"In operation for almost 160 years, this renowned Belle Époque resort on the shores of Lake Geneva in Lausanne is steeped in important history and culture. The treaty that broke up the Ottoman Empire was signed here in 1923, and guests have included everyone from Charlie Chaplin and Gary Cooper to Rod Stewart and Nelson Mandela. From 2012 to 2014, the hotel received a nearly $30 million makeover, helmed by famed interior designer Pierre-Yves Rochon, which complemented the timeless elegance of all 168 rooms and suites with such luxuries as Murano glass chandeliers, expansive mirrors to bring the views indoors, and entertainment screens discreetly embedded in bathroom mirrors. There are four restaurants on the property, most notably the exquisite Anne-Sophie Pic, whichhas two Michelin stars. In the summer months, the hotel also serves dinner on its own turn-of-the-century, steam-powered paddleboat as it plies the waters of the lake. The state-of-the-art spa, offering a wide selection of restorative treatments, opens up onto the resort’s 10-acre park and includes separate saunas and hammans for men and women, a Jacuzzi, two heated pools (one indoor, one out), and two tennis courts."

A very nice hotel with an exceptional view on Lac Leman. The property itself and the rooms are beautiful. ||Unfortunately, the breakfast experience was not up to a standards of a 5-star hotel. I had to wait quite a long time for an omelet to be ready, and the charged me CHF 14.- for a french toast… When letting the staff know about this issue they did not seem to care, I was told that the host should have informed me about this charge. No one told me nor I expected to be charged for a french toast in a 5-star property. The fruit selection was very limited and again not what I would expect in a property of such level. The pastries were rather dry in the morning. After my stay even a member of the F&B team reached out to me, but they did not show any kind of sympathy or compensation for these issues…||However, my dinner experience in Café Beau-Rivage was really nice, with exquisite food and amazing service. I would highly recommend this restaurant!||As for the hotel, it is very nice, but again if you expect to have a nice breakfast this is not the place.

This may be the best hotel I have ever stayed in. My wife and I have stayed in luxury hotels all over the world, but the Beau-Rivage may top them all. We had a wonderful lakeview room on the 5th floor. The room was gorgeous and meticulously maintained. The staff was all around attentive and helpful. We both used the spa which is beautiful. |We were less impressed with the Cafe where we had dinner. Food was OK but expensive, and not en par with the rest of the property. The only other issue we had was a loud group (clearly a conference group) at breakfast. I was surprised that we were seated next to them. But this was a minor nuisance in an otherwise very pleasant stay

My family and I had enjoyed such a beautiful brunch here back in September 24. The food was very good, but what set the experience apart from other venues was the young harpist who was playing for the duration of our lunch. Her playing was off the scale as far as talent goes, but more than this was the way she subtly engaged with the guests and created a fantastic ambiance which elevated our whole experience. We returned this February with some friends having told them about our experience only to find that the harpist is no longer playing at the hotel due to her contract not being renewed. If this is the case that is such a pity, whilst our food experience was still very good second time around, it was nothing like our first experience!

What an iconic hotel to stay at. A beautiful little romantic escape with my wife. The hotel is full of dedicated thoughts for your journey to be memorable. Little unfortunate breakfast, was a bit long to get served, and buffet was out of food for a while, it was the beginning of local holidays, but still, please anticipate and get more staff at peak periods. This does not affect the rating because I know what you're capable of, as well for processionnal events, as for personnal journey :)

Having spent 27 happy summers at the Rivage Palace Hotel was one of the best things. My husband and I ever did. From the day we arrived to the day we left every attention to detail has been taken care of, and I believe is still being taken care of

I didn't stay at the hotel.. but rooms and facilities look great.. My experience, though at their restaurants, wasn't as expected. The atmosphere and view are great.. service is good. However, food and drinks weren't as expected.. Quite disappointing that they dont even have free parking for customers.. Super expensive..

If you believe in importance of experience; you must visit this hotel. It has a lovely view. I’m not able to rent a room and stay for a night, but I sometimes go there, and order a tea ☕️ which is CHF11, but I can contribute to it’s amazing feeling of beauty and calmness. You can see old people dressing up so beautifully and enjoy their positive energy. If you are in Lausanne, you must spend your time there, at least for a cup of tea and some moment of relaxation. If you want to visit inside, they are welcome and they help you to visit the corridors with photos of all time legends on the walls. Enjoy it ♥️

The rooms, the entire palace was beautiful and luxurious. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. We loved the Guerlain products in the room. Location was perfect- we walked from the train to the metro to the Beau Rivage without difficulty.
