Décevant
Pros:

La situation très centrale de l'hôtel.
Sa brasserie avec un personnel très sympathique.

Cons:

Comme annoncé, il y a bien un parking mais payant et uniquement sous réservation, nous avons dû nous rabattre sur un parking public.
La chambre est vétuste et manque d'équipement : pas de machine à café, pas de clim mais un ventilateur très bruyant. impossibilité d'obtenir un double des clés.
Salle de bain minuscule, sommaire et à l'hygiène plus que douteuse (moisissures sur les joints et le bas du lavabo entre autres).
Indigne d'un 3 étoiles et du prix demandé.

Montreux eine schöne Stadt, Hotel würde ich nicht nochmals Buchen, Preis Leistungssystem schlecht!
Pros:

Bett und Matratze waren gut. Lage sehr gut! Empfang war nicht aller erste Sahne!
Frühstück war gut, Personal auch! Zimmer wurden gut gemacht!

Cons:

Dusche war sehr alt! Duschkopf musste ich zuerst aufschreiben weil das Wasser überall rauslief! Aufhängung hat auch nicht gehalten! Sicher das älteste Zimmer wo das Hotel noch hatte!
Haben andere Zimmer angeschaut, Bessere Duschen usw.
