Ανακαλύψτε τη διαμονή σας σε Montreux

The hotel is located near the train station, facing Lake Geneva, there are many shopping malls and restaurants on the main road, and it will be noisy at night. The room is not big, the floor is crunching, it should be some age, staying for one or two nights is still possible, because the traffic is convenient, and the fat female receptionist at the front desk is very warm and interesting.

The location of The Freddie Mercury Hotel worked well for us. Despite being nearly attached to the Montreux train station, it was set back from the main road and on a quiet street in the centre. Very easy to walk everywhere in Montreux from the hotel. There is underground car parking (EUR25/night and best to request when reserving a room), but the entrance is a bit tight into the car elevator and large cars / vans would have difficulty maneuvering even in the parking garage. The quad room on the 4th floor was very spacious! A large king sized bed, plus two twins, plus a sitting area with two chairs and a small sofa. All felt very clean and like a modern “boutique” style hotel, though the shower room felt slightly too small for 4 people. (The toilet was in a separate room.) We were told there was “no AC but all the rooms are ventilated”, but it stayed cool enough with the metal electronic metal blinds down during the day so we didn’t need the AC. There’s also a desk area along the window…over looking the train tracks. Even number rooms faces the train track and odd number rooms face the lake. The hotel is a new training facility for the nearby hospitality traininig school. Hence, the more reasonable prices in an area where hotel stays can be quite pricey. Despite the “Freddie Mercury” name, it’s really more just some photo history of Freddie on the walls and not much else. Still, the hotel offers a very good value in terms of its quality and main services. Breakfast (EUR18 per adult, EUR9 per child) each morning was served until 10am. Buffet style, nothing fancy, but there was always a good selection of cold meats, cheeses, salads, cereals, yogurt, breads, croissants and whole fresh fruit. Along with hot options of eggs and hashbrowns, plus coffees, juices, and a water refill pump. We had the pleasure of meetimg Mr Zampetti, the hotel manager, and Swift, the front desk manager. Both were very professional and pleasant in sorting out an issue with one of our rooms. We loved the Montreux experience and would definitely stay at the Freddie Mercury hotel the next time we visit…for its quiet yet convenient location, its value for money, and for the courtesy of its staff.

Myself my husband and our young son have just arrived home from 5 wonderful nights in this lovely quirky little hotel. This hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. Not only is the hotel in a lovely quiet little village like area with spectacular views over the lake the staff are FANTASTIC! We had a number of activities cancel on us and both Paulo and MJ (Marie Julie) were on hand with fantastic suggestions so that we were not disappointed! Breakfast in the morning was spot on and Paulo was always happy and jolly and would make our coffee to perfection. And in the evenings MJ was always a delight to have a talk to while we had a glass of the beautiful local wine. Nothing was too much for them :) they are a real asset to this hotel. There was another guy but we only had the pleasure of meeting him once and again he was so friendly. We have stayed in a number of hotels in a number of locations varying from basic to 5* and I can honestly say this hotel was warm, welcoming and comfortable. We will definitely return. Thank you so much for an extremely enjoyable stay !! From the Corroll Family :) PS we would love to know the name of the local white wine …. It was fantastic.

A fantastic experience from Checkin to Checkout ! Great support at Checkin from Padmila from Mexico & Francois from Switzerland, with both information on the local area and help with our luggage. They could not have done more to support our stay from supplying a Montreux Riviera Card for free transport locally and discounts on attractions to a couple of Euro to Swiss mains adaptors for the room. The room itself was at the top of the hotel and accessible via stairs for part of the way, but the views of the mountains and the lake were superb. Breakfast was of a continental style, but reasonably priced for a Swiss hotel. We also enjoyed eating on one of the nights in the adjoining restaurant which offers good Italian food including some nice dishes such as Arancini for starters and Spaghetti all Vongole (Clams) for a main course. The cocktails were also great here ! Most of Montreux is walkable, although the trolley buses were easy to navigate and included in the card supplied. Would we go back to this hotel if visiting Montreux again, 100% yes we would !

This Hotel is a sort of superior Backpacker hostel with a very good restaurant. Half the rooms have a shared bathroom, half have own bathroom. Our (own bathroom) room was a bit shabby, not renovated. The outstanding feature is the location in small hamlet of chalets 1000m above Montreux with fabulous views onto lake Geneva from the extensive outside terrace. It was very quiet at night (in Autumn) The restaurant is excellent with a cosy chalet ambience and well attended though offers only a restricted menu (mainly fondues). The staff are all young and friendly. Access best by cogwheel train from Montreux which stops outside and a must do is to travel further up by train to Rochers-de Naye at 2000m with breathtaking panoramic views. Visitors are given a free travel card for duration of visit).

This hotel is not worth ONE star! The so called ”breakfast” is cheap food in old buffets and a dark, dirty room. THREE old PIECES of cheese and formed ham, as cheap as animal food, is NOT a breakfast, that is simply FRAUD! NEVER TAKE THIS AS A HOTEL!!! It is a kennel on street level. Without blends in front of the window, with damaged bath-insides and damaged furniture insed. It is a CHIZ to every custumor expecting THREE stars! We had THREE little dogs with us, and they charged 45 CHF for ONE room to clean, which was NOT clean before! (I got enough pics of that situation!) We were charged with 248 CHF for a dirty, hot, MOULDY room, CHEAP bread in the morning, a DIRTY and DUSTY dining facility and an extremely unfriendly ”manager”. NEVER again! Deutsch: Dieses Hotel ist KEINEN Stern wert! Das sog. ”Frühstück” bestand aus BILLIGEM Brot, spärlichem Massen-Aufschnitt, INDUSTRIEGEKOCHTEN EINGEFÄRBTEN Eiern, und ALTEN AUFGEBACKENEN GEBÄCKSTÜCKEN. Jede Jugendherberge ist sauberer und macht ein Bufett, wie angekündigt. Das war KEINE 2 CHF wert! (Fotos vorhanden!!). Das Geschirr, wie die Vorlege-Utensilien waren alt und kaputt, der sog. Speisesaal staubig und muffig, das Brot vom BILLIGSTEN WAS MAN SICH VORSTELLEN KANN! Wir haben für 3 Hunde für eine ANGEBLICHE Reinigung von EINEM Zimmer 45 CHF bezahlt!!! Für DREI Stücke ALTEN KÄSE, FABRIKWURST, BILLIGTOAST, aufgewärmte, zusammengesammelte Backstücke und eine UNTERIRDISCHE Atmosphäre dort 52 CHF!!! Für das Zimmer mit VERSCHIMMELTEM BAD, SCHRANK, ohne richtige Beleuchtung sowie KEINE Gardinen- EBENERDIG ZUR STRASSE!!! 160 CHF!!! DAS IST EINE DER MIESESTEN ABZOCKEN UND ABSTEIGEN, DIE ICH JE ERLEBTE!!!!!

Nice place to stay! Everybody at the hotel was very kind. Rooms very clean and tidy, with everything you need during your stay. Breakfast was simple but with everything you expect to find in any hotel (delicious croissants) Don’t forget to ask for your free bus ticket during your stay!

GOOOD VIEW AND ROOM! GREAT POOL. THE HAMMAM WASN'T WORKING. One staff member in the breakfast kitchen unfortunately disrupted the serene atmosphere the hotel worked hard to create. While calm music played and the ambiance was designed to be relaxing, this one woman was exceptionally loud, repeatedly yelling in Portuguese without regard for the guests' experience. Unlike the other attentive and courteous staff, she didn’t greet guests and instead engaged in nonstop, loud chatter from the kitchen. It’s a real shame that her behavior diminished the team’s otherwise excellent efforts to create a peaceful dining experience.
