Reviews for Tralala Hotel Montreux
Review 1:We had a wonderful stay at the hotel tralala. We were welcomed with a glass of wine and had wonderful large rooms. Excellent stay, would absolutely stay again.
Review 2:Not very impressing breakfast, although quite expensive. Cigaret smoke (possibly form neighbours) entered the room.
Review 3:Welcome drink, free bus, very friendly staff. Cool rooms.
Review 4:Nothing!
Review 5:Very nice and helpful staff. Lovely decor! Modern rooms with good shower. Easy to reach with little train to Les Planches or 10 minute walk into town.
Review 6:great atmosphere, lovely hotel with new furnishings and people with a big smile on their face happy to serve the customer (not very common in Switzerland...). and all this for a fair price (again not very common in Switzerland). overall - brilliant!
Review 7:The only thing you need to know ahead of time is that you need to take a taxi or be ready to take your luggage up the hill. It's a great walk if you don't mind it, and very scenic.
Review 8:Staff is very friendly, breakfast is outstanding. Room was spotless. TV and internet worked well. Very quiet at night.
Review 9:Hotel location is up a fairly steep hill in the old town. Difficult walk with luggage. Ultra modern furnishings in old hotel sometimes just do not fit well.
Review 10:The shower curtain looks very dirty and the toilet smell is not good.
Review 11:I had a very please and comfortable stay at this hotel for 6 nights. I live at room 308 and I think I got the best view of the hotel room, had three windows at the room, one of it can see the lake view, really very nice. Room space is big enough and I think my room is slightly bigger than other rooms. and the room is very clean and quiet at night.
Review 12:I checked in pretty late, after 9pm. The lights in my room did not work, except for 2 night stands lamps, so it was pretty dark, but it was too late to get somebody to fix the lights, i think the receptionist already left.
Review 13:Convenient location:10 min walk from the train station, 5 min walk from the lake. There is no tea or coffee machine in the room, but they were very accomodating and gave me an electric kettle
Review 14:Room was too dark, shower curtain annoying, cleaner left me 1 dirty bath towel and I didn't realise til after the shower.
Review 15:Friendly staff, comfy bed and pillows, cute little balcony, opposite a bus into town and Les Planches station.
Review 16:10 minutes walking uphill from the train station.
Review 17:Quite and cozy hotel. Comfortable beds. Friendly front of the house staff. Fresh and delicious breakfast.
Review 18:No welcome drink as suggested in previous comments. Broken window(could not lock it) when checked in, and I asked the reception to change a room for me, but she was very reluctant to do so, and questioned me if it was only the broken window that I wanted to change the room. Not so much styling as described. Very normal decoration, no lake view, indifferent staff, have to climb halfway up to the mountain, not so convenient to move around.
Review 19:the reception staff during the daytime is so much nicer than the one when I checked in(the younger one)
Review 20:Box spring on one bed was making noisy creaking noise. Kept us awake. Had to disassemble bed and put mattress on floor and one of us sleep on that floor mattress.
Review 21:Lovely location. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice lobby. Good breakfast. Great jazz artist photos throughout.
Review 22:The hotel is on a hill and far from the main tourist area.This is a big issue if walking with luggage There are no buses in the evening therefore you have to either take a costly taxi or walk uphill. For the money being charged I think you can take a hotel nearer the main area. I personally didn't like the size of the rooms. They are quite small.
Review 23:The owner of the hotel is a very pleasant woman and she did her best to make us comfortable. On request she changed our room from a very small room to a bigger room with a balcony.
Review 24:- Central location => non-convenient parking - I was at small 15 meters room, which is OK for solo traveler but will be limiting for couples. There was curtain instead of cabinet. - Modest breakfast
Review 25:- Superb location. Walking distance to the old city, bars, promenade, train station - Old authentic building, but fully renovated and look modern inside. - Good service. Welcome drink. - Music theme of overall design is good and pleasant. - Good bed.
Review 26:Staff wqs very helpful and room was clean and decent. Wifi excellent all round! We had breakfast at the tea room 100m along the road so weren't able to judge the breakfast.
Review 27:The breakfast buffet was a bit poor. You have everything you need but it wasn't the freshest, i thought. For instance, i feel like they had some cheap orange juice, you know, small things.
Review 28:The beds were really comfortable and everything was clean. The staff was a bit overwhelmed by english speaking but didn't lose their cool. All in all very uncomplicated and good location.
Review 29:Compared to how I remembered the hotel from two years ago I found it could use a renovation very soon. There was a strong bathroom (pipes) smell right from the entrence. The room was nothing special, just a bed, no fridge, no wardrobe. This is OK in a larger room but the one we had this time was very small so we could see all the imperfections.bathroom has an old courtain shower and to my standard should shine of cleanless- it currently doesn't. Shower gel and soap are to be used by all guests the same (in a recipient on the wall) which to my opinion is not hygienic at least in the shower. Overall this is a very nice hotel with a special design I really hope the owner will take better care of it and renovate all the rooms. For the "swiss" price we pay we expect Swiss standards.
Review 30:We stayed here the second time and this time were given a small room on the 4th floor. The bed is very comfortable, the view of the Alps in the morning amazing. Stuff is nice and willing to help.
Review 31:nothing major to write about!
Review 32:the lady receptionist who welcomed us warmly, explained the bus routes and tourist spots! and also gave us all the city passes and coupons!
Review 33:The directions on the website to get to the hotel from the train station need a little more detail.It is probably more than 500meters and it doesn't mention you need to climb a very steep hill to get there if you are walking.
Review 34:Tra la la is a great little hotel, friendly staff, clean, comfortable, quiet with a delicious breakfast if you desire.
Review 35:Poor connectivity no bus or train station nearby no refrigerator and cupboard in the rooms.
Review 36:Best place to stay at specially for students or employees who are searching for an apartment or still waiting for the accomodation warm rooms best for young couples
Review 37:there is no parking , need to look on the street and to change the parcomètre on sertain time to avoid penalty from municipality
Review 38:clean and calm hotel , friendly staff
Review 39:Cleaners are very noisy. Got woken up every morning by banging noise. A loud party within the hotel on my last night disturbed my sleep. Was planning on staying the weekend but moved hotels. Too far away from main centre.
Review 40:Welcoming staff. Good wifi connection.
Review 41:Room a little on the small side for two, but not a big deal, and for the price, no real complaint!
Review 42:Although there was an event on in the public area when we arrived, the receptionist couldn't have been more welcoming, not least with a free welcome glass of wine! Parking is difficult at the hotel, but a free valet service solved that problem and we found the car easily - a 10 minute walk away - the next day! The hotel is funky, with great design and a very quirky, modern feel. Our bedroom was a little on the small side, but otherwise very clean, simple and stylish and the shower-room was great. Breakfast was superb - plentiful, fresh with a wide range of choices. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The night we stayed, there was a street fair till midnight, with live music, and food and drink stalls, all of which added to the party ambience of the whole experience. The hotel itself is situated in the old town area of Montreux and is only a 10-15 minute walk downhill to the lake, central station and shops. I would have no hesitation in staying there again and, indeed, already intend to go back with my wife!
Review 43:Helpful staff.good location on the hill side of the old city. Near a nice little neighborhood bakery. musical theme in the spirit of the Montreux Jazz Festival.
Review 44:Given the price, I was unpleasantly surprised that it did not include breakfast.
Review 45:Location in old Montreux. Stylish and atmospheric decor. Beautiful room with fantastic views.
Review 46:Long-term parking is NOT available.
Review 47:Great breakfast, great service, great rooms, centrally located, you can take the buses from near the hotel to anywhere in the city.
Review 48:The room gets noisy in the day. The noise from the cars reflect right off the walls into the room, windows should be more noise cancelling. Room gets stuffy, no air con.

Review 107:It is a long, steep walk from the main drag to the hotel. Last bus was at 8pm so compelled to walk back after dinner. The description is totally misleading. The so-called 'lake view' junior suites we booked were not what we expected. I am a regular visitor to Montreux and if you book a lake view, you get a lake facing room with a clear vista of the lake. These rooms had a tiny view of the lake out of a side window - definitely no beautiful lake vista! The bathrooms were very spacious, but no separate shower which they could easily accommodate. As I like fresh air and always sleep with a window open, the early morning traffic was very noisy. Breakfast was very basic - nothing special. When checking out there was nobody at reception to attend to us - we were in a hurry to catch trains, buses and planes. I had to ask somebody in the kitchen where the receptionist was - turns out she was smoking outside.
Review 108:Rooms were nicely decorated and spacious.
Review 109:The photographs do not reflect the reality. Most important issue is that the hotel administration should mentioned the location. İt is at the top of a hill which you have have a hard time in walking. İ will never prefer this hotel again
Review 110:1. the design of the curtain is a little peculiar, it's not attached on the window frame and you cannot use the table if the curtain is closed. 2. the washbasin is too small 3. a little bit noisy when someone outside slam the door.
Review 111:1. the room is well styled and really clean 2. the wifi connection is decent 3. staffs are helpful and nice 4. you can have a welcome beverage when you arrive and check -in 5. they got two comfy eyeball chairs !!! 6. it's located in a the old town, real calm place.
Review 112:we were very happy there, but there is still potential to improve :-) - no tea and coffee cooking facilities yet - tv screen is not very conveniently located. you cannot see the screen while sitting on the comfy chairs and in the bed you can see the screen, but you cannot sit comfortably as the beds do not touch a wall. - there is a fire place but unfortunately you are not allowed to make a fire
Review 113:great location. welcome drink. very friendly and helpful staff (spoke french, german, english). nice and spacious room (junior suite).
Review 114:A bit far from the train station (uphill walking difficult with big luggage), the extra bed for the room is not comfortable
Review 115:Interesting designed themes in the rooms, good internet, good balcony view, friendly and helpful staff + service
Review 116:Poor wifi in the room. Windows need to be more sound proof, as with traffic outside it gets really loud More variety for breakfast
Review 117:Great staff, great location, swanky rooms
Review 118:I reserved via booking.com, when I arrived at around 21:30 after commuting all day, I found a 500 people disco party in a lobby that is designed to 50. it took me 5 minutes to get to the counter with my language. The reception was busy selling beer to the guests, I could hardly communicate with the staff. The noise was unbearable. The staff informed me that the party will go on untill 24:00 and shown no understanding to my situation. I needed a rest after a long day of traveling... I felt miss treated. There is obviously something wrong with their service concept...
Review 119:Nothing to dislike.
Review 120:In character area of old town on the hill. Music themed - large colour photo of BB King on bedroom wall. Funky decor (red, black, white.)
Review 121:The old woman running the hotel. Impolite without manners and without sense how to run a hotel. The hotel has no wifi or you can get it if you are lucky staying on the first floor. The breakfast is a joke its like you are a worker going to the mountains and you get a piece of bread ham and cheese thats it. Coffee is watered down to cut expenses on site bar non existent just part of the reception. The hotel is situated up the hill 1 km from train station if you wanna walk there.... good luck unless you are prof3ssional athlete.half rooms have ashtrays half not and whne you amoke they lecture. Sign of non smoking? NOWHERE. Would i stay there again? NO. Its a pity as montreux is beautiful with great people,great schools and great atmosphere. Although this hotel should go back in a learning mod3 and maybe in 4 to 5 years could have go again out in the market to attract clients with slightly improves public relation skills. I forgot to mwntion that they offered me free breakfast and city tax included at the end if i was extending my stay. Guess what at the end i got charged.finally when i asked her for an invoice for business purposes i felt that i asked her for the world.that was a good lesson to choose next time a real hotel to stay.
Review 122:The polite girl who was working when i checked in.
Review 123:Can be challenging to get to if you're not familiar with the area around. Wifi in my room was very poor.
Review 124:Good hotel, clean and modern. I got a room with a nice small balcony. Comfy and perfect for solo travellers.
Review 125:Very small room; we hardly had space to open our suitcase. The roomsize wasn't too much of a problem for us as we were out most ofthe time but would be too small to enjoy some down time. Walls werethin. Friday night was very loud and we could clearly hear the otherguests on our floor talking and engaging in other activities whilst wewere in our room.
Review 126:Nice hotel which is reasonably priced for Montreux. Staff were friendly.Room was fine for 2 adults for 2 nights. Complimentary welcome drink onarrival was nice. Like other reviewers suggest, take the bus 206 fromthe train station if you have luggage as very steep hill. Hotel providea free bus pass to use during your stay.
Review 127:None
Review 128:It is in the beautifull Old Town area high up in the mountain. Friendly staff, characteristic charm, beatifull view from our room. Clean and sufficient rooms.
Review 129:Very original hotel. Perfect for music fans. We got rooms with David Bowie (my daughter is a fan and loved it) and Deep Purple. The staff was also very kind.
