Stunning design you should spend some days before you say “I have lived a good life”
Pros:

Let’s set aside for a moment exceptional service, breathtaking location, and wonderful food.

What truly stayed with me was the interior. Many hotels invest in design, yes, but here, design isn’t something you merely look at. You step into it, you inhabit it and become part of its universe. God, every detail, every texture or surface, and view from every angle feels deeply considered and absolutely breathtaking.

I was so overwhelmed by the experience that I could not help sharing my compliments at check-out. Then I learned the name of the designer: Pierre-Yves Rochon. There was the clue. They say, he is very famous.

The atmosphere resembles the world of 19th-century nobility and makes you feel like a countess or a princess in a grand residence. And yet it never feels old, fragile, or theatrical.

Everything is absolutely elegant and still feels up to date, even modern.

Beautiful fresh flowers are everywhere. Little corners and thoughtful touches made our experience unforgettable: the cutlery in the restaurant, water tap and lights in the lobby WC, bedspread in the room, and even the set of postcards placed in the writing desk.

You should visit this place anyway should you ever travel to Vevey.

Cons:

Pure perfection, nothing to say
