm over Lake Geneva and the staff was wonderful. They made the effort to accommodate a third day for us that we so appreciated. Breakfast was among the best we had on our whole trip and just made this stay that much better. Only a 15 minute walk to the new Platform 10 area to enjoy the varied museums. We highly recommend the Mirabeau!

We stayed in the lakeview suite which offered incredible views of Lake Geneva. There was a separate living room and bedroom, and a large bathroom with a second toilet. Lots of great amenities and the buffet breakfast is a must. A 5 minute walk from the train station and it's situated between the old town and Ouchy so the location couldn't be better.
