This is the kind of hotel I seek in my travels, but so rarely find. It breathes history, yet is renovated tastefully modern. It hosts extensive public areas (lobby, bar, terrace, pool), yet it retains an intimate touch. There is a fantastic view, yet you are right downtown. There is only one downside: the training level of the service staff... more

We stayed at the Beau Rivage for a week in May for a corporate event. It was slightly last minute, so I was not sure what type of place it would be. Was I EVER impressed. The hotel is spectacular. It is located beside Lake Geneva with extraordinary views of the lake. When you enter the hotel, there is a... more

My husband and I recently stayed at Beau Rivage Palace for four nights in a superior room with a lake view. We almost cancelled our trip but we are very glad we didn't. It was the best hotel we have stayed at (having stayed at various other leading hotels of the world). We arrived 2 hours earlier than the check... more

Just back from 3 nights at the Beau Rivage. This luxury hotel is pure perfection. Welcomed with a smile, kind comments and friendly attitude. 3 days of complete pampering. Everything was perfect. The room, impeccable. The service, flawless. A true 5 star luxury palace. I was a little wary about the hotel being "snobby" after reading some other reviews on... more

Our room was 552 (Superior lake view) and its nice but it doesn’t rely on its Bulgari amenities, or its flat screen TVs, copious flower arrangements... more

I spent Christmas with family at Beau-Rivage Palace in Lausanne. We all came from all over the world to spend Christmas together in this beautiful setting. It was long since I slept so well. I don´t know if it was the peace of the fairyland outside the window with the blueness of the glacial lake of Geneva and the almost... more

We stayed at the Beau Rivage over New Year, and it rapidly became one of my favourite hotels! The hotel is old, and has a place in history - a significant European treaty having been signed there in the early 20th Century. Many grand old hotels struggle to remain up-to-date, but the Beau Rivage remains grand and yet modern. I... more
