Top Lausanne Hotel Reviews

Hôtel des Voyageurs

Hôtel des Voyageurs

10/10 Excellent
"Clean, conveniently located one metro stop from the train station or 10 min walk. It’s close to the Cathedral and other old town attractions, restaurants and shopping. The breakfast was great, but not included, we had to pay 20 CHS/pp. They charged 2 CHS for extra nespresso pods (only 2 provided for 2 night stay). The shower was clogged but fixed upon request. The portable AC came in handy during the heat wave. Overall loved this charming hotel and can recommend it."

"Nice, affordable hotel. The location is wonderful and they provided us the free transportation card for Lausanne which made getting around very easy. There's not anything in the area for breakfast and we ate at the hotel which wasn't expensive and was pretty extensive. We brought a car and parked in the ramp overnight -- yes, there's a fee, but its not out of line with hotels anywhere in the world. The room was spacious for three people with too much luggage. The A/C worked well. The beds were comfortable (my teenager loved the Murphy bed with the "normal mattress"!). The family was all happy."
