Pros:

Im Inhaber-geführten Hotel ist alles perfekt. Gerne kommen wir wieder, vielleicht schon in den nächsten Tagen mit dem Töff. Unbedingt den Küchengeheimtipp dort versuchen, der Chef ist ein Meisterkoch!

Pros:

Ein schönes historisches Hotel an einem schönen Ort mit diversen Gemeinschaftsräumen. Die Mitarbeiter sind freundlich und hilfsbereit, wenn auch nicht immer 100% professionell. Insgesamt ein schöner Aufenthalt.

Pros:

Un petit coin de paradis ! Tout était parfait. L'accueil de Carla et toute l'équipe pour vous mettre à l'aise dès votre arrivée. Une convivialité assez rare. Un emplacement exceptionnel dans un cadre dont on ne se lasse pas. Les repas d'une grande qualité. Les chambres très agréables. On a juste une envie : revenir! Nous recommandons les yeux fermés !

We were happy to find such a quiet location with good food and possibility to dine on the terrace.
Pros:

Great views from the terrace and very nice meals. An incredible location just above Les Diablerets, surrounded by trees, with views of the peaks and the town.
Charming historic building with old paintings, a family atmosphere.

Absolutely stunning place, view ,service extraordinary
Pros:

My stay at Hotel du Pillon has been absolutely amazing. I felt like home all the way. Peaceful and quiet place with great rooms and facilities. Stunning views of the valley and mountains from the balcony. Dinner at hotel was excellent. Great menu. Caters for everyone’s taste and needs. Francis has been an excellent host, very friendly with a great sense of humour. Carla has been too helpful and hospitable. I wish I had more time to enjoy their hospitality. I wish them well and hope to see them again in future. God speed
