Reviews for Grand Hotel du Lac
Review 1:The view from our room wasn't great.
Review 2:I booked this hotel for my girlfriends birthday and the treatment we received over the weekend from start to finish was exceptional. The food in the restaurant is great. The room was clean and warm. The bed was comfortable. Me and my partner really enjoyed our stay. We even had one of the treatments from the spa which was really good too. I can't recommend this place enough.
Review 3:Although the hotel was not full we were given a room overlooking the back streat an of course in the evening it was very noisy. I dont understand hotels who in low occupancy dont go the extra mile in providing a better room. Breakfast - very nice, not worth its price though.
Review 4:Great location next to the lake, very well thought of amenities, beautiful autumn decoration.
Review 5:Expensive breakfast, parking on hotel grounds.
Review 6:The standard bedroom and bath were comfortable and beautifully decorated. The bed was very comfortable, great pillows and linens. Convenient location, on the lake and short walk to the train station. Free overnight parking at nearby parking lot, but need to pay during the day with five-hour maximum.
Review 7:The price for breakfast is absurd. CHF 39 for continental and CHF 49 for the buffet. Hardly saw anyone eating breakfast. Even our Swiss friends did not take the breakfast.
Review 8:The excellent staff who were always happy to help and always had a smile on their face
Review 9:Stunning grand hotel with character and perfectly trained staff. Rooms were up there with the best I've stayed in and location on the banks of Lake Gevena was perfect. Will definitely come back again.
Review 10:The beautiful pillows were so soft. I feel guilty for complaining, but maybe a firmer alternative could be provided.
Review 11:A very warm welcome with a tour of the grounds. Staff were wonderful.
Review 12:In order to get to the hotel please ride the train from Geneva airport station to Vevey which is about one hour trip. The hotel welcoming message doesn't tell you this
Review 13:Excellent hotel for 2days relaxation and enjoy the lake seen
Review 14:Expensive parking. Entry to balcony was through bathroom, which was weird.
Review 15:Decorations and style. Lake view balcony. Convenient free bus service to Montreux.
Review 16:There wasn't an indoor pool maybe, but that is a very minor issue
Review 17:I like the smell when right away before you get welcomed by the nice and helpful staff. The view is gorgeous and the whole decor of the hotel is breathtaking
Review 18:There is no doorman (reception girls are taking your lagage and park your car) . The staff welcome you very hard in the beginning and they are very bad during checkout. One girl is doing all jobs. The reception take the room service order !!!!!
Review 19:It's expensive , but this is Switzerland so it's in line with other hotel of the same standard.
Review 20:Great hotel, excellent staff and location. Swiss hotel in the classic Swiss tradition built in 1868 but totally renovated and keeping it's charm.
Review 21:It is pricy, but worth it.
Review 22:Lovely place to stay. We have only stayed in a handful of Relais & Chateau but this was the nicest. Great staff. Excellent service. Beautiful location. And they go out of their way for kids - balloons in the room, gummy worms as a snack - my son loved it.
Review 23:This is a beautiful facility right on the lake. Everyone was so accommodating and my room couldn't have been lovelier. All the food service was outstanding.
Review 24:Although we knew the additional costs before we arrived we still found the cost of breakfast and parking to be excessive.
Review 25:Location of the hotel is good,quite and peaceful. Our room overlooking the lake was of a reasonable size and the bathroom was also good.The room had a large balcony with table and chairs.Bed and pillows very comfy.
Review 26:it impress us so much! absorlutely excellent to stay! really beautiful view, no matter inside or outside of the hotel. too many want to share with others...... never want to leave that hotel...
Review 27:Restaurant food quality and price not aligned.
Review 28:Attentiveness of staff and attention to detail. The morning we checked out of the hotel, there were 2 bottles of water left in the cup holders in the car. It was such a thoughtful way to wish us a safe trip to our next destination.
Review 29:Restaurant did not match quality of the hotel. Service was outstanding while quality of food was poor. It felt like dishes were designed by a creative chef but executed by amateurs.
Review 30:Hotel was stunning, presentation, flowers, friendly and very helpful staff.
Review 31:I always stay in this hotel when I am around the area. The room size is nice with beautiful lake and mountain view. It was nicely decorated. I love their flower arrangement. You can also walk on lake shore in front of the hotel. The hotel size is not too big.
Review 32:No many choices of breakfast. High prices.
Review 33:I loved the great view of the lake and how clean and quiet the place is. The house keeping is great. The staff are very friendly.
Review 34:Lake-view rooms in this hotel have a stunning view of lake and Alps in changing weather. Rooms are thoroughly comfortable and provided with many thoughtful details. The staff is outstanding and food excellent. And the lake boats are steps away!
Review 35:Sloppy plastering to cover up repairs around the faucet in bathroom. Loose tiles on bathroom floor. Unacceptable for a property at this caliber and price range.
Review 36:Beautiful property - exquisite decor, soothing colour schemes, wood and soft goods clean and in good condition - close to old town with spectacular views of Lake Geneva. Staff polite and very helpful. Magnificent spa!
Review 37:40 euro for parking Missing coffee/tea making in room Cleaning of the bathroom The smell in the room
Review 38:The service - the staff were very welcoming The decor and atmosphere The location
Review 39:Incredible value, location cannot be beat and this is a luxury, first class hotel with exceptional service. From the parking lot greeting to check-in, from my adhoc hotel tour to my escort to our room, through checkout and back to my car, the service was beyond perfect. The level of luxury and service caught me by surprise.
Review 40:Beautiful property in a great location with very helpful staff that gave great personal service. They really tried to make our stay enjoyable and succeeded. The lake location is beautiful. We were there off season but had great weather and enjoyed long walks by the lake.
Review 41:If I had to pick something it would be that it would have been nice to be able to make ourselves a cup of tea or coffee but it is a luxury hotel. Wish I could have stayed another night and enjoyed the spa facilities. Next time!

Review 51:Not a thing.
Review 52:Loved everything about it. Beautiful, luxurious with a stunning location, free bikes, beautifully decorated interiors, very clean and comfortable. Wouldn't hesitate return.
Review 53:the breakfast was disappointing - although we were quite early a number of dishes had little left and weren't replenished. Also, not the variety of dishes we have seen at many lesser hotels; very annoyingly, a piano tuner was tuning the grand piano right the way throughout breakfast - very noisy and very irritating. Why choose this time to tune the piano? It spoilt the whole ambience of the meal. When I mentioned this as I settled the bill, the receptionist thought it quite funny and said the tuning took a long time so they had to start early.
Review 54:very pleasant staff; fantastic location; high quality dinner; comfortable bed

Review 116:Without a doubt this was the best hotel and the most memorable hotel experience that I've stayed. It was sheer class in everything it did. Nestled in the most fabulous location one could dream of it did blended the history and the swiss setting which had everything for me without being too overbearing which you get with most luxury hotels. Staying with a family brings greater demands and the small personal touches and attention to detail were a pure delight and really appreciated by our young children. Looking forward to coming back again.
